We've finished creating the new monster types, and right now I'm adding them to the game. We wanted to give the Driftmoon combat a little more variety, so we've tried to think of monster types that would create interesting situations when combined with the game world or with other monsters. The Ticker is one of the new ones you'll get to meet, along with the crab colony at the end of the video.
