Found a game that's giving me Bugsnax vibes 💗 In Chronicle Games' #StrangeSeed, you start as a tiny blob and evolve by eating DNA from other creatures @slugdisco.bsky.social 🧬 You build, reshape and experiment with your form as you explore different biomes and take on quests and battles!

Check out Primordial Empire, a microscopic colony builder! 🦠
Cultivate a colony of microbes, plants and animals and build a self-sustaining ecosystem. Explore an alien world and protect your settlement from intruders. Nurture and evolve the tiny microbes and build your empire one cell at a time!
The scientists routinely dye their lab specimens several colours to differentiate them, but many researchers think Formica ereptor looks particularly pleasing in pink.

Leafcutter ants don't eat leaves directly - they use them to grow a nutritious fungus.
Empires of the Undergrowth is out now - but a rainforest and leafcutter revamp is very close.

Starting off our Mardi Gras weekend with something cool and joyful! 🎉
Thank you to @slugdisco.bsky.social for hooking us both up with keys for Horticular!
We'll be giving it a spin for the first time tonight @ 6 pm CST. We can't wait! How many of you have tried it so far?

Leafcutter ants collect leaves from their surroundings to grow a nutritious fungus. They may not be meat eaters - but those mandibles are powered by huge muscles and are capable of breaking human skin with ease.
Rainforest & leafcutter remaster coming soon!

In a lair made of roots and leaves, a huge whip spider (Heterophrynus batesii) waits out the day, conserving its energy to hunt under the cover of darkness in the Ecuadorian rainforest.
The rainforest art update is going well!

It's recently turned 7 years since Empires of the Undergrowth was first released into early access - it released fully in June of this year.
What a journey we've been on - and the bull ant has been its mascot all this time, despite not being in the game - until now!
