I finally got around to changing the evolution graph to move small/medium strafers/stompers further back so you have a chance to get started and get rid of any problematic large egg rafts before they start spawning anything game-ending. I haven't been able to test it, but it's much better before, and I hope I didn't overcorrect.
the evolution graph is nice but the biggest problem is the small enemies have 100 hp which is a lot at the very start so could you change the health of small wrigglers to like 20 health?
I didn't have any trouble with small wrigglers, it doesn't seem any harder than Nauvis biters at the start. You can't just kamikaze the first raft you see, but if you get yourself a machine gun and set up a couple of turrets for backup, you can easily clear a couple of early nests. You only need two eggs to start breeding them and create a bunch of biochambers. By the time your pollution starts spreading and you need more, your military power should be much higher.
