starwall but really sad and deflated

Jorts Horse: the game

building that thermal shield was the best idea I've had in a long time. that volcano would have cooked me if I didn't lock it into a corner.

can we talk about the fact that baby pips are called Pipsqueaks

also, I managed to make my main ladderway into a nature reserve, guaranteeing a +6 morale every morning when my dupes walk through it. I friggin love pips.

my real bottleneck right now is sand. I don't ever have enough sand to supply all the filtration required to get rid of the polluted water and oxygen. The polluted water thing is really a detriment too, because I'm kind of reliant on a polluted water geyser for supplying my electrolyzer, so without the ability to turn it into fresh water the oxygen supply will come to a grinding halt.

I've been crushing rocks to get sand for the time being. It's not great.

that little bubble of gas next to that ruin is a chamber of compressed steam at 85.5 kg per tile and 302 degrees Celsius. there's a bunch of salt on the floor as well, implying that it used to be a pool of saltwater.

bad news is that there is a volcano somewhere nearby and it's causing total havoc in the upper left side of the base from where I'm at. I'm a little miffed that I didn't find it earlier, this whole saltwater biome got fried. somehow that little crab is still alive though.

Good news everyone! It's been a while since my last update, but in that time I've uncovered a cool steam vent, and more importantly, a polluted water geyser! it's still a MESS and plenty of the dupes keep coming down with slimelung, but for now, we have food and oxygen. Next thing we really need (besides sanitation) is a reliable source of power and loads of it. After that, steel and the midgame.

kinda fucked up how lettuce exists

Starwall 2: This Time With More Cheese

Looks like I'll be here for a while then. What's up jorts crew?

I have 385 hours in this game and I've learned NOTHING

jesus this game is hard. fuck how did I even manage to survive last time. I got so lucky.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA we've run out of water. the oxyferns are upset. this might be the end.
