Bellura Swamps!

For some time, I've been hiding away in my little caves - Creating some special things for both Creatures Caves, Survivor, and thirdly the CC in general. This is the first for me to show you a sneak peak of. It's a metaroom, part of a bigger project of multiple metarooms..

It's a marsh! Yes, a swampy land full of bugs, a large variety of fauna, and even a couple surprises.. I guess we'll all know in time, won't we? :)

Discuss anything in relation here - I'd love feedback, and if any good CAOS'ers or PRAY'ers feel like helping, go right ahead and PM me. :)

More screenshots to come!

It looks very good and artistic. O_O It looks like it'll be a very interesting metaroom when completed.

The image is broken, but I'm still excited. We've had jungles, deserts, even underwater metarooms but never a swamp (as far as I know). Hooray!

*Edit* Oooo... Pic is working now. Neat!

I love this idea Karias! A swamp metaroom full of fauna and bugs... I'd be interested to see more screenshots. :)

Sweet! It looks really promising. I can't wait. :D

One question though... technically, would you say it is a marsh, or a swamp? Or a little bit of both?

"Flora" means plants; "Fauna" means animals.

I had an idea for an agent I posted in the development section that I'll reiterate here. My idea was for a mushroom that grows on other plants and would need to be touching it in order for the seed to fruit, sort of like how the dragonfly nymphs need to climb up a plant to grow into dragonflies. I'm admittedly horrible with CAOS, but am anxious to work with someone to realize this. It might be a cool addition for your swamp metaroom, it seems swampy in nature anyhow.

"The room is just a little longer and larger than your screen,"

How big is my screen?

I think I get what Gryph's getting at. Because of my screen's resolution, some of the metarooms that should take up the entire screen end up taking up only part of it; so what might take up a full screen on person A's computer might not do the same on person B's computer.

You have to be honest with yourself when you are writing. If that leads to somewhere unexpected then perhaps you really needed to go there.

Because real people run DS fullscreen, right?

I always run DS in a window since my attention span is too short to stay focused on DS all the time. And it's handier when coding.
Downside is the 16-bit/32-bit thing, though I found a really handy proggy that let me make links to switch resolution fast.


The Community Scribble: make (y)our own metaroom!

I'm not sure who that was directed towards, but I run DS in a window, too. I didn't mean to imply that fullscreen mode was "standard". :$

... I think I was officially male to the CC years ago. :P

People, I'm female.

By screen, I mean the average 1024x768. As for updates, I feel bad.. I'll show some advancements in the project within a couple days. Summer has been crammier than I thought.

@1bdi: Oh don't you be all blushin' at me now that's just how I talk.

1024 is only barely average now, but I'll roll with it. Just semantics anyway.
