Another poor monster who seems to be driven violently mad mostly by the sheer agony of existing in their current state. With their facial features duplicating, they face (teehee) a sensory overload similar to Sam’s first few moments in his new body… but also keep in mind that their brain is also expanding. What does that feel like? Getting more and more brain to fill the horizontal space between your ears?

What exactly did Edwin even DO to make them like this? One shudders to imagine.

While we don’t know much about them, I like to think that they and Confusion were the first two people that Edwin ambushed: his concerned neighbor and the person who went looking for them. Which is which? Who could say. We’ll never know.

I think Stretchface’s sprites really do imply that they’re doing their best to CONSTRAIN the halves of their head, which is vastly more horrifying than ripping them apart of its own volition. Contents under pressure.

But don’t worry guys, it’s fine, they found some duct tape!

I like the idea that Seed Freak is three individuals fused together as opposed to one guy with multiple faces!

My headcanon for apartment 16 is that the scene we see is the site of a gardener’s club that meets up every couple of weeks. Unfortunately, the date of their get-together fell right on the same day the Visitor dropped by.

Seed Freak’s components weren’t even proper members, just some brothers who lived on F1 and always offered help with moving the larger plants. They were moving an awfully large cactus inside from one of the gardener’s cars and were surprised to find they couldn’t put it down.

A more distinct view of all their faces! I realize they’re only subtly different in-game, but I liked the idea of playing up their differences. It was a fun exercise to interpret them!

And lastly, I challenged myself to try to drew Seed Freak as simple/cutesy as possible while still retaining the most relevant features!

My take on their outlined design! Overall it was tricky to work up a screen/video technology based design that didn’t steal very much from Panopticon, but it was a very fun challenge!

The specifications didn’t say NOT to add DVD players for hands with tongues for fingers, so of course I added DVD players for hands with tongues for fingers.

Had the idea that they have an anomalocaris’ approximate body shape, but not the same locations for bodily functions. Hence the eyestalks that end in speakers!
