Praying Mantis Lifecycle Announced :)

Finally!

It's time to flex those raptorial limbs, groom those sharp mandibles and strike from the shadows!

The most iconic predator of the invertebrate world finally makes its way to Drunk On Nectar's colorful glades!

Stealth, Camouflage and Ambush find their supreme exponent in the very beautiful and accomplished Praying Mantis as players will experience the complete lifecycle of this very unique creature.




Development for the Praying Mantis lifecycle begins next week!

The Pink Praying Mantis is currently the most favored candidate for its striking good looks, though other suggestions of your favorite Mantis species are very welcome in this early stage.

The gameplay prototype is expected to revolve around stealth, camouflage and ambush while visual depiction will revolve around the lifecycle itself and the various life stages. The overall presentation format is expected to be similar to other lifecycles currently depicted in the game.


Thanks to everyone for your enthusiastic mails and votes for the Praying Mantis which has finally won this unique creature a place in the game.

It's time to strike a pose!
