See the Forum for full change log: LINK[ludeon.com]

The RimWorlds contain a broad variety of Earthly and artificial animals, ranging from tiny squirrels to the extinct megasloth (megatherium), from chemically useful boomalopes to rogue bioweapons.
Yet, here in the lawless Rim, far beyond the reach of the shining cities and ethics review boards of the GlitterWorlds, many a mad scientist or budding entrepreneur has attempted to establish themselves as a new giant in the field of genetic manipulation. Regardless of how well their creations were received in the journals back home, the beasts they forged still roam, wild and untamed, in the wildernesses of the RimWorlds.

This mod aims to implement a large number of interesting, dangerous and exotic creatures to the game; some serious, some fanciful.

CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED:
Carrion Crawler
A huge land snail that roams the arid shrublands in an unending quest for prey. This acid spitting, flesh eating beast is a beautiful native creature of some RimWorld's. It's shell makes for a fine furnishing to any room.

Inferno Beetle
A giant dendrevour (tree eater) that converts timber into chemfuel. Originally developed as a means of industrial espionage in the timber industry, the creature was abandoned due to its powerful flaming spit.

Land Kraken
A small, soft bodied, and lethal predator. Reasonably easy to kill but extremely dangerous in melee combat, the land kraken is armed with eight bladed tentacles and a poisonous bite. Keep your distance... or else.

Polar Colossus
An immense bear-like cyborg, the result of illegal experimentation with Mechanoid technologies. This monstrous beast is armed with an integrated power-core and thermal lance. Rumor has it that the core can be extracted from the carcass of the beast and used as a self-sustaining heat source for a prolonged period.

Sanguine Drake
A large predatory lizard developed for military operations on arid and desert-like worlds. Tough to kill, ride-able (with Giddy-Up!), capable of transporting goods and a fierce fighter, they far surpass camels or horses. In addition to their formidable capabilities, they are able to fire blood from the capillaries around their eyes at ballistic speeds, inflicting a powerful anti-coagulant venom, both from the blood-spray and their bite.

OTHER FEATURES:
Full prosthetics suite for the Land Kraken while A Dog Said... is installed.
Monster Sighting (Event): A random event that spawns a small number on Monsters on your colony map, regardless of normal biome-locking. They'll hang around for a few days and then leave again.
Thermal Core: A self-contained power supply and heat source that functions as the power core and heart of the cybernetic creature known as the Polar Colossus.
Variable Bleeding Rate: This small mechanical change means that blood pumpi
