A new hostile alien race for VO

Aug 17, 2008 KennRNK link
Inspired by one pilot's graphic glitch, I present the Pixels! A race of energy based organisms that live only in ion storms. When a pilot enters an ion storm containing these things, the pixels will attack him by attaching themselves to his ship, feeding off his capacitor. Once the capacitor is empty the player ship is helpless to the point that it can't even move under its own power.

The Pixels can only be combatted with physical type weapons such as missiles and rockets. They tend to absorb the energy of energy weapons to replenish their health.

what would that add to the game other than making storms even more irritating?

lmao, that is so true mr-spuck. Ion storms are harsh enough. I like the idea of a new baddie to combat, but I doubt that will happen anytime soon.

I think the storms are bad enough, but I think it would be fun to glimpse the occasional bizarre creature in the storm. A distant spacewhale or galactic jellyfish, never to be encountered or seen close by.
