So as I begin to work on my submission, I can't help but notice how familiar the player avatars look.

Given Aardvark Swift's connections with the industry, I have a feeling that this isn't a co-incidence...

When I first opened up the base project & started shunting the players around, Gang Beasts did come to mind as a possible direction someone could take it in. Beyond that, I think any other similarities are coincidental :)
