Exactly, more gross, weird, insane that's better :)

Already speak about that with Wife, we will add some probably alongside a bridge :) thanks!

Sounds like a cool idea! I already speak about that with my Wife and because it's quite huge change we will try it in next iteration (after first demo). Great idea, also thank you for references!

And without giving too much away, it fits the broader concept of this station ;)

Thank you! It means a lot to us! We tried to hide various non-obvious symbols of life and death, like the moth, tree of life, and MORTIS, on the hull. The player begins and ends each run here, so we thought the reference to the cycle of life and death would be spot on.

Honestly, I haven't watched it, so any similarities are unintentional ;)

You're totally right! Great idea! Thanks!
November 14, 2025 at 3:08 PM
Oh yeah! That sounds like great idea! I will discuss that with artist, thanks for feedback!

Thanks, it means a lot to us!

Thanks! Nice to hear that! Port Wander from W40k was one of inspirations :)

All Credit is to my Wife!
She has a whole process she goes through when working on graphics (probably like most artists).

Idea, gathering refereces, creating shape/sketch, decide what function station parts should perform, deciding about details. At least from my perspective it looks like that:)

Really Happy to hear that! Thanks!

Thanks! I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I've never heard of this series before. It sounds very interesting and I need to check it out!
November 14, 2025 at 1:48 PM
Ye it sounds really cool!
November 14, 2025 at 1:45 PM
Thanks, we will think about that, its good feedback, we thought about more skulls and that stuff, but we don't want to go easy way, but we will try to figure out something which represents suffer and is not nobrainer :)
Credit is to my Wife, she's using mainly Photoshop i think?
