Stranded Spaceship

Instructions

Stranded Spaceship is a complex game, I highly recommend you reading the instructions. This game can be rather difficult at times, but it is possible. Instructions VVVVV ==Objective== To return to Earth without dying. ===Base UI=== These are the basic buttons and panels that will be on screen at all times. --Hunger In the top left, you have your hunger. Your hunger will tick down constantly through your playthrough. If your hunger is too low, it will decrease your health --Health In the top right, you have your health. If your health ever reaches 0, you lose. Your health will increase when you are in no state of danger. If you are in a state of danger, your health will decrease. The heart will also display some effects that decrease your health. If the heart is blue you are too cold. If the heart is orange you are overheated. If the heart is broken you are injured. If the heart has a bandage, you are in a cast. If the heart is red and has no overlays, you are healthy --Oxygen At the bottom, there is a panel that displays oxygen. Think of this as a timer. The number represents your oxygen level, and the dots represent how close you are to going down a level. This panel can also be a helpful tool to warn you if power is low. If there is low power, the meter will turn off to conserve power. --Control buttons These are the buttons that can change what is displayed on the scene. S - Science W - Window E - Energy T - Tech C - Crafting H - Health -- I will now go over the functions of each of these screens ==Window== This is the starter window. The only thing it displays is your distance travelled towards the earth. This number is at the top of the window and you win once it reaches 100. ==Storage== Storage displays 2 things, food and materials. It will display the third thing once you unlock the asteroid mining upgrade. --Food-- Food is the things you consume to increase your hunger. You click on the food to eat it. It will increase your hunger by the amount clarified by the yellow circle. You can navigate the food menu by using the arrows. --Materials-- These are the resources you use for crafting. See Crafting for more information. --Asteroid mining-- Once you upgrade the asteroid mining upgrade, you can click the activate button to launch a mining mission. After a period of time, searching will end and you will gain some resource. ==Energy== The Energy screen displays 3 things, power, power settings, and crank. --Power-- The number at the top of the screen is the remaining energy. Power determines what does and does not work --Crank Menu-- Below the power number, there is a button to open up the crank menu. A menu will pop up in the middle of the screen, and a crank will be on it. Using the crank, you can power the ship. You must grab the handle and do a whole turn to increase the power. You do this by clicking and dragging. Be warned, turning the crank for too long at once may cause you to be injured. See injury healing --Power settings-- Here you can see what to turn on and off. You can click a name highlighted in green to turn it off and a name highlighted in yellow to turn it on. If the name is in red, the power is too low and it has been turned off. ==Tech== The tech screen displays one thing, the tech currently able to be researched. Once you click a tech, you will begin to research it. A timer will tick up to 100, and once it reaches that you can research new tech. ==Crafting== The crafting screen displays 2 things. Your materials and items that you may be able to craft. --Materials-- These are the resources vital to crafting. They can be increased by mining asteroids. See Asteroid mining. --Craft Panel-- The middle panel displays items that may be able to be crafted. Hovering over them you can see their cost and their description appear. ==Health== The health panel displays two things, injury healing and temperature. --Injury Healing-- If you are injured there are two options, cast and surgery. If you click the cast button, it will put you in healing mode and cost one plastic. If you click the surgery button, it will instantly heal you, at the risk of immediately ending the game. The risk increases the more times you have surgery. --Temperature-- The temperature is a variable that will influence your health. If it drops too far you will freeze. If it increases too much, you will overheat. The temperature will naturally fluctuate around a middle point. Sometimes the temperature will change too much, but you can bring that back into balance with the arrows. If not enough power is supplied the temperature will decrease. Good luck!!
