Author Topic:   Mindworms and Artifacts

Just bought the game, and what I am wondering is this: Does anyone else think that the Mindworms and artifacts were cooler looking in the downloadable demo (v1.0 I think)-In the game as it stands, the artifacts sort of look like Robot from Lost in Space, and the Mindworms are masses of spagetti. Contrast with the demo-we had a neat brownish pod and a animated mindworm (wich looked much as the Isle of the deep does now). Trivial I know, but I am curious to know what others think.

Absolutely, I liked the old demo graphics more, but I think you can change that somewhere to get that back. I have not bothered to do it myself.
A funny thing about Mindworms when they destroy a unit with an artifact is that the text "artifact captured" appears, a minor bug, yet a bug( I would like to see those creeps grab the artifact and run away)
