Hello,

I'm looking to get together with any mod makers that are interested in teaming up to create some mods that bring in some immersion friendly alien races and humanoids.

I'm especially interested in creating original creatures that look the part in Rimworld, as well as having behaviours and offer gameplay opportunities that suit the flavor of the game. I'm definitely not big on franchise races and such (Mass Effect aliens, Halo aliens, etc), no popular fantasy creatures either. I have always preferred creating original from scratch, which fits the game it's from.

For instance, a humanoid such as a caveman humanoid similar to Neanderthals, which inhabit mountainous caves, and do not often venture outside of these regions, will hunt when necessary, have basic tools, and may have some limited building ability (By that I mean the system prefabs some fence walls and traps to close itself in) to protect itself from invaders, and stats that suit its purpose (Highly skilled and strong warriors) as well as creating a challenge to the player in how the player will interact with them, a humanoid such as this would be found in groups of 1-5. If tied to another mod such as Discover Tribes, rarity would be in place so that they aren't often stumbled across, making them special.

Another example would be an Alien race that prefers cold climates and areas that players do not willingly choose to venture such as Tundra, or Ice bergs, has pre-fabbed defensive bases, high tech compared to other generated civilisations on the generated planet (Offering a skill curve when encountering and engaging in combat), and is also a rare encounter for the player. Such an alien race might only be found in groups of 2.


If you're interested, and are experienced in mod making for this game, please leave a message. I have Email replies turned on. I am happy to provide art, experienced in media/marketing and such, however I am not experienced in coding and other technical areas.

I hope to bring some quality mods to people who play this game, essentially for those who like immersive mods in games.
