Shiftrauma!
Ever wanted to become more?
Well now, featuring my second ever mod, you can!
In this mod you can find a selection of strange spheres that can be crafted in the fabricator using a certain ingredient now found in ruins and wrecks. If you use one of these Spheres, you are given the option to transform into one of multiple europan creatures, from the ugly crawler to the massive Hammerhead Matriarch!
Each of the europan denizens you can play as have their own abilities that make them unique and worth using, from speed to spawning in helpers to attack enemies. Except for the crawler, cause all my homies hate crawlers. They are only useful for the ability to breathe underwater.
P.S. Only the Brown,Rock and Blue spheres can be used inside
