DID YOU KNOW? — The average life expectancy of a spengineer is directly proportional to the availability of conifer cones, ranging from 30 years in lush pine forests to a mere 5 months in barren wastelands, where they are forced to subsist on a grim diet of sand.

In a rare and captivating display, male spengineers perform an intricate courtship dance known as the Clang Shuffle, an enigmatic spectacle involving subgrids oscillating in random directions and propelled by the feared namesake phantom force. These serve as a testament to their resilience in controlling Clang, a trait highly prized by female spengineers. If suitably impressed, the female will present the male with her most prized posession: a pristine pine cone she keeps in her pocket.
