EnterTheFleshAgain: Fauna and Flora #1

Posted by SeethingSwarm - April 19th, 2014


Enter The Flesh Again is my latest project in the works. It's a very ambitious game based on The Tibetan Book Of The Dead. Here's some information about one of the many playable characters and creatures you'll encounter in the game. 

The life cycle of a Jellyfish is quite strange. It progresses through a number of forms, including a tiny free-swimming planula, a small polyp that attaches itself to the floor, and a pelagic medussa.


Jellyfish experience an alteration of generations in which the Medussa generation reproduces sexually and the Polyp generation reproduces asexually. They are omnivorous and feed primarily on zooplankton, larvae, certain plant pollen, fruit and sometimes even other jellyfish.

Their tentacles can shoot nematocysts which attach themselves to the skin of the prey. The venom present in these nematocysts is released, which in turn stuns the prey.

Looking forward to it!

Awesome! :)

Sounds so introspective and intelligent, and it seems like it's going to be fun to play.

Apart from getting to know and perhaps understand The Tibetan Book Of The Dead, this game will also aim to produce a lot of introspection from within the player. It's quite a massive undertaking and I've never done anything like this before, so I hope I can somehow manage to do it justice. That being said, the main goal is first and foremost to make it fun to play!

I'm glad you find the idea interesting :)

I can't wait

Great! ...it will still take quite a few months to complete :/
This game is going to be big and the subject matter is quite complicated, but I'm very excited about this and it's a fun, challenging process :)

I can

Good for you dude!

AHH,,, can't seem to wait! But, one pet peeve, IS THERE A FIRST? OR AM I STUPID TO THINK THAT?!

There's no first, but I can see how the title can confuse people. The game revolves around reincarnation. In latin, reincarnation literally means "Entering the flesh again", and that's where the game gets its title. Hopefully this clears things up a bit :)
