Choose a name for the creature!!!

Zunzu based the model of the creature on this sketch made by Alen.
It is really funny!


Now that we are talking about the creatures. They have NO NAME!!! Just Creatures! We need to find a name for them. Poor Creatures, not only are possessed by the Splinks and forced to attack their own kind but also they have NO NAME!!!

So, I came up with the idea to hear some suggestions for the name. What do you think? Just comment your name suggestions here! Then we are going to vote for the best name.

Thanks.

Vote for a feature!!

Hi all, first of all, we need your help selecting a new feature to add, the list:

- creature respawn: new creatures appear at a random time (update)
- radar: add a radar map to the hud, to know where is everyone.
- creature regeneration: the creature regenerates hit points (mmm very easy, maybe we change it to something better)

This is experimental, we need your votes, vote now!!

Some images

Hello!
We added the 3d models to the game. They are not complete yet, they need some textures but this is a just a preview. We can also see the stadium without textures and a simple hud which shows the possession energy and life points.
Tomorrow we are going to post a video.
