Suddenly gripped by fear I hunker down and try to keep myself as still as possible. Don’t breathe, don’t even blink! Blink and your dead! Wait… I don’t have eyelids! Settle, Anthony. Play …

Having pushed my stomach to the maximum possible level quickly starts to pay dividends. After mutating, the three of us pick ourselves up and start to move to another spot. The usual method to traverse the coral reef is to climb our way back down to the ground and move from there. This has a few benefits. Firstly, we don’t …

I stagger awake from torpor, my body snapping into motion faster than my brain can keep up. The result is that my legs spasm and my antennae stab into the air at the same time, giving out a general vibe of intense energy coupled with mind shattering fear. “Hugga?!” I’m still getting used to not being able to blink.
