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
