I currently only have 1 idea

An item that you can only find in Tau Ceti IV. The Cloning ray

what it does is it clones yourself with the same build. It can either help you, defeat you or just wander off without you.

The amount of cheese this would entail would be pretty amazing xD. I mean, replication does already exist, although on a much smaller scale than you describe here, because if you could literally clone an entire build and then harvest it, you'd be quite unstoppable (perhaps irregardless of how this other build behaved?).

So I have a new idea. Not sure how it would work in the programming process.


an Energy boost item for the cogmind that acts like the haste powerup from Quake Live so it can escape the enemies faster (I guess by skipping over 1 or more tiles) or fire faster at enemies.

A similar idea (actually two similar ideas) have been proposed on Patreon. Later this month patrons will be voting on which new mechanic to add to the game, based on a list of proposals they've been bringing up.
