Follow reddit's self-promotion guidelines ( additional note). You’ll embark on a quest to survive, discover, explore and fight your way across an infinite universe! Latest stable update: August 7th, 2019 Take on the role of a character who’s just fled their home planet, only to crash-land on another. Hence why I got so annoyed when I discovered the erchius mine mission was mandatory before I would be allowed to explore/collect - they forced gamers like me to engage in the type of gameplay we don't like, before we were permitted to engage in the type of gameplay we *do* like (and which Starbound is full of, it's just gated behind that stupid quest).Starbound is a 2D extraterrestrial sandbox adventure game developed by Chucklefish, a London-based independent game studio! Not everyone is motivated by combat, efficiency, and things like that. So the more collections are possible, the more I want to play. Once I run out of things to collect/discover, I tend to lose interest in a game. Some are motivated by discovering and collecting new things - I am one of those (a combination of the achiever/explorer types). Remember, there are several types of gamers. I succeeded in getting my first fossil (an unidentified torso).Ĭollecting them is enough for me. It looks like somehow I was truly not standing close enough - placing my character directly on top of the fossil then using the brush caused the mini-game to open at last. In any case, I managed to get it working. The tools are part of the mini-game, and which tools are available to you depends on the type of brush you have.
Using the brush on a fossil is supposed to trigger a mini-game, according to the official wiki. The only thing you can make is the brushes.
