> "My ship’s reactor went critical and I died in the resulting explosion." Ugh, I get that nightmare, too. Where you die, I mean. You’re not exactly a rocket scientist, you know? Me, I could fix a reactor gone critical in my sleep. If your ship reactor’s cooked, best thing you can do is to put as much distance as you can between you and the ship.

>"I ran out of oxygen and suffocated." Haha, that’s a classic! Don’t worry about it too much — I don’t know an Outer Wilds Ventures member who hasn’t had that dream. But listen, as long as you keep an eye on your suit’s oxygen levels and remember to refill it inside your ship or wherever you find trees, you’ll be fine. Gossan’s still sore that the jetpack can run on oxygen once it’s out of fuel, but hey, it hasn’t killed anyone yet.

>"I got crushed to death on the Hourglass Twins." Yeesh, that’s a gnarly dream to have right before a first launch. You’ll want to stay out of the Hourglass Twins’ sand stream, for sure. And watch out for rising sand levels whenever you’re inside a cave. Still, Chert hasn’t managed to get buried alive out there. And they’re tiny.

say hi to a hearthian solar system au! the idea popped in my head back in august when i made the drawings for this post and thought 'hey, what if instead of cosplay this was their actual home' and everything derailed from there.

each planet has its specificities and each population has its quirks and its own assets it either shares or trades with the rest of the solar system.
