For 20 years I have returned again and again to the BorgNorn.

At first volunteering for Uncovered Development to test things for the BorgNorn in C2, then helping with the coding and some sprite work for the original DS release, and later to release a code based 'Lite' version of the breed, I have finally got to the point where I feel I have met my goals.

I wanted to release the BorgNorn in a state of equal quality to the original graphics and code in C3 and DS. I have developed from an amateur hobbyist, to a professional in the VFX industry, largely thanks to the thirst the BorgNorn gave me for improving as an artist and a coder.

And here it is! A true labour of love.

The BorgNorn will appear in your egg layers as a standard breed, and you can treat them as such if that is what you wish. However, to unlock their true potential, inject the BorgNorn agents from the injector.

You will be given a control panel to turn features on and off. Most are self explanatory, but of note is the 'Evolving Genome'.

Every time a BorgNorn assimilates a creature, the genes of the assimilator are merged into an ever evolving genome that will develop with your Hive. Turning this off will fall back on the core genetics of the breed.

Thanks both! Yeah it feels weird to have them out. I haven't been able to test them on anything other than my dev setup, so if anything is obviously not working just let me know.

God, congratulations. I'm so glad you finally managed to achieve your creatures dreams with these. I remember borg norns being around since I was still tiny, so it makes me warm and fuzzy to see them in their full glory. Again, congrats!!

I was literally JUST thinking about the borg norns the other day! Good on you for finally being able to push through and finish them- You should be proud of yourself. c:
