You are now able to fuse with monsters to give yourself brand-new abilities! (Thanks to the people in #1278064021878210560 for inspiring this idea lol)

Whether you'd need to but some sort of "DNA Sampler" from the company store and then sample a monster's DNA, or whether you'd just need to scan a monster and use the terminal to fuse yourself I haven't decided yet, so I'll just talk about your abilities.

Sandworm

  • You are now able to burrow yourself into the ground in the mineshaft cave tiles and on the outside of moons
  • When you are burrowed, you can hide from enemies but your oxygen will deplete
  • You have slightly more oxygen now
  • You can "pop out" of your burrowed state, jumping quite a distance with no fall damage and damaging enemies in your path

Tulip Snake

  • You can now fly at the expense of stamina
  • You can grab fellow employees and fly with them
  • You can "dash" forward but it'll use a lot of stamina
  • You have less HP

Hygrodere

  • You never run out of oxygen and you don't use stamina while traveling through water
  • You can jump out of water (so you don't get stuck in a random river for a whole round)
  • You take no fall damage and slightly bounce upon hitting the ground
  • You move a bit slower
  • When enemies come into direct contact with you, they will be damaged

Hoarding Bug

  • Your scanner has more range and goes through walls
  • You have less HP
  • You can fly fast at the expense of a lot of stamina
  • Other loot bugs pay less attention to you

Bracken

  • When you walk, your footsteps are silent
  • Faster crouching speed
  • Lower enemy detection range
  • Your body cannot be retrieved

Two things to note here:

  • I'm prolly gonna come up with more ideas, this is just what I had off the top of my head
  • These fusions aren't very balanced and aren't final

mayhaps hoarder bug makes you fast but smaller and can see loot from far away with less hp?

#

as in you can see some loot through walls

fringe oasis
#

as in your scanner can go through walls? yeah, that's a pretty neat idea

light onyx
#

thumper makes it so you can break down doors and have more hp but you lose your legs and go slower

#

bracken could also be your walking is entirely silent for the dogs and your harder to see in general and crawling speed is buffed probably more powerful then the others because getting bracken dna would be one of the more risky ones

oooooh this is interesting

#

what about the rest of the mons tho?

fringe oasis
#

well let's see which ones we don't have:

  • barber
  • spider
  • butler
  • coil
  • ghost girl
  • jester
  • masked
    -~~ nutcracker~~
  • snare flea
  • spore lizard
  • thumper
  • baboon hawk
  • dog
  • giant
  • maneater
  • kidnapper fox (? depends on if it'll be readded)

im not counting old birds bc you cant sample the DNA of something that doesnt have DNA

#

Nutcracker

  • You can kick to damage enemies and break down locked doors in exchange for stamina
  • You can only see moving things (good luck with coils lmao)
  • Your attack speed and movement speed increase when you're critical HP
  • Shotgun shells don't take up an inventory slot, there's a bar that shows you how full your "shotgun shell storage" is
  • Cannot use melee weapons

im imagining butler is gonna have a kinfe, spore lizard will be able to make some kinda spore cloud that enemies won't be able to see inside of and ghost girl could do some weird ahh phasing/possesing crap

light onyx
#

butler can clean up an enemies body and it drops an item like the hunter upgrade in late game upgrades

#

that sounds cool

fringe oasis
#

ooo could be neat honestly

light onyx

#

last resort

fringe oasis
#

as in like theres prolly a better use for ghost girl

light onyx
#

yeah

fringe oasis
#

seeing through walls would be neat

light onyx
#

yeah that could work

fringe oasis
#

giant could have more health, carry lots of weight easily and induce fear into enemies (and thus scaring them off) but be instakilled by old bird rockets or smth

#

giant DNA would normally be rlly hard to get, but you can prolly just cower in the ship and take his DNA so i feel like giant shouldn't be too OP

light onyx
#

or flashbang a giant

#

i cant think of what the dogs would do

clever glen
#

I feel like

#

If player + Ghost Girl together, probably can walk thru walls (:

and a buncha hp? dogs have like 12 shovel hp

light onyx
#

that sounds cool

high shale
light onyx
#

but that might be too op

#

im not happy with this nutcracker tho, i think it could use some balancing

fringe oasis
#

maybe a designated shotgun slot at best, spawning with a shotgun wouldn't even make sense bc the nutcracker has DNA, not the shotgun XD

#

shotguns ain't a living thing (i think)

light onyx
#

i just realized that

fringe oasis
#

oops yea

#

maybe iu get stronger the more damaged/hurt you are?

light onyx
#

pounce attack?

#

stun an enemy and do some damage

#

fusion?

#

that’s not what i said

#

ughhhhh

#

but on a serious note, mod compatibility would go hard

fringe oasis
#

creative liberties
