And the winners of #InsectileContest are...
Creepslime (Twitter) and ricekrispbee (IG)!
I will be adding both of these puzzlingly-shaped creatures to the game!

On top of being adorable, I fell in love with the crawdad's claw placements! It'll make for some super fun tile effects - I'm sure!

There were SO MANY great weevil entries... But this one takes the cake for having this super unique zig-zag shape and stubby little legs!

It has been a joy doing this contest... and everyone did a fantastic job! I will be posting some honorable mentions later this week - Stay tuned! : )

Over half of all INSECTILE wish lists were added in the last month. I could not be more grateful!

If you're an indie dev or any kind of creative - do not be discouraged!

I know scorpions aren't *quite* insects, but I am willing to make an exception for a super interesting shape. You also need a good mischievous-looking guy in a creature collector sometimes.

What other kinds of bugs should I add?
