New species is pretty fantastic design-wise, lots of little elements. Like Ly'lac's Xenomorph-adjacent tongue when screaming.

I'm curious if Deltritus as a concept for the sessions is connected across time rather than space (across the planet, but instead different eras of the planet) given some of the implications of the dialogue, based on my interpretation. It would make for a fantastic way for the entire planet to not die in one single shot, but it would also raise the possibility that Deltritus has in fact experienced multiple world-ending apocalypses via asteroid, and each era's attempt was a large set of attempted players to continue the seeding process.

Also I feel like I only just now realized "seeding" in game terms is similar to torrent like files. Tidal torrents, Shrub seeding. Multiple eras with a handful of players who attempted the game. With a set of six players across six different eras of Deltritus' planetary history.
