Repeated intro
Hello survivors!
Dead in Antares releases in... 3 WEEKS! January felt like it has lasted for 6 months, and at the same time, it went by SO QUICKLY.
So yeah, it's the finish line for us. A ton of last details to polish, final testings... We're on time, but we're not wasting a single minute before the release :)
And today, we want to talk about even more work stations in the camp! Choosing who will work in which stations, in which order, will be crucial in your survival, so you don't, you know, die of starvation or any other horrible cause you might meet in the game.
Recreation Area
Chilling out with companions in misfortune might be just what everyone needs at some point.
Your characters will be under a LOT of stress in the game, as they're thrown in an unknown part of the universe, fighting creatures, aliens, as the fate of humankind rests on their shoulder, with 0 certainty they will ever go home one day...
So, the recreation area is the best way to decrease their stress! That station will always require 2 workers! And the more communication your characters have, the more stress they will remove!
Pro Cooker
A balanced diet is highly recommended for optimizing survival chances in hostile environments
That camp station is very practical, as it doesn't require any worker in it!
All you'll need is some energy and the required ingredients! And if you manage to upgrade it enough, you might be able to make even more complex meals! You'll be that close to having the best foodtruck on Antares Prime (okay, it'd be the only one, and it's not even a truck, but you get the idea)
Gathering Camp
Xenofruits may not be very nutritious, but those that aren't lethal pack plenty of vitamins.
Frutis will have several uses in the game, but they're a very easy to get resource, especially in the early game!
Hunting Camp
All the gear needed to hunt, or to be hunted, depending on the hunter's luck
The Hunting Camp is the best way to gather some meat, which is another resource essential to manage your hunger! Don't forget a lure!
Fishing Camp
What contributes a fish on this planet is open to debate, but if it can be eaten, it probably counts
Similar to the hunting camp, you'll only need a bait to get plenty of fish from the "lake". (for our sanity, we'll say those are totally normal fish from a totally normal lake).
Keep in mind that similar to Dead in Vinland, material and food stations will need some time to be replenished, so don't spend all your time hunting and fishing!
Pen
The slobbery secretions are their way of showing affection in return of the care they receive
I'm sure some of you remember the VERY CUTE sheep from Dead in Vinland. They're unfotunately not back in Dead in Antares (yes, sad).
However, Noemi has found some adorable (her words) slugs that are incredibly friendly. And cute, we must admit.
So, the pen will give you some very precious resources:
Eggs
Raw Meat
Mucus (that is used to feem them!)
Their sheep will have an influence on the resources they produce, so you might want to keep slugs from all ages!
And yes, making raw meat out of them will make you sad, but it's up to you.
Garden
To grow your own food is a supreme luxury on Earth. Here, it's simply a
