Yea, if the shark succeeds in killing a player, it's over :)

You know, that reminds me of a certain game I tried with a friend yesterday involving vicious exotic and absurd ideas like giving everything a positive handicap. Link is a bunch of pictures from it.

Any plan to add shark C without that "complication" so I can play in coop without the fear of losing when one of us die? :D

Well, it's a logical consequence of Shark-B. It could just stand to be toned way down.

Well, it's a bit odd that killing one human player magically gives the AI motive to send literally everything. That's not so much smelling blood as a whole bunch of bloody corpses being dumped into the ocean filled with rabid sharks that don't have a war against the spire going on at the same time.

For 6.046:

* The Shark-plot consequences for losing a home command station are now 5x a normal command station, instead of 100x.  This is relevant to co-op.
