I Was a Teenage Exocolonist is a Solar Punk Life Simulation Game developed by Northway Games and published by Finji. It was released on the 25th of August in 2022 on Steam, the PS4, the PS5, and the Nintendo Switch.You start the game as a ten-year-old child, one of several born en route to Vertumna IV, a distant alien planet. As your spaceship home passes through a wormhole, an accident sends you into a coma- and awakens a strange ability to see potential futures. Your dreams are confusing, filled with skies and plants you've never seen. The worst are the nightmares, nightmares of terrible xenofauna attacking everyone you love.You wake up on Vertumna, surrounded by humanity's first colony. What will you do with your life on this alien world? Will you fight the monsters of your visions, or find a way to live in peace with them? Will you accept your powers? And what of your fellow colonists, the future of Vertumna?The choice is up to you.The game has Sol spending 10 years on Vertumna exploring the planet, working in various jobs to build their stats and earn Kudos, and maintaining their friendships/relationships with their fellow colonists. Its narrative plays out like a Visual Novel, with certain choices that require a high enough stat or winning in the Deckbuilding minigame, where Sol has to arrange their memories, which are represented by cards, by color and/or number to reach the target score. | |

Aliens Speaking English: Well, Esperanto to be exact. Possibly justified, as the aliens are actually sentient AI, so learning any number of languages should be trivial to them. | |

Bizarre Alien Biology | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_1161fb48 | comment |
Bizarre Alien Biology: Much of the life on Vertumna is hard to classify between plant, animal or mineral. It includes things like animals that photosynthesize, lifeforms that appear to be plants until they start to walk around and small metallic orbs that feature antennae and feed on electricity. | |

Anyone Can Die: The Strato colony faces dangers on Vertumna within the first few months of landing on it, and kids and adults alike, including your parents and close friends, as stated in the Content Warnings, aren't safe from its perils. However, your ability to recall your past lives allows you to save them in future playthroughs. | |

Non-Heteronormative Society | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_12beeeb2 | comment |
Non-Heteronormative Society: While the situation on Earth is unclear beyond bigotry being mentioned among its rampant problems, sexual and gender diversity exists in the colony without being treated as anything remarkable: When it comes to Sol, pronouns, gender presentation and biological sex are completely separate choices, with non-binary options for all three (there is a No Biological Sex option). All their peers are available for romance regardless of the choices made. Tang first appears at age 9, having already undergone her physical transition via gene therapy. There is also a known non-binary adult in the colony, Seeq. Marz is raised by a pair of gay fathers, while Cal has four parents due to his mother being part of a polyamorous relationship. According to Geranium's story about how he met Flulu, the ship deliberately left Earth with a diversity of marital arrangements onboard, including couples unable to produce children and smaller polyamorous groups. Nomi-Nomi grew up as the only non-binary person on the Heliopause, but they mention that people just got used to it over the years if asked about their gender during the first proper conversation with them. The issues they mention running into while growing up all seem to have been caused by having a personality at odds with that of the rest of the ship rather than their gender. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The Shimmer is a respiratory disease to which some individuals are more vulnerable than others, being eventually fatal in one case if it isn't cured in time. Before the cure is found, the best protection against it is a respirator that many people just plain don't use because of reduced comfort. Those aspects of it make it evocative of COVID-19. One of the essential materials of holopalms can't be nanoprinted and only so many spares were brought on the ship. Because of this, the colonists will need to start mining to keep holopalms in their lives, even if they are against mining on paper. Holopalms are the setting's equivalent of smartphones and other personal electronic devices that are frequently used by otherwise very environmental-minded people out of necessity despite being very environmentally damaging by several aspects. | |

Purely Aesthetic Gender: Sol's gender, pronouns, and presentation can not only be chosen, but changed instantaneously whenever the player wants. This is somewhat justified, as the setting has very advanced gender-changing procedures and progressive norms. | |

Binomium ridiculus | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_16fef97b | comment |
Binomium ridiculus: You can help Tang with cataloguing the Vertumnan flora by making up scientific names for them such as Wonkius shrubbius and Purpleus grassium. One possible conversation with Tang has her offer to name a species she has recently discovered after Sol. If the player has Sol suggest that Tang name the species after herself, Tang says she can't do that... because she already did it for six other species. If Sol becomes a botanist, which results in them discovering thousands of new species over their lifetime, they will name them all after their friends if loyal and deliberately give them silly names if rebellious. | |

No Biochemical Barriers | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_17058a90 | comment |
No Biochemical Barriers: One possible blurb of text from working in the xenobotany lab mentions that the adults born on Earth anticipated the possibility of life on Vertumna being more exotic to them than it turned out to be. In practice: The trope is played straight with Vertumna's atmosphere, which is perfectly breathable for humans. On the disease side, the Shimmer affects humans despite having evolved to affect the local wildlife. Things are a little more realistic when it comes to using the local wildlife as a food source, as Congruence needs to run tests to account for both short-term and long-term dangers. The colony also runs into its first Alien Catnip species a few years in. | |

Big First Choice | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_1a888076 | comment |
Big First Choice: The player is faced with one after unlocking the possibility to recalibrate the Stratospheric's shields at the beginning of the playthrough. To have the option at all, specific choices must be made for two out of the four sources of starting stats, forcing you to choose Reasoning and Engineering over alternatives. There are also three different shield settings to choose from: one leaves things as they are, one prevents the famine in the fifth year and one sacrifices the Stratospheric to end the time loop via destroying the wormhole, which leads to a glimpse of what would have happened if Sol had been born on Earth. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: There are 29 possible endings, all of which can be collected in the gallery. Most of them depend on the job you get at the end of the game, but there are special endings depending on the choices you make in the main story. The "Standard" Ending: This is the ending that allows for all jobs and gives a "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue for every single peer with whom Sol has become close enough friends or romantic partners. Vertumnan xenofauna will always attack your colony every Glow Season, but despite the uncertainty of humanity's survival, you and your friends continue to fight for the colony in the years to come. The "Ran Away" Ending: Sol and Dys believe that the colony is seriously harming the planet and they can't do anything about it, so Sol helps him set off the bomb near its walls and then runs away with him, never to return. Dys and Sol become Gardeners and Sol eventually forgets that they were ever human. The "Joined The Gardeners" Ending: Exactly What It Says on the Tin. Sol reunites with Dys after his departure from the colony and assists with the last steps necessary to get him assimilated into the Gardener Array. The offer to join gets extended to Sol, who accepts. After getting sidetracked by a reintroduction project for a few decades, Sol checks on the colony to find it changed into a sparsely populated People Zoo due to the Gardeners having the knowledge necessary to keep humans from fighting back. The "Tangent's Cure" Ending: A bioweapon meant to kill only the Vertumnan wildlife is released on the tenth year's Late Wet. Cal gets killed in response to his violent reaction during the announcement. Instance, who was the one initially threatened into making it, takes her own life a few months into the ten years for which the colonists have to stay inside the Helio while the bioweapon does its thing. When the colonists emerge, Vertumna has been terraformed. The "Transcended Time" Ending: The ending in which the cause of Sol's Past-Life Memories is triggered by their consciousness becoming the version of themself that inhabits the wormhole and is connected to all their other possible selves, leaving their still-teenage physical body in a lifelong coma from the perspective of the other colonists. The "Strato Destroyed" Ending: The result of Press Start to Game Over. Sol pulls down the Stratospheric's shields while it's going through the wormhole, dooming themself and everyone onboard. The wormhole is also destroyed in the process. Upon dying, Sol doesn't meet their ancient self. The "Life On Earth" Ending: A glimpse of a timeline in which Sol is born on Earth due to the wormhole not existing and dies young defending the Vertumna compound against desperate refugees. The "Disabled the Array" Ending: Sol injects the payload into the Array, disabling its control over the Gardeners and its eco-defense system designed to eradicate humans. The yearly Glow attacks cease, the Shimmer pollen clouds are much reduced, and the crops at Geoponics thrive heartily. However, Sym's abilities as an AI construct are removed, so he can no longer shapeshift or connect his consciousness with the other Gardeners. His scars also no longer heal, and he eventually dies of old age after losing his immortality. Sol and Vace are then hailed as heroes, and Vace humbles himself after his near-death experience during the mission made him realize how difficult being a true hero is, and becomes good friends with Sol. The "Peace on Vertumna" Ending: While this doesn't have a unique image like the other special endings, it still counts towards the ending achievements and enhances the "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue in the best possible way. Sol successfully makes peace with the Gardeners by agreeing to their contract that the alien race will take care of the humans and provide them with their needs, on the condition that the humans limit their population and consumption of Vertumna's resources. The two races make a few compromises so that they can live together in harmony, and while a few dissenters leave the colony to break free of Gardener influence (and are "pruned" as punishment), the two races thrive together, and eventually, a second coastal colony is founded as a reward for the humans' efforts in preserving Vertumna. | |

The Caper: In the backstory. The Vertumna Group purchased, borrowed, salvaged, or outright stole a huge trove of highly advanced technology, including gene editors and a strong AI, as well as a starship, and fled the Sol system without official permission. Eudicot, Flulu and Instance were all directly, personally involved and are wanted by Earth's government. | |

Human Resources: The colony routinely recycles dead bodies into soil. Dys, who grows to care significantly more about the local wildlife than the colony and is Not Afraid to Die, prefers the idea of dying far away from the colony and never getting found to having his remains getting used to grow food for the colony. | |

Poor Communication Kills: Dys and Tangent's sibling relationship completely disintegrates due to this. She thinks he doesn't accept her gender transition, he thinks she hates and patronizes him for not being intelligent. In reality, Dys has no problem with Tangent being transgender and Tangent is genuinely concerned for her brother's safety and well-being, but their mutual inability to express their feelings all but completely severs the twins' bond. | |

Childhood Friend Romance: You can romance one of your childhood friends as you grow up together.

Alternative Calendar | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_1d47dc06 | comment |
Alternative Calendar: A year on Vertumna is a little longer than a year on Earth. It's divided into 13 months across five seasons: 3 months each of Quiet, Pollen, Dust, and Wet, and 1 month of Glow. | |

Fantastic Ableism | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_1e312453 | comment |
Fantastic Ableism: "Genetic purity" (i.e, not having a mutation) is so far out of fashion that people pity children born with it and expect them to fail every single thing they do. Having this background gives Sol extra money at the start of the game and each time they work because bigots feel the need to reward them for anything they do right. | |

Notice This | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_20e2a53b | comment |
Notice This: Collectible items glow the same way as random event spots outside the colony, but your Perception skill must be at least 33 in order to unlock this perk. Before this, even the collectible getting a white outline requires being right next to it, just like overworld sprites and the entrances of buildings. However, a first-time player can easily mistake a collectible for a background element and thus not go out of their way to approach it. | |

Egg Sitting | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_2110d8ac | comment |
Upon finding out that children in older times had to do Egg Sitting as a deterrent to reproducing too early, Sol doesn't understand the deterrent aspect due to taking for granted the idea that a child's biological parents wouldn't be the only ones caring for them. | |

Babies Make Everything Better | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_23f1384a | comment |
Babies Make Everything Better: The consequences of a typical deconstruction are depicted several years after the fact. According to a conversation with Instance, Dys and Tang are the result of their mother believing that having children would make her feel less lonely. Their mother was dead via suicide by the time they were old enough to start going to school. In the present day, both the twins and the friend of their mother, who's keeping an eye on them, wonder if their mother ever truly cared about them. This is played straight with some romance options who won't have any children on their own, but are willing to co-parent with Sol, as the children will always bring out the best in them. Ironically, one of the romance options to whom this applies is Dys himself. Once the colony's supplies become sufficient thanks to the Heliopause's arrival, having many children with as many partners as possible is highly encouraged, not just to populate the planet, but also to increase genetic diversity. This along with the promotion of communal childrearing becomes a symbol of hope for the future of Vertumna. | |

Multiple-Choice Future | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_253daa59 | comment |
Sol tries to tell people about their visions, but (because not all of them come true) is dismissed as a liar. Eventually, Sol mostly stops talking about them, for reasons decided by the player. If the player insists on continuing to talk about them, they start being considered delusional, and they get Delusion cards, which have negative values. | |

Palette Swap | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_2557e3a9 | comment |
Palette Swap: The career endcards display the trope on two levels: Each individual endcard adapts to Sol's gender presentation, but only via changing their hairstyle. Several pairs and trios of endcards are clearly using identical or nearly identical poses for Sol, while changing some combination of Sol's clothing and what they are holding. The background is always more heavily modified by comparison. For example, both the botanist and lawyer ending show Sol sitting at a desk from the same angle with their left arm raised, but the botanist is holding a plant, while the lawyer is touching a larger holoscreen. | |

Cruel to Be Kind | |

Cruel to Be Kind: Because of the way floatcow biology works, there are two ways to help a upended one: you can milk it, if your skill in Animals is sufficient enough, or you can cut its urine sac open with a knife, letting the overload of fluid gush out. This hurts the floatcow, but an easier skill test confirms that it's the only way you have to get it moving again. | |

Status Effects | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_2639f6eb | comment |
Status Effects: Certain story choices and events negatively affect how much you gain certain skills for several months: Stressed Out: At maximum stress, you can't work or explore outside the colony, and you can only spend the month off relaxing to fully de-stress. Feud: Getting into a major fight with someone reduces all social skill gains by 1 for three months. Insomnia: You lose sleep after having a particularly bad dream on your 19th birthday, reducing all mental skill gains by 1 for three months. Injured: Getting hurt in battle reduces all physical skill gains by 1 for six months and prevents you from exploring, but your injuries can be healed by relaxing. Starving: When the famine hits the colony, you end up hungry, reducing all physical skill gains by 1 until the colony gets enough food. In Mourning: The death of a loved one such as Tammy and your parents reduces all skill gains by 1 for three months. You also can't give gifts to your friends, go exploring, or activate events while working. Hormones: Once you hit puberty, your raging hormones triple all Rebellion gains for nine months. Grounded: If you get caught disobeying the grownups, you're banned from exploring and all Loyalty gains are doubled for three months. | |

Modular Epilogue: The game typically ends on your 20th birthday, and the epilogue explains how your and your friends' lives turn out in adulthood. The job you get depends on the activity you did the most and your highest associated stat, while your friends' fates are based on your choices in certain paths and whether or not you're dating them. You then generally live to a ripe, old age, and in your Dying Dream, your ancient self offers to take you back in time to start a new life and see how different it would turn out. | |

Limited Wardrobe | |

Limited Wardrobe: Everyone only ever wears one outfit, with those of Sol and their peers only changing as they get portraits that look older. While the colony's emphasis on saving resources means that some people may genuinely have only one daytime outfit, some, such as Marz, are implied or stated to have more than that by the narrative. Marz herself has a generic line on the tail end of her early teens in which she's thinking of renewing her wardrobe because she feels like she's been wearing the same clothes for several years. | |

Psycho Pink: The game takes place on Vertumna, an alien planet where the predominant colours are pink and purple. Possibly because it's the garden planet of an alien race, who are very hostile to humanity. Native fauna includes the manticore, a predator which stands as tall as a horse and consists almost entirely of pink spikes. Plasrifle blasts barely leave a mark on it. | |

Nocturnal Emission: Sol gets this when they're 13 if the player selects the corresponding puberty option for them. They vaguely recall having an "exciting" dream the other night when they stained the bed, and if they do their laundry, their dad comes in to tell them that it's okay to "feel a little wet behind the ears". | |

Homosexual Reproduction | |

One Babysitting event has Sol and Tammy discuss who could have been the latter's surrogate mother. The people Sol can suggest are Anne (Anemone's mother), Tirah (Cal's mother), their own mother (Flulu) and "Marz's dad". Choosing the last option confirms that it's given completely seriously and implies Burnish is known to be the one who carried Marz. | |

Medicate the Medium: If Sol makes a regular habit of discussing their dreams around the colony and insisting on their predictive power, they will eventually be committed to care for a psychotic disorder by Instance.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The game usually lets Sol get away with anything that saves someone who would have died if they had done nothing. An attempt at using Instant Sedation to keep a character from going on the outing on which they can get killed almost kills them in itself. On top of this, as Sol has to visit the person's quarters to put the sleeping pills in their drink, everyone figures out that Sol is the one who did it and several authority figures now want to know why they apparently randomly poisoned someone. | |

Getting this ending will also have a positive influence on Sol and their friend's futures (for example, since Vertumna no longer needs a standing army, Anemone returns to her childhood dream of becoming a Sportsball coach) and will result in the Sol's parents dying happily, with their lifelong dreams fulfilled. | |

But Thou Must!: If Marz organizes a Toilet Paper Prank in the classroom, you can try to stop your friends from joining her instead of joining in yourself, but while you receive points for Loyalty, Marz will threaten you into joining them, anyway. In Marz's four-heart event, she notices how "hideous" you look and offers to give you a makeover. You can tell her that you're "not [her] doll", but she'll insist that she's doing you a favor, anyway, so you don't have much choice but to go along with her. It's impossible to skip any of Sol's late teens birthday parties. If Sol picks the option to not go, it only causes Marz to put a little extra effort into making them join. In the case of the seventeenth birthday party, trying to not go at all only results in Sol showing up so late they arrive just in time to witness Lum's interruption. In Nomi's holonovel, you can't refuse to stop the alien invasion because doing so leads to your early death. You can't turn down Tang's request to find her hopeye eggs at the Valley of Vertigo because she never "said" that you were her "errand-runner", angering her but giving you the Fetch Quest anyway. | |

Cast from Hit Points | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_51567188 | comment |
Cast from Hit Points: Since the Stress meter acts like an HP meter, although it increases when you get stressed, it fits this trope in spirit. The Stressful Event memory is a powerful card, which is worth 8 points, but it gives you 10 Stress. If you can't reach the goal in a card challenge, you can push through with the task in exchange for gaining Stress, which increases by 5 for every point you lack for the target. You can't do this if the cost would make you exceed the maximum (100). | |

We Used to Be Friends | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_51a3ba7 | comment |
We Used to Be Friends: The children of the Stratospheric weren't always nice to each other, but they were raised together, in an environment where no other peers existed. Yet they would develop such drastically different political views that this closeness couldn't last. Cal and Anemone, in particular, get along well as kids, but after Anemone joins the military in her teens, she and Cal separate because of their differing views, with Cal believing in pacifism and Anemone believing in fighting to protect the colony. | |

The Famine | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_5674af1a | comment |
The Famine: Because the Stratospheric lost its supplies for sustainable farming on the way to Vertumna, a famine strikes during Year 5. During this, your mother works extra hard in the Geoponics Station to provide enough food for the colony, your physical skill gains are reduced by 1, while cake cannot be sold at the Supply Depot. You can help Flulu on the farm, work at the kitchens, or forage at the Valley of Vertigo to try ending the famine early, or you can avoid it altogether by making certain choices in previous playthroughs. | |

Everybody Must Get Stoned: When clearing the pixie beans for human consumption, Congruence forgets to check for their effects on people undergoing puberty. Since the pixie beans get debuted as a food source right when Sol and their peers are in the early stages of puberty, they come out of their first time eating them in an unusually good mood. If Sol both eats the beans and discovers their drug-like effects themself during a shift in the xenobotany lab, it's a small miracle they get to the end of the experiment. | |

Call a Rabbit a "Smeerp": The game takes place in the far future where humans left Earth to colonize an alien planet, Vertumna. To distance themselves from their Earth origins, the Strato and Helio colonies give different names for Earth technology such as "hearspeaks" for earphones, "virtspace helmets" for VR helmets, and "vintage focus devices" for fidget spinners. | |

The Secret Pet Plot involving Cal starts with both he and Sol being in the barn in which he's keeping the pet when it hatches. Cal always names the pet "Socks." If it's at least Sol's second time living through the event, they can respond to finding Cal looking at an unseen item he's keeping inside a crate by asking if it's Socks. Since Socks isn't hatched quite yet at that point and it's always the first time from Cal's point of view, a bemused Cal asks why he would be keeping his socks in a barn. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: After the 9th Vertumnalia Festival, you and your friends start noticing that you haven't been seeing Dys and are worrying about him. However, you can still talk to him in the overworld and bond with him since he doesn't actually disappear until that year's Glow Season unless you can convince him not to when you spot him setting up the bomb near the colony walls. On a similar note, at least one random job event mentioning Dys visiting can still pop up after he leaves for sure, or even after he has become a Gardener. The birthdays (technically birth months) of Sol's peers are formally discovered via giving them a gift on the right month, though they can also learn Marz's birthday in one conversation with her about Valentine's Day. This needs to be done separately for a pair of characters known to be twins. You can still comfort Nomi-Nomi over not knowing what their Bio-Augmentation is or whether or not they have one by saying that you don't have one either... even if you gave yourself one later at the genetech lab. You always start with 50 Stress upon landing on Vertumna, even if you unlocked the option to recalibrate the Stratospheric's shields, wherein you don't gain Stress in that sequence of events. | |

Outgrown Such Silly Superstitions | |

Outgrown Such Silly Superstitions: Downplayed. Religion is never criticized because it's never mentioned at all- the setting is entirely secular. There's no chapels on the spaceship, for example, and funerals focus on the deceased person's importance to their planet and community rather than any kind of religious viewpoint. It's closer to Author Appeal than an Author Tract. | |

Herbivores Are Friendly: Cal believes that the plant-eating xenofauna are the "good guys", which is why he decides to keep his pet dillypillar Socks. But as Sol finds out in their expeditions, not all herbivores on Vertumna are docile, as some such as bushbubs become aggressive when provoked. | |

Hostile Terraforming | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_666648a3 | comment |
Hostile Terraforming: Governor Lum can force Instance and Tangent to release an engineered plague on Vertumna that kills everything larger than a small insect. The planet's biosphere crashes hard and the colony shelters in a bunker for years, but at the end of it all, the soil is fertilized by all the death and the Gardeners are crippled if not outright destroyed, so the colony can begin using their Earth seed stores to reclaim the wasteland in the Earth's image. | |

Toast of Tardiness | |

Toast of Tardiness: Nomi-Nomi writes a holonovel in which the plot is kickstarted while the character standing in for the reader is running to school with a piece of toast in their mouth. Presumably, they were inspired by the time they crashed into you with a toast with in their mouth in their four-heart event. | |

Eating the Eye Candy: Marz spends one shift as depot clerk ogling at other people's butts, and Sol can join her, tell her to cut it out, or even compliment her butt. If Sol joins in on the ogling, they also can't help but notice Seeq "sashaying" away, their hips "swinging like a pendulum". | |

Cynicism Catalyst: The death of Anemone's beloved brother Kom causes her to go from a plucky and cheerful girl to a bitter and angry young woman who joins the military dead-set on revenge. She also comes to scorn her once-beloved sportsball as a children's activity, devoting all her time to becoming a soldier. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Every character in the game has an astonishingly apropos name. Some of them go by nicknames that play on other aspects of their personality. Aspartame is named after an artificial sweetener that is much sweeter than normal sucrose, fitting for a kind and caring lady. Dysthymia is named after a form of chronic depression and is the most clear and open case of a depression sufferer among the cast. Dys muses on what an odd thing that is to name a child after, and consequently fears that he was a contributing factor to his mother's suicide. Anemone is named not just after a sea creature, but also a brightly-colored flower, which is sometimes called the "windflower" because its dead petals fly everywhere, appropriate for a spirited young girl who loves playing sportsball. "Basorexia" means "a compulsive desire to kiss". Rex is all about physical affection, is a flirt towards Sol, and enjoys big hugs from them. His nickname is also a Stock Animal Name for dogs and his Bio-Augmentation makes him a Little Bit Beastly dog. Mothers are traditionally considered as the "light" of the family, who enlighten their child with their knowledge of the world, hence Sol's mom is named Fluorescent. Fluorescence is also the scientific name of the "glow in the dark" property of some novelty items and she shows her best side during darker times. An antecedent is something that goes before another item in a series. Auntie Seedent's duties largely include raising the next generation of colonists. "Congruence" means "agreement or harmony; compatibility", and in mathematics, congruent lines are equal in length, fitting for an A.I. who keeps the ship running in order. Marz's dads, who are construction workers, are named Aluminum and Burnish. The former's name is a common construction metal while latter's name means "to polish metal by rubbing". Marzipan is an ingredient that can be used to make elegant-looking sweets. Marz is a homophone to "Mars", both a Roman god of war and a planet that is a popular location for fictional exocolonies. Utopia means "paradise", and her job is to scout for the best places in Vertumna to expand the colony. Tiramisus are among the desserts that are often made to be shared among several people, quite fitting for a mother in a four-person polycule. The commander of the Heliopause goes by "Lum", associated with light. His full name, Baculum, is significantly less flattering, much like the disconnect between his public persona and actual personality. Since "baculum" means "penis bone", and he turns out to be a corrupt governor underneath his charisma, his full name means that he's a dick. Symbiosis means "a mutually beneficial relationship between two different species", and his purpose is to find peace between the humans and the Gardeners by befriending Sol. Lum says in his speech for the 8th Vertumnalia Festival that Vertumna is named after Vertumnus, the Roman god of cultivation, which is why he plans to clear its land for farming. | |

| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_6cc4e01e | comment |
Schrödinger's Question: Sol's name and Bio-Augmentation (or lack thereof) are decided via player input and become what was there all along. An early event involving Tammy has the player choose what her relationship with Sol was growing up between a playmate, a study partner and someone to whom they were mean. Their answer impacts what Sol is offered to do with her. Some of Sol's birthdays have the player pick Sol's favorite gift among several, with said gift becoming the only one that is converted into a card. Sol's biological sex isn't established until right before they start puberty, via asking the player what aspect of a past sex ed lecture was relevant to them, four years into the game. | |

In the "Tangent's Cure" ending, Instance kills herself after seeing the horrific mass extinction of Vertumnan wildlife by the virus she and Tang were forced to make by Lum. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Sym is one of the 10 romanceable characters in the game, but you need to go on enough expeditions to encounter him. He's barely hinted at in a few random events outside the colony, and it's possible to miss him in an entire playthrough, but befriending him is required for the Golden Ending. The card and image for the avoidable Shimmer-induced death are surprisingly easy to miss for the nature of the event they are tied to. It's easy to assume that all one needs to do to get them is let the person die, which is a given in any playthough in which Sol doesn't know how to cure the condition. In reality, the last choice made before the character's death matters and only one choice out of the three offered will unlock the card and the image. The reason that choice is the right one is quite subtle: it gets Sol to Geranium's deathbed sooner. There is a way to avoid having the famine altogether, but it requires having fulfilled three different conditions in previous playthroughs. The only somewhat logical element about them is that two can be fulfilled by focusing on Engineering. One unlocks upon Sol becoming Second Engineer. One requires to complete a robot repair event while having enough Organization (otherwise not needed for the job) and Hal dead. One is an Expeditions event that requires to check the same location no less than three times on different trips. The latter's only clear use at the time is nudging Sol towards one of the special endings. The opportunity to prevent a death that happens outside the colony on the second year without sneaking out doesn't show up from the second playthrough onwards on its own. The prompt to speak to the peer who can help prevent the death will only appear during the right month's overworld phase if a specific stat is high enough, but the stat isn't one naturally raised via working alongside the peer. It can take several playthroughs to even know that the prompt can show up merely from consistently not raising the stat enough during the first couple years. | |

Super Breeding Program | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_7041e520 | comment |
Super Breeding Program: When Sol's generation gets close to later teens, Tang starts crunching the numbers for the colony's prospective genetic diversity. She notices that while the presence of the Heliopause crew means that overall diversity will be even less of a problem than anticipated, the future population has a very high chance of ending up with a high rate of hereditary heart disease if people are left to their own devices. This can be avoided with careful planning over several generations, resulting in a brief exchange over the ethics of such a plan. The trope is outright deconstructed when Tang refuses to contribute her own genetic material to the next generation and people bemoan the fact that her intellect won't be transmitted, while the choice has to do with her not wanting to perpetuate her family's established history of mental illness. If her relationship with Dys is rekindled, she gets motivated to develop augments that make up of genetic predisposition to mental health issues and happily contributes her genes to the next generation. | |

Man-Eating Plant: One Boss Event in the Colony Outskirts has Sol finding a seemingly safe flower to take back to the colony. Unless Sol has enough skill in Animals to know how dangerous it actually is, the flower reveals itself to be a carnivorous plant that tries eating them should they try plucking it out of the ground. Thankfully, a "mysterious stranger" rescues them at the last moment. | |

Villain Has a Point: Even though humans are sapient and can be reasoned with, the Gardeners are absolutely correct about the damage they will do to the environment given the chance. Although it's told from the perspective of the descendants of the Vertumna Group on Earth, the history of the movement includes a line about others fearing that they were a cult breeding supersoldiers using genetech. That wasn't the group's intention, but they were a cult and they do use their genetech to create "superior" children. | |

Killer Rabbit: Some of the xenofauna of Vertumna look cute, but they're still vicious creatures: Manticores are pink goopy-looking creatures, but their spikes and height make it abundantly clear that they're not on your side. Hopeyes are cute little rabbit-kangaroo-mouse hybrids...and when their nests are threatened, can swarm to kill anyone who threatens them. Vriki are small, adorable spider-like creatures with mushrooms growing on their heads and many tentacles, but while the babies mostly don't eat anything bigger than fruit and insects, they come in swarms and can devour you if you disturb them. | |

Schrödinger's Gun | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_76c72a08 | comment |
Schrödinger's Gun: Quite a few elements of the plot are clearly adapting to player choices: Jobs, classes and relaxing activities are done in one-month blocks, but each of Sol's peers can be part of events exclusive to several different activities, resulting in what they are doing during some months adapting to whatever Sol is doing. For example, all three classes have events involving Tangent, but seeing any event involving her implies that she just happens to be taking a specific class at the same time as Sol, regardless of when Sol is taking the class. Another example is biology classes, which Cal will sometimes happen to be taking at the same time as both Sol and Tangent rather than working in Geoponics, his usual workplace. Some events simply don't happen if Sol doesn't find out about them. The artificial plague meant to kill all local wildlife will never come up if Sol doesn't befriend Tangent and the fleet from Earth will be a non-entity unless Sol works as the governor's assistant often enough to eventually walk in on Lum during a specific conversation. | |

Deck Clogger: Delusion cards are the only cards worth negative points, and while they can be used strategically to gain straight or flush bonuses since they're Literal Wild Cards, they deduct from your total score during card challenges. Accumulating too many also has a negative consequence on the narrative, since this means that Sol is being considered "delusional" by the others for telling them about their visions. As a result, Instance forces Sol to take medication for their "psychosis", wiping all their Past-Life Memories, and thus the choices that can only be made after the first run. As you gain higher-valued cards later on, your early game cards eventually become junk, making it hard or impossible to get the target score if you're unlucky to draw them. Since your Empathy must be at least 33 in order to delete them anytime for 50 Kudos each, and relaxing makes you choose only between two random cards to deletenote three if your Empathy is at least 66, you must think carefully about the choices that give you cards. | |

Gaia's Vengeance | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_7831b670 | comment |
Gaia's Vengeance: The colony-breaching attack during Glow is made by multiple xenofauna- not only predators, but species that naturalists could've sworn were docile. Earlier, Sol may notice a tree being cut down and the other trees around it trembling in response. The Gardener Array is a planet-wide, partially fungus-based network of A.I.s responsible for the restoration of Vertumna's biosphere after its original inhabitants fled the ecological collapse of their civilization. As a whole, the Array thinks very poorly of "invasive species" like humanity (and their creators) and they invoke natural disasters and animal attacks against the colony in an attempt to purge what they see as a dangerous infection. | |

Easy Level Trick: By default, Sol can only give a gift to one of their peers once per three-month season, while giving a gift on the right month is necessary to formally discover the birth months of most peers. However, the Friends interface will display the ages of everyone in the colony, peers included, from the beginning of the game. If the player keeps close enough attention to someone's age, it eventually goes up, on a different month of the year depending on the person, which is their proper birth month. | |

The "Joined The Gardeners" Ending: Exactly What It Says on the Tin. Sol reunites with Dys after his departure from the colony and assists with the last steps necessary to get him assimilated into the Gardener Array. The offer to join gets extended to Sol, who accepts. After getting sidetracked by a reintroduction project for a few decades, Sol checks on the colony to find it changed into a sparsely populated People Zoo due to the Gardeners having the knowledge necessary to keep humans from fighting back. | |

The Hopeyes are one-legged kangaroo rat-like aliens with two pairs of eyes, one of which is extra large and sits where their ears would be if they were Earth rodents. | |

The harder the challenge, the more points will be required to clear it. Sidequests reward the player with higher-value cards. | |

The consequences of a typical deconstruction are depicted several years after the fact. According to a conversation with Instance, Dys and Tang are the result of their mother believing that having children would make her feel less lonely. Their mother was dead via suicide by the time they were old enough to start going to school. In the present day, both the twins and the friend of their mother, who's keeping an eye on them, wonder if their mother ever truly cared about them. | |

Capitalism Is Bad: One of the classes the players attend will talk about Earth's history with an emphasis on the destructiveness of capitalism. Your colony seems to actively discourage practices that they feel would reintroduce Earth's troubles, such as discouraging the hoarding of merits to avoid inequality among the community. However, at one point, Sol can argue in favor of capitalism without being called out by the narrative, and even say that capitalism looks bad because the Stratospheric colonists wrote the lessons. | |

The Glow attack destroys all but one of the Strato buildings and the casualties include one of Anemone's brothers regardless of run and Eudicot unless the player actively prevents it. While the colony is still being rebuilt, a second spaceship from Earth crashes on Vertumna. Said spaceship contains a bunch of soldiers whose pre-crash purpose was clearly to arrest the Strato residents. Once things have settled down, the colony has a new governor in the form of the second ship's captain, all functions have shifted locations and there are three extra people close to Sol's age who can be interacted with. | |

Raised by the Community | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_910fd1ec | comment |
Raised by the Community: All adults taking part in raising the children is the norm in the Strato colony. Blood ties only matter in terms of sharing family bedrooms and being the prime decision-maker when it comes to the child's life. Several situations show the subtleties of the system: Tang and Dys, who are orphaned twins, still have an adult in the colony who is considered their prime caretaker. Upon finding out that children in older times had to do Egg Sitting as a deterrent to reproducing too early, Sol doesn't understand the deterrent aspect due to taking for granted the idea that a child's biological parents wouldn't be the only ones caring for them. The colony is noted to have some children who live in the daycare full-time. A random blurb from babysitting mentions that they consist of orphans, children whose parents decided to take the communal child-rearing further than others and Anne's own three youngest sons, who are triplets. When Tammy has her baby, she insists on taking care of her all by herself, believing that she can fully apply the skills she learned from babysitting and that it's her full responsibility as a mother to tend to her. Despite clearly looking ragged from giving birth, she refuses to let the other grownups or even her partner tend to her baby in the creche, unless Sol offers to babysit for her. That's when she realizes that it's good to have extra hands in raising a child. | |

Ret-Gone: Exposing the Stratospheric to the wormhole un-shielded detonates the ship's reactor and the ensuing blast collapses the wormhole, retroactively unmaking the entire plot, leading to a timeline where there is no escape from a dying Earth. The Vertumna Group makes a go at establishing a compound on Earth, but they are eventually overrun by desperate refugees. Restarting at this point leads to an endless loop of the "Life on Earth" ending until the player asks the ancient Sol to undo their actions. | |

First Period Panic | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_9588c44b | comment |
First Period Panic: Sol gets their first period when they're 13 if the player selects the corresponding puberty option for them. They can discreetly ask their mom for help, and she assures them that it's alright because it's just a sign that they're growing up, and the narration states that they can get hormone blockers if it's bothering them too much. | |

There Are No Therapists | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_96fbeaf | comment |
There Are No Therapists: The Stratospheric only had one therapist, the mother of Dys and Tang who died before the events of the game. However, if Sol helps Rex build his bar, they can take up a job as a bartender, helping people through their issues as best they can without any specialized training. Should Dys and Tang be reconciled, Tang becomes a fierce advocate of mental health, albeit mostly through genetic alterations rather than therapy. | |

Floral Theme Naming | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_9723a8b8 | comment |
Anemone is named not just after a sea creature, but also a brightly-colored flower, which is sometimes called the "windflower" because its dead petals fly everywhere, appropriate for a spirited young girl who loves playing sportsball. | |

Androids Are People, Too: Sol learns while doing robot repairs that Congruence is such an advanced A.I. that she's compassionate like humans and cares deeply about Professor Hal. Some of the robots that Sol repairs break out of their original programming to become their own selves, one of which becomes Sol's pet if they succeed in repairing it. Symbiosis and Nocticulent are technically Organic Technology androids, but treated as full characters by the narrative. | |

Eldritch Location | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_9bee1a7f | comment |
Eldritch Location: Even by the standards of alien planets, Vertumna is weird. Rocks that empathically project feelings onto you and heat-hazes through which you can see alternate versions of yourself are par for the course, to say nothing of the magic-granting wormhole hanging above it. Some of its weirdness is explained by alien technology, but most of it is just Vertumna's natural state. | |

Let Them Die Happy | |

Let Them Die Happy: One of the characters who can potentially die early in the game is a parent. Sol can potentially be at the location of their death because of an act of disobedience and get mistaken for their child by them, while it's impossible for the actual child to be reunited with the parent before the death occurs. It's possible for Sol to pretend to be the dying person's child during their last moments. | |

Interface Spoiler | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_9cb3e22e | comment |
Interface Spoiler: Right from the start of the game, there is a meter tracking how much Sol rebels against the colony. A meter which would not be there unless rebellion was important to the story at some point. Players who regularly check the gallery during their first playthrough are bound to get spoiled: The backgrounds associated with the Helio colony appear there as soon as Sol gets a random Flash Forward that uses them and are given labels that include the colony's name. Most of the still-locked "Cheevos" (achievements) have names that are roundabout enough to only make sense once the player has run into the event to which they relate. Maxing out friendship with one of the romance options will unlock an achievement named after them. Not only is one of the romance options Permanently Missable Content for players who neglect exploration, another dies way too early into the first playthrough for their friendship to get anywhere near maxed out. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Sol notices that Geranium and Flulu are working extremely long hours and seem to be worried about something at various points of the first playthrough's first three years. On the fourth year, it turns out that the Stratospheric lost the supplies necessary to grow Earth plants during the wormhole transit. On the fifth, it turns out that the fourth year's Glow attack damaging the fields got the colony months away from running out of food unless extra work is put into finding local sources of food. As the kitchen helper job becomes available just a little more than a year before the famine begins, a few of the job's generic events hint at the fact it's coming, such as the unexplained delivery of a bunch of sawdust and Antecedent being very careful about the quantities of food used. The fact that the Shimmer is a Pollen-only disease is a hint towards the fact that it's vulnerable to a factor present during Dust, the season that immediately follows. If Sol is able to repair the broken communication device that Dys steals from Command, they are able to pick up bits of a communication that is clearly from Command. The question of who that communication would be for with no other human settlements around comes up. One of the things revealed after the Heliopause lands regardless of playthrough is that Eudicot has been communicating with the ship all along. The Dartboard of Hate holopalm game Dys makes at some point includes a bomb as one of the virtual weapons. If left to his own devices, he eventually plants a real bomb on the colony's walls before disappearing. The fact that the game's target is a picture of Marz, who grows to want to become part of the colony's leadership, makes the game even more prophetic. While relaxing on the walls, Dys can be seen drawing a person who looks nothing like anyone in the colony and says that he's "not good at drawing him yet" if complimented on the drawing. Depending on whether Sol has encountered Sym under the guise of the "Mysterious Stranger" or not, it can foreshadow Sym's very existence or the fact that Dys has also encountered him at a point where Sol has every right to assume he was some sort of hallucination. If the event isn't triggered until after Sol has formally met Sym, they recognize him in the illustration. A conversation with Tang reveals the colony to be at a high risk of getting a high rate of hereditary heart disease in a few generations. She also notes her own heart rate accelerating past an acceptable threshold if she's given the more potent version of blep tea that Sol can make while working in the xenobotany lab. Take a guess as to Tang's cause of death. If Sol speaks to Dys while in a state of mourning because of Sym's apparent death, Dys refuses to believe them about it on the basis that he allegedly saw Sym very recently, even if it's been more than a month since the event. Sol dismisses it as Dys being in denial, but its turns out that Sym actually is still alive via Body Backup Drive and Dys simply continued to see him during work for the entire three months for which the mourning state kept Sol from going on expeditions. | |

Things are a little more realistic when it comes to using the local wildlife as a food source, as Congruence needs to run tests to account for both short-term and long-term dangers. The colony also runs into its first Alien Catnip species a few years in. | |

Continuity Nod: During an event working as a delivery person, it's possible for Sol to discover that Chief Administrator Seeq sculpts as a hobby, via an example of Seeq's output that promptly becomes the quirkiest thing about them. During an event from the Governor's assistant job, Seeq asks Sol if they can trust them for a prospective task. One of Sol's possible responses is to ask Seeq if the task is "about [Seeq's] weird sculptures," (it turns out to not be the case) due to Seeq having last displayed similar behavior during the incident upon which Sol discovered their hobby. | |

Who's on First? | |

Who's on First?: The Secret Pet Plot involving Cal starts with both he and Sol being in the barn in which he's keeping the pet when it hatches. Cal always names the pet "Socks." If it's at least Sol's second time living through the event, they can respond to finding Cal looking at an unseen item he's keeping inside a crate by asking if it's Socks. Since Socks isn't hatched quite yet at that point and it's always the first time from Cal's point of view, a bemused Cal asks why he would be keeping his socks in a barn. Al's full name is Aluminum. He works in construction, for which one of the desirable materials is his namesake. Al has an obvious joke he likes to make if someone nearby is talking about the limited availability of the material on Vertumna. | |

How Dad Met Mom | |

How Dad Met Mom: After the Heliopause arrives, Sol can sit with their dad to listen to the story of how he met their mom. Geranium, who worked part-time at the Earth colony's clinic, thought that he was "too cool" for Flulu and that she and Rhett would get together since both of them are tough fighters, but he fell in love with her when he took care of her after she got injured in an attack. They then applied to work at the Stratospheric together, though Flulu only wanted to "get off [Earth] before anything", but she didn't realize her love for Geranium until they were in space. | |

Odd Friendship: Tammy, the sweeter-than-sugar Nice Girl who wants to be a prolific mother and baker, and Marz, the arrogant Alpha Bitch who wants to run the colony someday, are actually pretty good friends. Marz is also somehow good friends with Tangent, who's a walking case of Acting Your Intellectual Age. The latter can be explained by both Marz and Tang considering themselves more mature than the rest of their peers. Dys and Nomi-Nomi, whose baseline moods couldn't be on more opposite ends of the spectrum if they tried, get along surprisingly well. They do have things in common, such as being misfits with creative minds who picked up a few engineering skills simply because they need them to turn their ideas into proper media. | |

Bee Afraid: The squeedgers are bee-like aliens that attack you if provoked, but since they have a rudimentary danger system, they're easy to sneak past to harvest their honey from the queen. When female squeedgers mature into queens, they metamorphose into immobile hives to nourish their larvae with the honey they secrete from their deep, tunnel-like pores, and they also protect them with an acid mist. | |

Static Role, Exchangeable Character | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_af6e7d83 | comment |
Static Role, Exchangeable Character: On account of various avoidable deaths, there are a few events that can potentially have two different characters fill the same role: During a late-game Vertumnalia Festival, either of Sol's parents can make a vocal comment about Lum's leadership being the kind of thing they left Earth to get away from. If Sol finds a squeedger queen still young enough to be moved while exploring and manages to bring her to the colony so she will anchor in Geoponics instead, both Geranium and Cal can be the one to welcome her while calling her "Your majesty." If Eudicot dies, the character doesn't get replaced for another couple of months, so Seeq fills in for the job in the meantime and is the one to formally hand the position over to the permanent replacement. If Eudicot survives, there is no need for Seeq to fill in and the position is handed over in person. If Professor Hal dies, most job events in which he would have been present if still alive replace him with Congruence all while keeping the dialog practically the same. If either of the two first puberty options are chosen, Sol can ask one of their parents for help or have one of their parents figure out what's up if they handle the resulting mess on their own. Which parent this happens with depends on the option chosen, as it will be the parent who went through the same type of puberty. | |

Easy Sex Change: Downplayed. On the one hand, befriending Tangent implies that the setting's gene therapy based process still takes a significant amount of time and spells out that her puberty is milder than that of someone born with a female body. On the other hand, the mere fact that the physical part of the process has been wrapped up by the time she's nine years old indicates that gender affirming care significantly progressed compared to the present day. | |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_b77808f2 | comment |
The "Peace on Vertumna" Ending: While this doesn't have a unique image like the other special endings, it still counts towards the ending achievements and enhances the "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue in the best possible way. Sol successfully makes peace with the Gardeners by agreeing to their contract that the alien race will take care of the humans and provide them with their needs, on the condition that the humans limit their population and consumption of Vertumna's resources. The two races make a few compromises so that they can live together in harmony, and while a few dissenters leave the colony to break free of Gardener influence (and are "pruned" as punishment), the two races thrive together, and eventually, a second coastal colony is founded as a reward for the humans' efforts in preserving Vertumna. | |

Color Motif: Blue cards relate to academic knowledge, and they can be earned by things like answering a question correctly in school or befriending Tangent. Yellow cards relate to social knowledge, like deducing what someone is worried about or saving Tammy. Red cards relate to physical prowess, like winning a game of sportsball or chasing a Mysterious Watcher. Wild cards are a pinkish-purple rainbow; they're tied to a number of things, including wild leaps of logic and enthusiasm or your visions. | |

Stink Snub: Marz often expresses her disdain towards Dys by complaining that he stinks. The player can choose to have Sol join in, with one such occasion unlocking a card called "being a bully." There is an implied kernel of truth to this, as Dys spends his days sneaking out of the colony via a drainpipe, while Marz refuses to go out in bad weather out of fear for the state of her clothes. | |

Queer Establishing Moment | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_ba1953b2 | comment |
Queer Establishing Moment: For Tangent, this moment can come as early as considering her as a childhood friend and reading the mention of her having undergone genome treatment to make her body conform to her gender. If that part gets skipped due to only considering other children, a piece of her random dialog during her late childhood has her comment that her puberty seems to be going a little differently from that of people who were born with a female set of hormones. As Seeq is non-binary, the player knows as soon as the first time their pronouns appear in dialog. If Sol asks Nomi-Nomi about their gender when they first meet them, the latter will say that they're just glad that the Strato colony has "not-boy, not-girl people" like Seeq, revealing that they're nonbinary like them. If they and Rex are mistaken for having started dating, they mention not liking anyone "that way" and instead regarding Rex like a brother, establishing their asexuality. They also have a piece of random dialog that establishes this, via mentioning being grossed out at the idea of "getting involved" with someone else. If Sol pursues them as a love interest and tells them that they don't like "doing it" either, Nomi-Nomi clarifies that they're actually demisexual, only considering having sex someday if they "really like" the other person first. One Babysitting event has Sol and Tammy discuss who could have been the latter's surrogate mother. The people Sol can suggest are Anne (Anemone's mother), Tirah (Cal's mother), their own mother (Flulu) and "Marz's dad". Choosing the last option confirms that it's given completely seriously and implies Burnish is known to be the one who carried Marz. While working in Medbay, it's possible to witness an exchange between Tangent and Utopia during which Tangent makes a comment about both of them having experienced having a body that doesn't match the woman they are inside. | |

Sadistic Choice | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_babc974 | comment |
Sadistic Choice: Cal and Tammy need to be separated for Sol to become long-term partners with either of them. They are both loving and harmonious as a couple, unlike the other pair that needs to be broken up for Sol to have a chance with either half. As it happens, players aiming to make Cal Sol's husband technically have a second option that those aiming to make Tammy their wife don't: letting Tammy die a few months after the beginning of the game, which has ethical issues of its own, but also can't be avoided during the very first playthrough and takes a single choice to repeat on subsequent ones. If the famine happens and Sol doesn't manage to end it, they will have at least one opportunity to obtain extra food with the full knowledge that it's being taken away from someone else who needs it. However, stealing food deducts from your food supply since Sol still feels bad for it, but at least you'll get a card for it. | |

Act of True Love: Among Sol's peers, Dys in particular has wishes that are at odds with staying in the colony in the long term. Depending of how his plans pan out, Sol may end up actively helping Dys do something that will make him happy, but also guarantees that they will never see him again in human form afterwards. That help carries extra weight if Sol is close friends with him or his romantic partner, as they are choosing his happiness over keeping him in their life. | |

| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_bf1b02b | comment |
Fictional Currency: The colony provides all necessities and many communal luxuries, but anything unique or personal must be bought with "Kudos". This later becomes an issue when Marz attempts to recreate capitalism using Kudos as an actual means of exchange instead of a reward mechanism. | |

The Spartan Way | |

The Spartan Way: Soldiers of the Heliopause are trained from the ground up by being made to beat up anyone they consider weak. New recruits are also hazed by stronger members as part of their initiation rites. | |

Uncoffee | |

Uncoffee: Blep tea, which gets its name from how bitter it is, but is still quite popular as a stimulant. It also has an Alien Catnip side to it, as an event in which a more potent variant is researched has Sol hesitate between giving it to someone who prefers the stimulant aspect and someone who prefers the drug-like aspect. | |

Both Sides Have a Point | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_c02f148d | comment |
Both Sides Have a Point: The game takes this view of the Strato-Helio divide. Strato needs Helio for their food rations (in the first playthrough, at least), more effective weapons, and trained soldiers. Helio needs Strato for their past experience living on Vertumna, their more ethical and less toxic cultural mindset, their larger archive of cultural works, their more powerful AI, the greater acceptance and fulfillment they give the children of Helio unsuited for combat, and Sol's ability to make peace with the Gardeners. This is why all transitions of power between the two are Velvet Revolutions at worst. The conflict between pacifists and fighters in the colony. Cal doesn't believe in violence, and a peaceful solution is possible, but in the meantime, the colony is under attack by an alien threat and humans aren't wrong to defend their new home. | |

Humans Are Warriors | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_c0f87dda | comment |
Humans Are Warriors: A big part of the story is the effect humanity has on nature, for better or for worse. The first time xenofauna attack Strato, an Empathy check against one of them will reveal it is afraid of you, a mere ten-year-old child. And with good reason, because the Combat check to kill it is not hard. In one of the darker routes through the story, Strato concocts an extinction plague less than a decade after landing on the planet. | |

Who Names Their Kid "Dude"?: Dys remarks how odd it is to be named "Dysthymia", another term for persistent depressive disorder, because it reminds him of his mother's neglect and eventual suicide. Inverted in a conversation with Anemone during lookout duty. As Sol grows bored spotting every random thing past the walls, Anemone suggests naming one of the rocks "Steve". Cue Sol's bewilderment, even if the player gave them a "common" name instead, since all the other colonists have esoteric Hippie Names. | |

Good Behavior Points | |

Good Behavior Points: Kudos, the setting's currency, work like the Weird Currency variant, as they are entirely meant to reward others rather than oneself. One can receive them for any act that's appreciated by someone else, while taking them away is a possible means of punishing a disobedient child or work that was too sloppily done. They can also be earned from doing a needed job or doing well in school for an entire month. | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome: The Stratospheric's crash-landing on Vertumna and the two weeks of struggle that followed it are not shown, because Sol was rendered comatose during the first few minutes. Some of the fights that Sol gets to join during Glow attacks if they have enough Bravery come with the implication that some non-combatants are managing to hold their own off-screen in timelines in which Sol can't join those very same fights. | |

Shout-Out | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The old Earth teen magazine that Marz reads during her five-heart event contains a passage that references The Wizard of Oz: Two of the suggested names for the hopeye you can hatch from its egg are Hoptimus Prime and Hop Solo. Similarly, options for the unisaur you can tame include Clever Girl and Twilight Sparkle. The caption for the unlockable image of a manticore attacking Tonin is "Attack on Tonin." One of Nomi-Nomi's events involves talking to them some time after they have discovered a series exclusive to the Stratospheric's archive that they really like only got its finale after the ship left Earth. One of Sol's possible answers to this is "Sounds rough, buddy", which reads suspiciously close Zuko's famous "That's rough, buddy" line from Avatar: The Last Airbender. If Sol tries to hide and observe after Rhett tells them to return to the creche during the second Glow attack, they bump into Kom, who reiterates Rhett's advice all while sarcastically calling them "Naruto." Anemone has two reasons to not like "Annie" as a nickname for herself. One is that her mother, Antecedent, already goes by "Anne." The other is the potential association with a well-known fictional Annie who shares her hair color. A card that can be obtained via making the choice to add spice to something is called "The spice must flow." When Flulu asks the protagonist what they want to be when they grow up, they can say that they want to be a monster hunter. Flulu's response? If Sol falls for Marz's trick into getting them to yell at customers to earn more tips for her, Marz laughs and gives them the tips anyway, saying that she didn't mean to "turn [them] into the Hulk or anything." Another Hulk reference is made when Sol insists on delivering the soil to Geoponics by themself by telling Cal, "Sol Smash!!!" If Sol gets a lecture from Flulu for skipping school a second time, the lecture includes the phrase "We live in a society." Professor Hal's nickname is also the name of the spaceship AI from a well-known sci-fi movie. He's even an AI programmer himself! If Sol is close enough to Dys to figure out where he might have gone after leaving the ninth Vertumnalia Festival, they will find him in the middle of trying to convince Sym of how dangerous humans are for the planet with a couple of hypotheticals that consist of all the planet's trees getting cut down and its rivers getting poisoned. This alludes to the best-known version of a famous quote: "When the last tree has been cut down, the last fish caught, the last river poisoned, only then will we realize that one cannot eat money." When Tang explains to Sol her plans for a Super Breeding Program in order to prevent hereditary diseases from being passed down, they can tell her, "Cool motive, still eugenics." The Creativity skill check for your first time working at the bar says, "Take chances and make mistakes!" The scene where you name the stray vacubot gives you four sections worth of pop-culture name suggestions before you can finally choose to give it your own. Some of these suggestions are R.O.B, R2-D2, C3PO, Asimov, Optimus Prime, Bender, and WALL•E. The board game that you can play with Marz and Rex is all but stated to be Monopoly since it involves trying to bankrupt the other players by charging them rent for your properties. One generic defense training session has you playing a virtspace game where you slice fruits and vegetables thrown at you with your hands. When Rex checks in on Nomi's progress on the latter's interactive holonovel, he says, "How's the game going, Nomestar Runner?" If you team up with Nomi to investigate half the lake's circumference to study its water, they go, "Team Clockwise is blasting off again!" | |

Sol remembering the whole thing about Gardeners being organic constructs whose closest thing to sleep is updating their Body Backup Drive in a vat in the events relating to the overall Gardener plot, but being genuinely confused by any allusion to Sym's vat during the latter's friendship events. This one easily happens due to both plotlines progressing via talking with Sym while prompted to do so on an exploration map. | |

It's Up to You | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_cc374ba6 | comment |
It's Up to You: Sol's actions will make the difference between the colony surviving and being wiped out, and they're the only one who can save many lives. Some of that is because of their visions giving them information from other lives, but not all; sometimes they're just able to pull off something that the colony's adults can't manage because they're the protagonist. One example of the latter is that both the Engineering storyline and researching xenobotany have events that can't progress without materials found outside the colony, but Sol has to take shifts with the surveyors to obtain them on their own rather than simply ask the people heading out anyway to do so. Once the materials are obtained, they won't be properly exploited unless Sol at least participates in researching them. | |

Mistaken for Romance | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_cc8109ab | comment |
If Sol asks Nomi-Nomi about their gender when they first meet them, the latter will say that they're just glad that the Strato colony has "not-boy, not-girl people" like Seeq, revealing that they're nonbinary like them. If they and Rex are mistaken for having started dating, they mention not liking anyone "that way" and instead regarding Rex like a brother, establishing their asexuality. They also have a piece of random dialog that establishes this, via mentioning being grossed out at the idea of "getting involved" with someone else. If Sol pursues them as a love interest and tells them that they don't like "doing it" either, Nomi-Nomi clarifies that they're actually demisexual, only considering having sex someday if they "really like" the other person first. | |

Cassandra Truth | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_cf92fea8 | comment |
Cassandra Truth: Sol tries to tell people about their visions, but (because not all of them come true) is dismissed as a liar. Eventually, Sol mostly stops talking about them, for reasons decided by the player. If the player insists on continuing to talk about them, they start being considered delusional, and they get Delusion cards, which have negative values. Sol themself turns out to not be completely immune to this in one instance. They dismiss Dys telling them that he saw Sym recently, while Sol is mourning after witnessing Sym's death, as Dys responding to the information with denial. If Sol ever leaves the colony again after their mourning period is over, it turns out that Sym has a Body Backup Drive, meaning Dys had truly seen Sym more recently than Sol had. In Nomi's holonovel, you can report to the police about the alien invasion, but they don't believe you, and they imprison you as you helplessly watch the aliens destroy earth. | |

The Strato colony was a personal project by people who didn't fit in on Earth, so their ship is low-tech, relatively small, and communal note families share a bedroom, and all living spaces are public. Think "visible bolts and worn cream paint" rather than "smooth white plastic". Apparently they stole a much more advanced A.I for the project. | |

Mundane Made Awesome: If Sol is nonbinary when first meeting Nomi-Nomi, it's possible for the two to exchange the "secret nonbinary high-five"... Which is described as "like a regular high-five, pretty much". | |

Developer's Foresight: It's possible for Sol to become a regular at a given workplace, focus on other things to the point of not going there at all for a significant amount of time, then return. Upon the latter event, the place's supervisor and the peer who works there the most will make remarks about Sol coming to work with them for the first time in quite a while. | |

ToiletHumor | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_d442f9d1 | comment |
Toilet Humor: Tangent's presentation for the science fair at the first Vertumnalia Festival involves using the hydroconversion machine for other benefits besides making urine drinkable. Despite her saying the word "pee" many times, Sol finds Tang's presentation boring. During the 4th Vertumnalia Festival, Geranium serves pixie beans, the first domesticated Vertumnan crop, which glows in the dark. Flulu jokes that the community will have to thank him for the "light show in [their] toilets tonight." One time during work at the Supply Depot, Tangent feels embarrassed when she asks Sol to get her "fart pills" for her upset stomach. Marz then teases her that she got a bad case of "Bluegut", when she farts blue dust and stains her pants with it, and she makes her check her own butt, to her dismay. If the event during which Seeq makes Sol deliver a paper report to the rest of the Council happens after Utopia has become Chief Surveyor, Utopia's reaction to getting a paper report includes wondering if Eudicot plans to reintroduce toilet paper next. When talking with Cal about animal facts, Sol remembers the time when Tang brought a skunkbug to Biology class. It released a stench so horrible, everyone thought she farted, and Professor Hal had to clear the whole room, and it took weeks to clean up the beanbags. Cal, however, remembers that it was Sol who brought the bug to class instead. | |

Our Wormholes Are Different | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_d51553de | comment |
Our Wormholes Are Different: The wormhole leading to Vertumna is what gives Sol their precognition. At some point in their timeline, they merged with a psychedelic/psychic Vertumnan megafauna at the perihelion of the planet's orbit around the wormhole, shredding their consciousness across every single possible moment of any theoretical incarnation of their own life. It is possible to use the precognitive abilities this manifests as from any individual Sol's POV to sacrifice the Stratospheric to collapse the wormhole, "ending" the time loop.note You can let yourself back into the loop by asking yourself nicely. | |

Literal Wild Card | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_d5609744 | comment |
Delusion cards are the only cards worth negative points, and while they can be used strategically to gain straight or flush bonuses since they're Literal Wild Cards, they deduct from your total score during card challenges. Accumulating too many also has a negative consequence on the narrative, since this means that Sol is being considered "delusional" by the others for telling them about their visions. As a result, Instance forces Sol to take medication for their "psychosis", wiping all their Past-Life Memories, and thus the choices that can only be made after the first run. | |

No-Paper Future | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_d5a08429 | comment |
No-Paper Future: Averted. Despite the Strato crew being bio-augmented with holographic palms, Eudicot and Seeq miss the feel of paper and still use it after landing on Vertumna. They plan to cut down the local trees to make paper out of them. Congruence also teaches her students pen-and-paper handwriting in Humanities class to teach them low-tech solutions in case their technology breaks down. Nomi-Nomi is also found drawing on paper during one of their events. Children also don't get holopalms until they're eight, so any drawing the youngest ones do is on paper. | |

Anti-Frustration Features: You can toggle Seen Dialog so that dialog choices that you already made in a previous run can be marked and skipped. It also speeds up parts of it so you can skip straight to the choices. Thanks to your Past-Life Memories, you can instantly skip certain subplots once you've learned how to complete them in previous runs, such as finding the cure for Shimmer to save your dad. To compensate being only found on expeditions and not gaining friendship when given gifts, Sym's heart meter increases by two full hearts (20 points) each time you have a full conversation with him on the overworld. | |

Equivalent Exchange | |

Equivalent Exchange: To reach Vertumna, a ship must lose whatever it needs the most. The Strato lost the microbial soil and hydroponics its people needed to grow food, the Helio lost the leadership necessary to keep them from devolving into a tyrannical militia, and so on. Future versions of Sol are able to avoid paying Strato's price, but only because it was already paid in a previous timeline they learned from. | |

Even if the player has prevented every possible death, forged a lasting peace between humans and nature, or destroyed the cycle entirely, the ancient Sol simply remarks that there is more to be done and offers their hand to begin again. | |

Changeling Tale | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_dfa1ee91 | comment |
Changeling Tale: A setting-appropriate version of the trope gets discussed a couple of times: Dys runs into the notion of human babies getting replaced by beings of another species and comes to wonder if it could have happened to himself and his twin sister, Tang. Both of them are knowledge-craving introverts who have trouble connecting with their peers and also see a lot of appeal in the idea of discarding their human body to come an AI. During their childhood, Nomi-Nomi thought that themself and Rex, who are the My Species Doth Protest Too Much members of the Heliopause, were changelings. Their active imagination went as far as getting Teleportation technology involved in their theory. | |

Veganopia: That was the original ideal of the Stratospheric's people — they use soy and other plant-based proteins in food to avoid the ecological burden of raising domesticated animals on the ship. However, when they actually arrive on their new home, most of their food reserves and the soil needed to grow more are destroyed (unless Sol takes a very specific route), and as a result, hunting and ranching become part of their lifestyle even before the Heliopause arrives. | |

Fake Difficulty | |

Fake Difficulty: The game doesn't allow Sol to give each of their peers a gift more than once a season unless they max out their Creativity skill to reduce the cooldown to every month instead. Since birth months are mainly discovered via giving the right person a gift on the right month, it's possible to lock oneself out of the discovery for an entire year simply by giving them a gift on the month right before their birthday. Everyone but the twins having different birth months from each other won't necessarily cross the player's mind on its own, making it hard to figure out that only giving gifts to the children with unknown birthdays on months that aren't already "taken" is a viable strategy. | |

Star-Crossed Lovers: Sol and Sym, as the former is human, and the latter is a Gardener: one of the AI caretakers of the planet, most of whom are trying to get rid of the new invasive species. On one occassion the game even explicitly refers to your relationship as such. | |

Not Blood Siblings | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_e68d9ddd | comment |
Not Blood Siblings: This gets briefly discussed if Sol suggests that Tammy's surrogate mother could have been Cal's mother Tirah. Since Cal and Tammy are a Puppy Love pair who become the first people to conceive a child in the colony if Tammy doesn't die as a child, Tammy is quite quick to point out the reasons why her surrogate mother can't be Tirah. This implies that the idea of having been carried by the same woman as Cal makes her uneasy, even if they are otherwise not genetically related at all. | |

All Animals Are Dogs: Vriki, which are spider-octopus aliens, can be tamed and trained just like Earth dogs. Cal suggests training it with a clicker if it's your pet. Socks, Cal's own pet, responds to orders like a dog if properly trained. | |

Sympathetic P.O.V. | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_e7db27c7 | comment |
Sympathetic P.O.V.: Sol was raised in the Stratospheric commune and sharing their values, so the game initially presents ideals such as vegetarianism, communal childrearing, and anti-capitalism as simple truth. However, the game also shows that these ideals appear to be natural because that's how Sol was raised, and they have the opportunity to question and oppose many of them in favor of other systems. | |

The Talk: Marz mentions that her dads taught her about reproduction when she was growing up, but were invoked "squicked out" when she asked them how to get someone to "actually have sex" with her. One time while helping their dad out with the animals, Sol sees him untangling two bristleslugs from "wrestling" each other. He refuses to go into the details on what they were doing, but 10 minutes later, they entangle themselves again. | |

Velvet Revolution | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_f18ac036 | comment |
The game takes this view of the Strato-Helio divide. Strato needs Helio for their food rations (in the first playthrough, at least), more effective weapons, and trained soldiers. Helio needs Strato for their past experience living on Vertumna, their more ethical and less toxic cultural mindset, their larger archive of cultural works, their more powerful AI, the greater acceptance and fulfillment they give the children of Helio unsuited for combat, and Sol's ability to make peace with the Gardeners. This is why all transitions of power between the two are Velvet Revolutions at worst. | |

Surprise Party: Your friends organize one for you for your 18th birthday, with Marz as the host. You play along with the surprise because you're tired from the siege last Glow Season, but the Helio youth crash the party because they think they can sit "wherever [they] want" at the lounge, to Cal's frustration. In subsequent runs, you see the surprise party coming thanks to your Past-Life Memories, but you can still attend by pretending to be surprised. | |

Mercy Kill: One event while exploring the Colony Outskirts during Glow Season has you encountering a manticore that's dying from being trapped in a sawmill for several days. You can try putting it out of its misery, but your psychic connection with the wormhole weakens your resolve to do it until you're put in a trance. By the time you snap out of it, the manticore has mysteriously disappeared. The final event of Dys' friendship/romance arc involves a hopeye getting mangled by one of the colony's anti-pest traps. One of the choices made during the discussion in who between Sol and Dys ends its suffering. | |

Mix-and-Match Critters | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_f5eda11 | comment |
Mix-and-Match Critters: Many xenofauna look like combinations of various Earth animals. The unisaur looks sort of like an antelope, except it has small forearms like a tyrannosaur, a single curved horn, and a long brushlike tail. The hopeye is a giant kangaroo mouse with purple fur, several eyes and the behaviour of a rabbit (living in groups, thumping its feet to warn of danger). Vriki are pink spider-octopus aliens that tend to latch onto people's legs. Dillypillars are tiny caterpillar-like bugs that grow into long, slender dragons the size of the colony walls. Manticores are lion-mantis creatures that are extremely aggressive towards other xenos and humans alike. Floatcows are bovine aliens with long grasshopper legs that they use to leap high into the air. | |

Railroading | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_f6f6adeb | comment |
Railroading: Even if Sol maxes out their Relationship Values with Anemone, she always hooks up with Vace on Sol's 17th birthday no matter how much she appears to reciprocate Sol's feelings beforehand. Unless Sol specs their stats right and/or finds definitive proof that Vace is a scumbag, Anemone will angrily reject Sol if they confess to her, saying it's too late and that she's happy with Vace despite him being abusive towards her. When Lum orders everyone in the Council to take on an official second-in-command, Cal will be made Second Cultivator over Geranium, who is already considered the unofficial Second Cultivator. The latter fact gets pointed out by Cal himself. This is the result of the fact that it's entirely possible for Geranium to be either dead or Chief Cultivator by that point and makes one less alternative late-game scenario to account for. A couple of characters whose lives can be saved by Sol's actions will step down from their respective positions soon after and hand the positions over to the characters who take over if they die. This results in the replacements being around for the same events regardless of playthrough. The famine ends soon after it claims its potential victim and the avoidable Shimmer-induced death is an alternate key to the cure, resulting in both plotlines eventually losing relevance even if they don't get solved in a given playthrough. Each official Council second-of-command position from the last year has three people who can potentially get voted into it: a Helio, the Strato peer who works under the Council member and Sol themself. Close friend, romantic partner and some job endings mention the Strato peer eventually taking over a specific Council seat even if the Helio or Sol won that playthrough's vote for it. It's especially noticeable because putting in enough work in a location to get Sol voted second-in-command is a surefire way to reach a high friendship level with the peer that works there, if not start a romance with them. | |

Script Breaking | |
| I Was a Teenage Exocolonist (Video Game) / int_f75c8193 | comment |
Script Breaking: The game sometimes has issues keeping track of what Sol is supposed to know between Dys' friendship plotline, Sym's friendship plotline and the overall Gardener plotline, and sometimes gets even more confused when the options to use the Past-Life Memories to streamline things kick in. This can result in the following occurrences: Seeing Sym casually mention Sol and Dys in the same breath during dialog available while choosing to talk to him right after his "first proper contact" event, then have Sol return to the colony to have a conversation with Dys that is written as if Sol has no idea Dys and Sym already know each other prior to it. Sol remembering the whole thing about Gardeners being organic constructs whose closest thing to sleep is updating their Body Backup Drive in a vat in the events relating to the overall Gardener plot, but being genuinely confused by any allusion to Sym's vat during the latter's friendship events. This one easily happens due to both plotlines progressing via talking with Sym while prompted to do so on an exploration map. | |

The Dartboard of Hate holopalm game Dys makes at some point includes a bomb as one of the virtual weapons.

The fact that the game's target is a picture of Marz, who grows to want to become part of the colony's leadership, makes the game even more prophetic. | |

They decide that the experiment and results were educational and fun but probably not something that should be widely reproduced. | |
