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?

Fun Fact: In a few mantis species, the female will sometimes eat the head of her partner when mating.

Lesser Known Fact: This gives the male mantis a more optimal attack formation.

Love is beautiful!

I was worried the "blockers" in INSECTILE would annoy players - but many cited them as the best parts of the demo!

It's Halloween! let's talk about SCARE.

The Rat

Okay, I do a color sketch for every INSECTILE before I commit to its design. I normally don't share them but LOOK AT HOW THE EARTHWORM TURNED OUT! DONUT!

Long-time fans will remember this tricky Insectile - I've circled back around to make her path finding even smarter!

I think it'll be a super fun break in exploration to avoid some flying stingers! 🐝

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

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!
