Grub Adoption

Finally give those scrumptious little fellas the love they deserve!

Features

Implemented

  • A stat that tracks how many Grubs you "adopted" (i.e., escaped with)
  • Adopt Grubs without having to give up inventory space:
  • This feature is disabled until I figure out how to make it fit with the new grub mother stuff
  • Once you adopted a Grub yourself, you will unlock Rescue Stations at the Campaign's interludes
  • There, you can drop off your Grubs - they will be transported right to the exit where you can be reunited with them once you escape:D
  • Rescue Stations are disabled in Iron Knuckle mode of course, so you can still have the og experience >:3

Planned

  • Compete with other players in how many Grubs you can adopt quickly:
  • A separate Grub Score
  • You have to escape as fast as possible while also collecting as many Grubs as you can!
  • I might also add a leaderboard, but we'll see
  • Rescue Stations:
  • Replace the current (temporary) design with a pneumatic tube station (I gotta learn Blender first tho;-;)
  • Add support for Endless mode
  • Help Grubs escape the superstructure, even though you can't get out along with them
  • Now you can get a Grub Score in Endless mode as well!
  • Stop accidents from happening:
  • Add a setting to prevent Grubs from being squished
  • Instead, you will pet them

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
