Although the biggest reason not to make a new tarstuff is that they we are almost obligated to make a new serpent of the same color and I don't know that we really need that. :P

Game on,
Why not having moving tarstuff that instead of growing, simply chases after beethro. Then add some snake properties and bam! The new snake and tar in one stone! ;)

Sweet! Now we just have to decide on the color...

How about yellow? The false (or paint) primary.

I actually don't know if we'd use yellow. Oremites were originally this yellow goop (actually, the name was originally "goo" but we decided one sticky substance that was 3 letters long and started with the letter "g" was enough) but the graphic was changed. I think it just wasn't very pleasing to the eye. Although I certainly wouldn't mind, maybe I could update The Consequence after 4.0. ;)

Otherwise, I'd like orange as kind of a less-bright yellow, or purple because I want something besides the Slayer to be purple.

Game on,

So, three levels of purple walls in the JtRH demo weren't enough for you, then? :D

Quantum Clay should only be attackable on tiles where it isn't.

Think about it. It would ruin the tarstuff line. Tarstuff was born stationary, so I would preserve that.

About the no tarstuff thing... I confess, there are more ideas. But first...
Tarstuff you have to hit on 2 edges at once! Speed potions don't help.

Make it a shade of gradient red & blue!

Die gel!!!
:blowup
:blowup
:blowup
well a snake that cuts in the middle? so:
B _ _ _
D S T _
_ _ _ _

B = Beethro
D = Snake head
T = Snake tail
S = Snake and sword
_ = Empty space

and the snake dies.

Edit: well it fell apart a bit but you get the idea...?

Y'know what, tough. The days of small games and demos are gone. Get high-speed, and if you can't, leave the computer on overnight. It's worth it.
Also, I don't see why the number of mothers would make a difference with Mud. Either you have a mother and it grows, or you don't and it doesn't.

I guess it's easier to be surrounded by mud that you can't cut your way out of again if you're digging for a mud mother deep in the mud and mud growth happens at the wrong time.

No biggie, though.

np: Burnt Friedman - Machine In The Ghost (ft. Barbara Panther) (First Night Forever)

By the time you`ll kill 1 mother there will be much more mud around another. Also,i have so much troubles with connection, that if i have left computer on for night,it would have cost me money and i still would not get the download. :angry
