EXPLORATION UNENDING...

You’ve fled your home, only to find yourself lost in space with a damaged ship. Your only option is to beam down to the planet below and gather the resources you need to repair your ship and set off to explore the vast, infinite universe…



Starbound is like Terraria, or 2D Minecraft... what's the difference? Well, Starbound is set in SPACE!
Starbound is brought to us by the same company that published Stardew Valley, Time Spinner and Eastward.

I played it years and years ago, but after the 1.0 came out so much changed and I sulked about it lol. Been considering picking it up again now though..

FrackinUniverse takes a while to get used to but it expands it at least 100 hours. I have 335 hours on steam.

I played it long ago during beta and then again when it released. It was weird, I felt like I was cheating all the way through. I didn't craft any weapons, got some garbage gun from a random drop and it killed everyone in one shot. Then got an OP melee weapon for a quest and killed bosses in 2-3 hits. I don't know what I did, but I was always too overpowered, nothing could kill me and I lost interest. The building was also a bit awkward. Maybe things have been fixed now, but I haven't been interested enough to check.

I wasn't really, you have to go to the core of the planet, and I was insanely close (was at lava level) but managed to slip off. sigh.
I'm just going to recreate the character on easy mode, I CBA with hard games

I think, if I read right, easy setting is kinda similar to minecraft and means you don't have to eat and don't drop stuff after death, so I think it'll be more fun for me XD

So in hard mode you die you lose everything you've worked for

Casual; when you die don’t lose any items, lose 10% money, can return to the ship from anywhere including underground
Survival; when you die lose items, 30% money, you can only return to the ship from above ground
Hardcore: if you die your character is DEAD for good!

I had fun today, even though I played in easy mode and with some cheats. But after 200+ hours I think I’m allowed to use cheats lol
