I heard a loud bang and the pod was shaking, then the lights turned off. There are viewing bays to get glimpses of what’s happening around the pod.
Within around 60 seconds of escaping in the pod, you will hit an asteroid field and hear rocks pinging off the outside of the pod. Once in the pod you are jettisoned off, drifting through space without any FTL capabilities, and must survive against whatever is thrown at you.īefore you get to this point there, there are four tutorial tasks that I highly recommend you complete, and I found I had to go back to the last two after a few failed attempts I had already forgotten some key elements in my panic to work out what was wrong. I mentioned closing the door because just getting in the pod isn’t enough, as I found out the hard way. Grabbing whatever you can get your hands on within 60 seconds, you must get into your pod and close the door to escape the exploding ship.
From hull breaches, loss of oxygen or cabin pressure, to equipment malfunctions, you need to survive as long as you can where death is a learning experience.Īs a member of your colony’s space program, you leave Mars aboard a large transport ship, only for its reactor to go critical in the middle of your journey to new horizons. It’s a game that tests your memory, patience and nerve as you need to survive as long as possible in an escape pod that will face random problems you must solve.
