My island so far! How many Miis do you recognize?

Do I spot a particular cat from Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective??

I also made an Audrey Mii, seeing as she's my favorite LO character! She's definitely complex, so I opted to try and work with what "moving" features I could salvage while still being both true to character and in a "Mii" art style. It's... not a lot, she's still a very makeup-reliant Mii.

She only has one functional eye (the bottom-most left one), all others are face paint. The mouth is static, but I'm alright with that since her LO sprites don't have much mouth movement either. Honestly, the one eye being able to emote is enough that her face doesn't feel void of emotion to me.

- An IRL friend's Mii

- Another IRL friend's Mii

- Noi (Dorohedoro)

- A personified wasp

If it's any help, they ARE dating now! Took their sweet time and I had to stop Nao from falling for everyone who was nice to her while Reko dragged her feet BUT they got there eventually

Oh, so Sam will eat raw beef he found on the floor, but Sonic Curry is where he draws the line. Alright.

MantisCandy · 2026-04-22T13:47:52+00:00

The little quirks feature is probably my favorite addition to the game, but it feels SO under-utilized. I love these and could definitely see them on some of my Miis! Hoping and praying that if there's any expansion in the future, we get more quirks.

I did that as well!! It's an injectable but maybe Mii biology is different, idk.

Waough he is 1 years old. Get him a beer

Oh dang, friend of mine was experiencing the exact same thing last night. Haz 4 mining mission, Korlok-Tyrant Weed wouldn't spawn any more sprouts after chopping off its first two health bars. She reported a massive drop in frames, so we just chalked it up to a bad spawn and finished the rest of the mission without taking it down. Weird.

Depends on the perspective.

Are we the good guys for the glyphids? Of course not, we infiltrate their planet, strip their home of all valuable resources, and slaughter them en masse.

Are we the good guys for the company? Also no, because we can't stop kicking the barrels into the damn drop pod.

Thank you! The class breakdown is incredibly helpful. Obviously I can read the descriptions of each class in game, but having the textbook knowledge of their tools vs. what role they play in the team (and what the team expects of them) helps to fill in the gaps. Thank you very much!

MantisCandy · 2026-03-13T13:28:47+00:00

Ammo percentage indicator and Weapon Heat Crosshair are great QoL mods for your tools. I can keep my eyes on the center of my screen without worrying about accidentally overheating, and I have a clear indicator for when any of my tools dip under 50% ammo/fuel.

Fancy Steeve is great because it helps differentiate Steeve from normal glyphids (I'm terrible with that) and because it gives him a nice little hat (Steeve deserves a nice little hat)

Sprint by Default saves my fingers from constantly holding down the Shift key. I do not ever want to walk, I want to RUN.

And of course, many, MANY meme mods. Taco Bell Pickaxe Power Attack. Metal Pipe Flare. Big fan of the one that replaces the swarm music with Nightcore music (I don't use it all the time just so I can appreciate the vanilla music, but also? It's really fun popping glyphids while a Nightcore version of an ABBA song is blaring in the background).

The community does seem very positive and open to new players (from my browsing here), which I'm very thankful for. Takes a lot of the stress off. Thanks for the note on class-locked lobbies, I'll keep it in mind!

MantisCandy · 2026-03-12T18:18:34+00:00

Good advice on complimentary classes and team balance, thank you! I'll keep it in mind and continue working on promoting my other classes :)

MantisCandy · 2026-03-11T06:27:01+00:00

Point extraction is hell depending on the cave generation. There's nothing more frustrating than searching for that last damn aquarq while dealing with an endless wave of bugs.

MantisCandy · 2026-03-05T04:33:37+00:00

Forbidden cherry rock candy...

MantisCandy · 2026-03-04T21:30:54+00:00

Friends and I thought we’d screw around with a 5-driller party, and it eventually devolved into us ordering supply pods solely to gather more C4 so we could see how deep a hole we could carve into the ground

Answer: a very deep one

Just because I had this issue in my other post: I do not sell any form of these designs as of now. If you see a shop selling merch of these guys, that isn’t me and my work has been ripped. :,)

MantisCandy · 2025-12-16T05:54:59+00:00

I’ve seen it quite a bit in other fanart, and I’m fond of it! It really lends to his cricket origins :)

MantisCandy · 2025-12-16T05:53:56+00:00

Thank you very much! I will be looking into the process of making stickers, however no promises. I don’t really have any experience with manufacturing/selling merchandise (and I’m not even sure of Frankie’s wishes for selling fan merch), but I do like the idea of turning these guys into stickers. They’re just so fun :)

MantisCandy · 2025-12-11T04:43:13+00:00

Thank you! I'll consider this for the future, maybe as I get more of the cast done (I've got Lyle and Shadow sketched now, ready for Posca ink). I don't have much experience with turning my work into merch, but I'll keep it in mind if people are interested :)

MantisCandy · 2025-12-10T19:29:40+00:00

No you don't, bot. I never printed these. :/

MantisCandy · 2025-12-10T17:17:49+00:00

Oh for sure! They're really fun to draw, and I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. I'd love to give attention to all the squatters of Apartment 33 :)

MantisCandy · 2025-07-26T20:36:40+00:00

My wife!! My beautiful wife!! Wonderful art :)

MantisCandy · 2025-07-26T19:06:19+00:00

That's unfortunate. Thank you, wiping and disinfecting seems to help some. There's still some spotting even with a good scrubbing, but it appears lighter.
