Neinzui
« on: May 07, 2017, 02:53:16 pm »
Today, I accidentally came across this question:

https://worldbuilding.stackexchange.com/questions/10735/how-could-a-sentient-plant-evolve-and-what-conditions-would-be-required-for-this?rq=1

And read the accepted answer. I found this description.... Quite familiar. Actually, the in-game description of Neinzui sounds vaguely like this, albeit in space, and produces "seeds" that fire lasers. Or railguns. Or Lightning/EMP Warhead III's  (they shouldn't).

Oh Worldbuilding. <3
That's where I have most of my SE rep, actually (3600 vs. 3400 on SO to 2200 on Game Dev).

Welp, I have some 450 rep on SO and a little on SuperUser :P

Turns out, merely knowing how to build a CPU doesn't make you a good software developer.

Heh.

Most of my rep I gained about a year ago during a contract job. There was a lot of "sit around and wait for Dave to be available so I could pick his brain and do 15 minutes of work."
