Arguably, this is a problem caused by the ecosystem not being dynamic _enough_ - i.e. the wasps (/wasp nests) aren't capable of dynamically recovering from this sort of situation.
We do have healing behaviour on various systems, do the system does allow for it. And in fact we make use of various key entities being resilient in that way. However through Playtesting we found it could be pretty frustrating for things like nests to recover health. They do recover from other types of states though- infection, frozen, scented. (Yes, this is a thing) I can’t wait to show these things in the coming videos.
Thanks for watching people! If you find this interesting there is also a long form blog post that offers a few additional angles. Links below! We also release a non-spammy newsletter with unique content, updates on this and other things, freebies etc... and offer similar things via our Discord. Come check it out and give us feedback?

Very interesting, looks like a cool game.
Thanks Darrin! I'll be posting loads more content like this, so people can say how crazy the game can get. :-)
