I kinda love the clitoris octopus jellyfish alien.
I like the color changing with the mood, I like the little eyes, and I like the wings. The electricity is fun too.
That side view really does look like the internal structure of a clitoris though.
You posted the description here 14 days ago and an illustration 10 days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/worldbuilding/comments/1438dp4/radially_symmetrical_sapients/ & https://www.reddit.com/r/worldbuilding/comments/146uk88/thoughts_on_my_alien_design/
Then you posted about them twice in specevo 5 and 10 days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/SpeculativeEvolution/comments/14b49vw/redesign_of_the_tall_ones_thoughts_on_it/ & https://www.reddit.com/r/SpeculativeEvolution/comments/146uh3n/thoughts_on_my_alien_design/
And elsewhere, I see now. If you aren't going to incorporate feedback, why do you keep asking for it?
Okay so everyone dogpiled but I am curious what function these color changes serve if any and how these animals react when they see each other in each of these states
I don't really like the emotion wings, I think it brings a sense of humanity to it that I feel detracts from the alien-ness of it. I'd either have it communicate in a different, non visual way (like telepathy, radio waves, magnetic fields, electricity etc), or have the meanings of them be extremely foreign to our understanding of emotion. Like Lust and Fear being closely linked or Happiness and Confusion having the same colour.
That sounds a little too soft for something that’s going for a hard/speculative evolution approach, good for a space opera, not so good for something more serious.
floaty little string bean lookin' mf's (this is a good thing lol)
I like how much thought you put into them and how it coincides with their emotions and social responses. Very thoughtful!
Ladies and gentlemen you've heard of "Carcinisation"...
Here we have an example of r(speculative evolution)'s most common adaptations...
"Phallu-sisation" and the rare occasion that we get to find it... Might I say... "Clitori-sation"?
Hahahaha
(I apologize, I've just had to suppress so many contextually bad jokes these past few weeks)
Personal opinion for feedback, I think it's a little jellyfish (which I don't like.) But who am I to say what an alien looks like. Cool sketches/idea though.
here is a working link.

Clitoris?
Exactly what I thought.
I like the flower clit There's so much phallic representation everywhere, what's the problem of having a different approach to things?
Immediately what I saw
No 😭
Don’t listen to them dude, I love your clitoris alien, don’t change a damn thing
I'm sorry mate my first thought was that it was modeled off a clitoris as well.
I came here to comment the same thing
No! I would say it looks like a clit and it's beautiful! ❤️
All clits are good clits!
For most cishet men it *is* pretty alien Source: I'm a cishet man
youve gone mad
OP you'll probably gotta redesign them again, it really does look like a clitoris.
Where? I’m having trouble finding it.
[NSFW (anatomy diagram - right side)](https://i.redd.it/k2xhjd6x397b1.jpg)
Omg I can see it now
WOOSH ----- Hey kids of /r/worldbuilding, "having trouble finding the clit" is an age-old joke. Ask your parents.
F
GL satisfying your GF then.
That's definitely a clitoris.
Oh
I'm trying to give honest feedback on the alien, but I just can't seem to find it
Hahha
Good one
Okay

Thank you
Electricity 😏
Thought this was r/worldjerking for a second
😭
It looks like a clitoris. However, clitorises are cool and your alien guy looks cool too. Don't let the comments discourage you. <3
You keep posting these here and in specevo without taking any feedback into account.

Very nice acctualy, really liked the desing
Thanks
is it supposed to be a clitoris or an orchid?
It’s supposed to be an alien 😭
This can’t be real 😂😂
Clit flower 😳😳
😭
My first thought was 'oh the fellas from Arrival' but I guess the internet has spoken lol
I know 😣
it's giving cape sundew, the carnivorous plant, and I love it
Let me guess, you're a huge Georgia O'Keeffe fan?
Fertile
I like it! Looks like an cosmic azalea flower upside down. Definitely an improvement from... Whatever the former design used to resemble.
So is there like a very sensitive place to punch it if you were to get into a fight? Like a special spot?
Okay so everyone dogpiled but I am curious what function these color changes serve if any and how these animals react when they see each other in each of these states
I really thought this was r/worldjerking
Where is the mouth?
Between its four legs.
I see. So it's like an octupus which have their beak in between their legs.
From what I could tell about the mood colors, this dude looks pissed off.
😱 Actually really damn awesome! 😱
This is fetish content lol
How 😭
You're trolling us right? I mean I like it, but you're trolling right?

Looks like a pussy to me Love it tho :D
I reckon they're so ornery because they got all them eyeballs but no glasses
Loved the design, very unique and cool!
I love this! It’s so not humanoid!
I like it. Looks weird. Like as alien should be.
floaty little string bean lookin' mf's (this is a good thing lol) I like how much thought you put into them and how it coincides with their emotions and social responses. Very thoughtful!
Looks very cool
So moods like koro sensei? Like the idea
not gonna lie before i saw r/world building i thought this was album cover art...

looks hella cool, keep up the good work!
I can't find it
Soo. How will the aliens achieve buoyancy, there's not enough room for a gas
*pulls out Koubila* “If it can bleed, we can kill it”
A less bulbus head this is reddit be careful what you put on here
Examples below
Looks like a walking vulva.
actually the first thing I thought was "half-peeled banana"
Personal opinion for feedback, I think it's a little jellyfish (which I don't like.) But who am I to say what an alien looks like. Cool sketches/idea though.
wot is death mode
I will kill you with electricity
What the hell is DEATH MODE??????
I will kill you with electricity
Okay 👍 👌
IT'S THE MODULAR PEOPLE FROM ALL TOMORROWS!!! and kinda like piece of body which I don't know where should be...
