The game was inspired by Fortnite Battle Royale, and was an attempt to create an "awesome competitive game" within the Roblox platforms limitations. In August 2022, the game was shut down following a mass wave of exploiters rendering the game unable to be maintained by the developers, with them stating that what they wanted to do was not ...
SETA Corporation [a] was a Japanese computer gaming company, founded on October 1, 1985, and dissolved on February 9, 2009. [1] SETA was headquartered in Kōtō, Tokyo, [2] with a branch in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Scopulae, or scopula pads, are dense tufts of hair at the end of a spiders's legs.They are found mostly on hunting spiders, for example Salticidae and Sparassidae.Scopulae consist of microscopic hairs, known as setae, which are each covered in even smaller hairs called setules or "end feet", resulting in a large contact area.
The micrometer-scale setae branch into nanometer-scale projections called spatulae. [6] A Tokay gecko's two front feet can sustain 20.1 N of force parallel to the surface using approximately 14,400 setae per mm 2. This equates to ~ 6.2 pN per seta, but does not sufficiently account for the overall stickiness behavior shown by the foot pads. [7]
Drawing of the statocyst system Statocysts (ss) and statolith (sl) inside the head of sea snail Gigantopelta chessoia. The statocyst is a balance sensory receptor present in some aquatic invertebrates, including bivalves, [1] cnidarians, [2] ctenophorans, [3] echinoderms, [4] cephalopods, [5] [6] crustaceans, [7] and gastropods, [8] A similar structure is also found in Xenoturbella.

Urticating hairs do not appear at birth but form with each consecutive molt, widening from molt to molt and outwardly presenting themselves around areas of more dark bristles on the upper back part of the abdomen of juveniles. In elder ages their coloration shifts to match the main tone of abdomen.
In most species of bees, the scopa is simply a dense mass of elongated, often branched, hairs (or setae) on the hind leg. When present on the hind legs, the modified hairs are, at a minimum, on the tibia, but some bees also have modified hairs on the femur and/or trochanter.
The two front feet of a tokay gecko can withstand 20.1 N of force parallel to the surface with 227 mm 2 of pad area, [4] a force as much as 40 times the gecko's weight. . Scientists have been investigating the secret of this extraordinary adhesion ever since the 19th century, and at least seven possible mechanisms for gecko adhesion have been discussed over the past 17
