Since I made the first post here, I've sunk... 88 hours into the game, according to Steam. And I've enjoyed every minute of it.

Apropos of nothing, here is a list of observations I've made:

* Lizard doggos are cute! Also lizard doggos are dumb and like to fetch things for you. Lizard doggos are also immune to radiation. (You are not.)

* My god this game is pretty. So, so pretty.

* Alpha pigs suuuuck. But they can be convinced to yeet themselves off a cliff relatively easily. Fun!

* Space elevator. L-l-lewd!

* You need more room than you think you do. No, more than that.

* Multiplayer is buggy but fun as balls. My housemate has a knack for creating vomit comet hyperloop rides. I'm almost scared to think of what he's gonna do when we unlock the train.

* Persuant to the above: hyperloops require a catcher's mitt. Walls suffice. Jello is more entertaining.

* The difference between a safe water landing and driving your splintered shinbones up through your braincase is approximately half an inch.

* My god. THAT'S SO PRETTY. (Each of us -- three of us regularly play in this map -- has spouted that on multiple occassions.)

* There are spiders, and then there are OH GOD WHAT THE HELL IS THAT.

* I seem to have discovered a sort of obsession I wasn't aware I had and I swear, I SWEAR, if I find one more conveyor belt just vanishing into a hillside I'm going to use my trusty rebar gun on someone.

* Overclocking is a trap, don't fall into it. Okay, mostly it's a trap. Sometimes it's useful. Look, just do the math first!

* Oh hey, there's a calculator built into this thing! Neat!

* There's a GODDAMN FLASHLIGHT?!

* Nothing sounds so satisfying as the whump and whine of a coal generator firing up.

* Spitters happen. A lot.

* You dork. Crafting benches are cheap. JUST BUILD ONE WHERE YOU'RE STANDING, IDIOT. You don't have to run all the way back to base again. Remember to hoover it up when you're done.

* Friendly fire isn't.
