We've been making models of really specific underwater plant life for our game, based on local UK species. These have wonderful names, such as Stalked Leaf Bearer, Lobster Horn, Fan Coral, Dead man's fingers, Winged Kelp and Eel Grass. #ShowMeSunday #ScreenshotSaturday #GameArt #CozyGames #IndieDev
