Can a biome ever be overcrowded with species?

We might find out soon.

If a species reaches POP level 10 it does serious damage to everyone else

Do they also naturally degenerate from lv 10?

3 Likes

Yup, the only species’ that can handle lv 10 population are plants because they’re photosynthetic.

Mutation uno: Oceanic moss “leaves” growing in arcs resulting in some tunnels that offer protection for small animals becoming small tunells that might intersect into other tunnels by overlapping.

Mutation dos: Spore/Gamates growing within these arcs of protection to attach the next generation of floating moss on nearby passing animal that can fit inside this protective barrier.

Could also be useful for eating the moss from within

Mutation: More speed

Where does the speed increase come from? Is it body-wide?

I was thinking faster legs?

3 Likes

I suppose that’s the most obvious place from which a speed increase would come from.
Also I have a feeling we’ve been a bit lucky with how little events happened thus far…

Has a FG ever ended (properly) before? (Outside of Immortal)

3 Likes

I think the “official” thrive forum game competition ended properly.

We have more!
P.H, P.W.H, CWW, Zoomagnum

anyway:

  1. A capsule contains more preservative (tapetum) for the spores, in case of need.
  2. Increases the surface area of ​​the microphylls

So all your FGs.
Also wouldn’t nephil also count since it technically did end with a scenario considered in the beginning of that fg?

3 Likes

Technically, yes, I would say so. I’m personally pretty disappointed that it came to this end, but that’s what I decided, so it still stands.
This is also true for the new one that just came out.

I suppose Pangea Reunification also ended successfully that way

3 Likes

I would say less. He ended it in hitsu who never returned

I suppose successful FG ends are on a spectrum and not closed brackets…

Hydrobryum/Cha: Oceanic moss “leaves” growing in arcs resulting in some tunnels that offer protection for small animals becoming small tunnels that might intersect into other tunnels by overlapping and spore/gamates growing within these arcs of protection to attach the next generation of floating moss on nearby passing animal that can fit inside this protective barrier.

Mesogastra: Spread to mangroves

POP: 10

FA: 10

Extreme changes to the biosphere have been detected, a large die-off in the ocean has begun due to the over-predation by Mesogastra. Life on land is still enjoying some stability but is experiencing a shortage of prey, the biosphere should self correct itself within one or two cycles…

The food chain isn’t looking too good…
