| Starbound (Video Game) | comment |
After waking up late and nearly missing your own graduation to officially become a member of the Terrene Protectorate, disaster strikes when a mysterious entity simply known as The Ruin begins destroying Earth. As you jump into a barely functioning space ship to escape, you find yourself hopelessly lost in a sea of stars. From there, you must visit procedurally generated planets to research technology, meet new people, explore, and save the universe.Starbound is a Wide-Open Sandbox Scifi Adventure game. invokedNot to be confused with a Classic Mac game that lets you conquer planets to get more ships and destroy opposing races, nor with a Lucky Star fic aiming to parody EarthBound.Take Terraria and give it a more Science Fiction based focus with space travel and you have Starbound. Or as some like to say Terraria IN SPACE! It is developed by Chucklefish, an indie game company started by Finn "Tiy" Brice of Terraria fame along with several new faces.Players may choose one of the playable races for their characters: the Apex, the Avians, the Humans, the Hylotl, the Floran, the Glitch, or the Novakid. Each race has a bit of lore attached to it and will tie in to the primary storyline.The game is singleplayer or multi-player capable and will have the possibility of other modes of play added in at a later date. Additional features may be added via the communities suggestion system as free post release content.Beta was released on December 4th, 2013 for all who preordered the game, and the final game was released on July 22nd, 2016. The game receives semi-regular content updates and bugfixes, with the 1.4 Bounty Hunter update as the final update as of June 2019. | |

Abnormal Ammo: Uncommon and rarer guns can shoot bullets with special effects, such as ricocheting shots, piercing shots, bullets that split into two shortly after leaving the barrel, and (for legendary guns only) Sticky Bomb bullets that attach to solid blocks and explode when an enemy touches them. Meanwhile, grenade launchers can shoot rounds that resemble Mario's fireball, cluster bouncing grenades, and even mice and pigs. There's even a gun that shoots tentacles! | |

Early Game Hell | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: Mostly patched out but during the earlier builds this was certainly the case. Your starting multi tool took about 15 seconds to chop down a tree, and that much time to mine out a single block of cobblestone. Your only early means of self-defense was a broken sword, and if you went to any planet with a threat level higher than your armor, monsters killed you quickly. Once you crafted an axe and a copper pick, things would go much more smoothly. | |

Remember When You Blew Up a Sun? | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_17942015 | comment |
Remember When You Blew Up a Sun?: You can find a book detailing an (in)famous military maneuver made by a Human commander during one of their earliest conflicts with the Florans, entailing the commander dumping several thousand gallons of what is basically Agent Orange on the Florans. This didn't have the intended effect. Instead of killing them it made them drunk, but still achieved the desired effect of allowing the humans to retake the area long enough to evacuate the colonists. Judging by the last line of the book, it serves as this trope to the rest of the USCM. | |

Terraform | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_19944e8f | comment |
Terraform: Clearing Ancient Vaults provides access to a Terraforge, which in turn can produce Terraformers (provided you brought the appropriate materials) that can gradually change the biome of a whole world to one of the player's liking (whether that be a lush Garden or a hellish Decayed one). Ancient Vault end bosses may also drop Microformers, which can do the same for specialized microbiomes like Crystaline or Eyepatch). | |

Lord British Postulate | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_1a1ea492 | comment |
Lord British Postulate: The Erchius Ghost on moons is supposed to be unharmable and uncapturable by all means, but when it was first introduced players found creative ways to hurt, kill, or even capture it — via lava, using the Pollen Pump weapon, and capture pods. The devs patched this out rather quickly, however. | |

Violation of Common Sense | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_1b2b1d2c | comment |
Violation of Common Sense: Well, it's not the player character's fault per se, but the player can create colonies of people on any planet, who give currency and item rewards to their landowners. The rewards scale if tenants are hosted on more dangerous planets; from a gameplay perspective, this makes sense, since those dangerous planets generally come later in player progression. Story-wise, who in their right mind would pay more to live on a volcano planet than a less deadly one? | |

Fantastic Fruits and Vegetables: Some of the alien crops can be bizarre. Oculemons are pretty much eyeball fruit. Automatoes are metallic-looking tomatoes that contain screws.

Avians are a strongly religious race with a heavy Mayincatec aesthetic. Avians value piety to their god, Kluex, above all else, and those who renounce their faith are summarily excommunicated. | |

Nausea Dissonance | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_2b8e2d45 | comment |
Nausea Dissonance: The PC has different reactions to certain objects depending on their race, which often results in this: Most of the PCs are disturbed by the Flesh, Bone and Primitive furniture sets, but the Floran PC thinks they look tasty. The Novakid PC is the only one not disgusted by a spittoon as presumably they're used to them. The Glitch PC seems to be particularly disturbed by rust as it would be the Glitch equivalent of something like gangrene. When inspecting a filthy mattress, most races will be horrified but the human PC will simply remark "I've slept on worse". The Hylotl PC is the only one not disgusted by poop, regarding it as a natural process. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Like Borderlands, the random gun generation can give weapons that are of common rarity that are less than useful. An example is pistols, one of the easiest guns to acquire, can deal one damage per shot, take 8 energy per shot, and have a firing rate of 3.30 (which is pretty fast). The end result is a pistol that can only really be used to pepper enemies from afar. Many cool weapons found on planets tend to be weaker than player-crafted weapons of the same level. Pickaxes and drills. They increase your mining speed exponentially with each material, but don't last very long before breaking and are limited to mining the area directly next to the player. Throwable weapons. They do more damage than most weapons (especially against durable humanoid enemies) and some of them are classified as "hunting" weapons (increasing the drop chance from monsters). However, they are consumable items instead of using energy like guns and they tend to clog the inventory. | |

During the beta, while not exactly the best of ideas, there was nothing outright stopping the player from heading to 'mid-to-end-game' planets first and foremost. With enough luck and dodging skills, it was possible for players to get weapons and armor way above what they should be able to have at that point. | |

After the End | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_334e48a1 | comment |
After the End: The game begins with you barely escaping the destruction of Earth by a giant tentacle monster from space. Many planets bear the ruins of previous inhabitants. On lower-risk planets (i.e., peaceful ones like Garden or Forest biomes) these are generally limited to the odd ruins of a stone or wooden house, but on more dangerous planets such as those with a Toxic or Scorched biome the background picture makes it pretty clear this planet used to have a pretty advanced civilization until the climate went to hell. | |

Game-Breaking Bug: One of the sidequest for settlers is concerning about protecting one of the fellow settlers.

Burn the Witch!: The original Glitch PC's origin has them being declared a heretic after becoming self aware, and being forced to flee the planet to escape execution. You can find a codex in Glitch villages of a local authority declaring self-aware Glitch to be victims of a "plague of madness" (actual medieval societies did believe insanity to be contagious), and another from a self-aware Glitch urging others to escape to the stars to avoid this. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: The hunting bow can be crafted very early. It's slow to fire, but does a good bit of damage that early on, especially since you don't have any other ranged weapons to start out with. It also increases the chance of getting meat, leather and other hunting products from enemies, which are great for early survival. The Matter Manipulator. It can't mine very fast, even at its increased speed upgrade, and its mining area is only 2x2, (compared to the 3x3 of pickaxes) but it will never break, can be upgraded to collect water and other liquids, can reach a good distance, and cannot be dropped by mistake. Since update Upbeat Giraffe, it has its own spot in your inventory (freeing a block on the grid), can be upgraded to mine faster, get a bigger mining area and can mine liquids. As of Spirited Giraffe, it becomes even more useful since not only are pickaxes and drills no longer craftable, but they also break far quicker when found. And now as of the official release, it starts off 2x2, slow, solid matter only, and within five blocks of you, but can be upgraded to collect liquids, wire electronics, color objects, reach up to eight blocks away, dig out 5x5 spaces, and break down matter twice as fast as the best drill or pickaxe found randomly. For all the fancy foods you can make, the most efficient, in terms of storage, is boiled rice. As uncooked rice stacks, unlike actual food in the base game, you only need to plop a campfire (or find an equivalent) and churn out as much boiled rice as you need whenever you're hungry. Technically though, roasted mushrooms are more efficient overall since - despite them needing 5 mushrooms to make on a open fire - they can be grown from a mushroom 'tree' instead of needing to be farmed. Rice wins in storage since it's 1 to 1, where mushrooms are 5 to 1, but with how high the uncooked versions can stack the storage efficiency doesn't really come into play. Canned food. Can be bought from the outpost for a relatively cheap price, will near always fill you up to full and stays fresh for so long that it practically never spoils. Once you have access to the outpost, you won't need to hunt for food again unless you're cheap or want to get the bonuses provided by higher-level cooked foods. While you can unlock other abilities to replace the basic ones you can unlock at the start of the game, the three starting ones you can unlock at the outpostnote A Double Jump, a dash and a morph ball are by far the most versatile for any given situation. | |

Huh", which many players will probably dismiss as them just seeing what they want to, considering how... eccentric they can be regarding stabbing. However, doing the same with a Glitch PC will have them say "Analysis. This display appears to read 'stab a meatman' in binary. How unusual".note "Stab a meatman" in binary is 0101001101110100011000010110001000100000011000010010000001101101011001010110000101110100011011010110000101101110. | |

Schizo Tech: The Glitch are programmed not to fully grasp that they're robots and cyborgs in an otherwise medieval European society. They also like to use bows while you might be facing them with a shotgun or rocket launcher. Despite the advanced technology available to players common starting tools are made of stone and bows are used to hunt for food from animal life. The most extreme example? As soon as the game begins, the player is presented with a handheld nanomanipulator. The very first thing they're likely to do with it is use it to build a pickaxe. Lampshaded by the pickaxe description, which says it's so last millennium. | |

Bad Boss: The Letheia Corporation, who runs the Erchius Mining Facility. First sign that a horrible monster has awoken in the place? Lock the place down, seal the workers inside, and cut off all forms of communication so they can't tell anyone what happened... but not before sending them a cordial "Thank you for having worked for us, bye" message. It even turns out this is standard procedure, meaning they're aware of the monsters but don't do anything in the form of precautions, much less find safer work environments. | |

Glowing Flora | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_3e80f488 | comment |
Glowing Flora: Luminescent plant life is far from uncommon in the alien biomes of the game, and is often put to practical use as a source of lighting. Bioluminescence biomes are full of glowing plants, alongside glowing rocks and glowing critters. You can harvest the local flora's "glow fibre" to create glowsticks and glowing furniture to light up your own nights, some of which just consist of potting glowing bushes, flowers and vines to use as nightlamps. Slime biomes are full of glowing slime pods. Florans illuminate their homes with glowing plants that give off a muted green light, instead of using more conventional methods of illumination. Their chief reason for doing this is because, being intelligent plants themselves, they have a profound fear of fire. The ocean floors are lit by glowing "oshrooms", or ocean mushrooms. | |

Advancing Boss of Doom: Of a sort. The Erichus Ghost begins to hound you the second you mine a single bit of fuel from a moon. It will constantly advance on you, and has a corrosive aura that kills you in seconds if you get too close. There's also the tiny matter of the fact that it is completely invincible. And as if that wasn't enough, it also increases its speed relative to how much fuel you're carrying! In fact, the only way to remove the Erichus Ghost from a moon is to terraform the entire moon, but that is no easy task. | |

Blatant Lies: Many of the codexes you can find in the game are very blatant propaganda pieces that directly contradict the things you see in the game, contradict other codexes, or even contradict themselves. A notable example is the hylotl codex "A Treatise on the Floran" which is basically a The Reason You Suck speech against the entire floran race, calling them out on every crime they ever committed against the hylotl, then ends with a very half-hearted sounding "we definitely forgive them" | |

Artificial Atmospheric Actions | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_4bef247f | comment |
Artificial Atmospheric Actions: You can find villages of wooden houses on Scorched and Volcanic planets, where the local weather includes rain of fire. The houses will inevitably catch fire, furniture pops loose when their base blocks are destroyed... and the villagers will accuse you of stealing and turn hostile, due to the game's programming. Never mind building wooden houses on a fiery planet, why do they think you're responsible for the weather? (It does make sense for the medieval Glitch, though). NPCs will happily let you ransack their chests and crates, but flip out and call the guards the second you dig up some sand too close to their house. Some of the procedurally generated quests make them NPCs that give them seem incredibly stupid. They can include delivering a message to someone in the same room, trading away an item only to then ask for the same item later in the quest chain, bringing someone home who's less than a screen away from their village, collecting a crop that's found growing in the village, and so on. Villagers will tell you off for stealing if you break anything in their village, even if you put it there yourself and they saw you doing it. A villager may ask you to make some woven fabric, for example, and watch as you put down your spinning wheel to make it, then shout at you when you try to take it back. This happens even if the item is something they couldn't possibly want, like a pile of poo. | |

Call to Adventure | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_4c095112 | comment |
Call to Adventure: The backstory of all races of characters has them being a freshly-appointed member of the Terrene Protectorate just before the Ruin destroys the planet, but before the final release of the game, each race had their own stories. Human PCs must look for a new planet to settle because the Earth was destroyed by The Ruin. Avian PCs narrowly avoided the wrath of the Stargazers and fled their homeworld as an exile and an atheist. Floran PCs have grown tired of their fellows' way of life and cannibalism, and look for a more refined, exciting hunt (and want to make friends). Glitch PCs have become self-aware, and thus were viewed as freaks by their own people and were forced to flee as outcasts. Apex PCs are rebels against the Miniknog, and are fleeing the repercussions of said rebellion after it was crushed. Hylotl PCs are missionaries, looking to spread peace and enlightenment throughout the universe. Novakid PCs awake to find themselves in a broken spaceship amidst the cosmos, and explore the universe seeking for answers. | |

Artistic License – Paleontology | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_4c4bebf4 | comment |
Artistic License – Paleontology: If you fail the minigame to reveal and recover a fossil, you only get bones from the deposit. There are also the Glitch and Floran fossils, which are made of metal and wood respectively. The problem is that fossils aren't actually bones (or wood). In fact, true fossils are completely inorganic. A true fossil is, in essence, a stone casting of a bone (or whatever else), created by minerals seeping through layers of sediment and filling the empty spaces left behind by decayed organic matter. | |

Useless Useful Spell | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_4c709317 | comment |
Useless Useful Spell: There are 14 unique EPP augments, but the only ones that ever get used are Damage, Healing, Mobility, Light and possibly Poison Resist. This is because an EPP can only have one augment equipped, and some augments are just more useful than others. Swimming or Thorns is nice to have in theory, but they're not worth your only augment slot. There's also the fact that equipping a new augment destroys your old one. Some augments could be useful in specific situations, such as Fire Resist when exploring a Volcanic planet, but they're not worth sacrificing your Damage III augment for, especially considering how rare augments are.note Poison Resist manages to be Not Completely Useless because it provides full immunity to poison and toxic rain, while Fire Resist doesn't make you immune to lava or meteor storms. Because of this, it's generally worth getting a Poison Resist augment for exploring Toxic planets, even if it means crafting a spare EPP for it. The same is true for collars, which are basically augments for pets. Like augments, they are very rare, only one can be applied per pet and applying a new collar overwrites the old one. The only useful ones are Healing and Oblivious note for attaching to a Lumoth in order to use it as a light source, and possibly Damage if you have some other method of healing your pet. | |

Elemental Weapon: Some randomly-generated melee weapons can be enhanced with either poison, fire, electricity, or ice. Poison and fire inflict their respective status effect on enemies to sap their health for several seconds after a hit, electricity adds a projectile attack in the form of a short-ranged pulse of electricity that damage other enemy units nearby rather than the one who was struck, and ice slows down the affected baddie. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: Zigzagged: in any given town from a race different to you, one third of its people will be positively curious about your visit, another third will mock you and your species, and the rest will just talk about something else. In the backstory, there are mentions of repeated wars between the Florans and the Hylotl, which has led to great animosity between their species. In game, the two races have universally disparaging comments for each other, an occasionally found piece of Floran decor is spike-mounted Hylotl skulls, and the Hylotl Impervium weapons are named "Stemcutter", "Rootcutter", "Plantpounder", "Vinehacker", etc. Glitch villagers also tend to not care for Hylotls. While they're not as hostile to Hylotls as Florans can be, they are very mistrusting of them and tend love to make fun of them. Before the backstory overhaul in version 1.0, the USCM was the main governing body of humans (officially, at least) and had a VERY noticeable distrust of (and disdain for) every other race. The new Earth faction, the Terrene Protectorate, is much more inclusive and much less militaristic. Occasus fulfills the human supremacist role after they were added in version 1.0. To the point that they want to kill all non-human life in the universe. | |

Disc-One Nuke | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d | comment |
Disc-One Nuke: Finding or buying a gun in the very early game. Guns give players reach and while melee weapons generally do much more damage (at least, until another gun is found) they don't require engaging in a melee, allowing players to save on healing items. Finding a Legendary unique weapon, especially a sword such as the Time Pierce or Asuterosaberu DX, which often do considerably more damage than randomly-generated or crafted swords at the same level. There is a chance to find powerful randomly generated weapons dropped by boss monsters that may allow the player to simply breeze through the first sector. Changes made to the universe with one character are carried over when you start a new game with a new character. So it's possible to leave some advanced-level items on a planet with the strong character and pick them up with the new character. The wood-and-cobblestone Hunting Spears that you can craft at the first-tier crafting table. They're cheap to produce in bulk, they do more damage per each one thrown than most weapons in the early game, and their damage increases as you progress through the armor tiers. They're even effective against bosses! Plus, each monster killed with a Hunting Spear has a higher chance of dropping meat that you can cook and eat to heal yourself. During the beta, while not exactly the best of ideas, there was nothing outright stopping the player from heading to 'mid-to-end-game' planets first and foremost. With enough luck and dodging skills, it was possible for players to get weapons and armor way above what they should be able to have at that point. | |

Big Brother Is Watching | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_5da3f522 | comment |
Big Brother Is Watching: The Apex suffer from a very advanced case of this. The player character, should he or she be an Apex, is a member of the rebellion who escaped after the Miniknog, the Apex's oppressive government, crushed it. As you can imagine given the game's general tone, it is lampshaded ruthlessly; there are even posters featuring a character dubbed Big Ape, who is said to be all-seeing and who commands those who gaze upon his visage to OBEY. None of the player characters are impressed, least of all Florans, who comment that they have no plans to obey their dinner. Apex dungeons have posters that read, "Big Ape is All Seeing". Apex in Apex settlements will talk about hidden cameras, spies, and other activity alluding to the big brother nature of the Mini Knog government. The reason why Big Ape is able to do all this? He's a Brain Uploaded Sinister Surveillance AI. | |

Planet of Hats | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_67f26dcc | comment |
Planet of Hats: Each race as at least two components to their hats. Florans have the savage and plant-life hat. They are both as lethal and cruel, even to each other, as they can be, as well as being meat eating plants, and they are a plant race. Humans currently are a race without a home planet much like humans in Titan A.E.. Something special for the humans is a possibility in the future. Glitch have the oldest theme, being stuck in the past due to an issue with programming (hence their name), and are still in the time of swords and farming. Despite being robots and stuck in the past, they are actually one of the most friendly races to find on a planet, and seem good natured despite their issues. Apex are ape-men who seem to follow the government strongly. They are a blend of Nineteen Eighty-Four and Planet of the Apes. Their furniture tends to be more centered around the 70s and their "music" seems to indicate that they have regained some bestial instincts despite remaining intelligent. Hylotl are fish people who appear to be the most modern. Despite that, they have a heavy Asian influence in their clothing and ships. It's noted in lore that Hylotl are the most peaceful of the races, to the point of getting mockery from time to time. They also value beauty, which is more of an Informed Ability at the moment due to there being so few items that show that. Avians are a strongly religious race with a heavy Mayincatec aesthetic. Avians value piety to their god, Kluex, above all else, and those who renounce their faith are summarily excommunicated. Novakids are Space Westerners with bodies composed of energy. They are amongst the oldest races in existence, but their short-term memories also makes them the most technologically stunted and does not help in relations with other races. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: The Broken Broadsword is the very first weapon you receive. It's entirely likely you sold it the moment you got a better weapon. If so, you just threw away any chance of getting the Protector's Broadsword, one of the most powerful melee weapons in the game. The game in no way indicates that it's worth keeping, other than a vague description that states "A very nice sword in very poor condition". The game is still perfectly playable without it, but you'll still be kicking yourself in the foot for not hanging on to it. The Ancient Alphabet codex is tauntingly available in the Treasured Trophies shop, but to get it you need to trade two halves of a "translation wheel", the collection of which is a fairly opaque process. They're stored in chests in the Erchius Mining Facility and Miniknog Stronghold missions. To access them, you first must locate the hidden doors they're locked behind, and then you must track down the two hidden triggers to open the doors. Nothing in the game suggests that you need to search those specific missions, nor which of the many, many incidental switches, consoles, and valves scattered around those missions are the triggers that open the doors. You just have to scour every corner of every mission to see if there is a door, and then painstakingly flip every switch and activate every console and then go back to the door to see if one of the lights has lit up. | |

Commonplace Rare: Iron is virtually nonexistent in the endgame planets, where it's several times less frequent than gold. Leather is a surprisingly infrequent drop when you consider every animal should be skinnable. The game can churn out Mix-and-Match Critters for every planet, but bog-standard cats and dogs are rare enough that the former is only found in a secret area in the Erchius Mining Facility mission while the latter is an extremely rare spawn outside of the Outpost. On of the rarest crops and ingredient to the highest tier foods are chilli peppers, which are found growing on burnt-out husks of planets that shouldn't logically have any plants growing on them. | |

Body Armor as Hit Points | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_7e8a8eac | comment |
Body Armor as Hit Points: In addition to providing overall damage reduction, suits of armor also provide an increase in total health, improving survivability in both directions. This is also how the Energy meter for Mechs functions when taking hits; once a Mech is out of energy, it's rendered useless until it recharges. Damage from enemies will drain the energy reserves, and more advanced Mechs have greater energy capacity. | |

| Starbound (Video Game) / int_7f15b05c | comment |
Rainbow Pimp Gear: Optional. Each character has eight equipment slots for armor: four for the armor to actually use and get stats from, and another four for the armor to display, so you mix and match gear to play it straight, or dye them so they at least are color-coordinated. There are certain cosmetic items that are chromatic and sparkle when you run with them. So it is played straight. The problem is finding them... | |

Spikes of Doom: Several variants. Most of them damage you on contact. Wooden Spikes, however, are a One-Hit Kill on anyone who touches them. For a more decorative variant, Florans enjoy crafting furniture out of the bones of their prey, giving it a very spiky appearance. | |

Asteroid Miners | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_83364794 | comment |
Asteroid Miners: You can do this by either getting above the atmospheres of a normal planet or by visiting an asteroid belt that can spawn randomly in any star system. It's easy to see the ores and you don't have to dig through dirt and stone to move anywhere, but there's no oxygen and navigation is tricky- planet-based asteroids still have the planet's gravity and belts have zero gravity (and require a mech to deploy to in the first place). Mechs come by default with a mining drill arm specifically designed for doing this. | |

The Ruin, seen in the intro destroying Earth, which was barely sealed away aeons ago and serves as the Final Boss. Tentacles. Lots of tentacles. And it's the size of a planet. | |

Medieval Stasis | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_8f37b | comment |
Medieval Stasis: The Glitch were originally built to progress as a society, developing more and more advanced technology while remaining unaware of their nature as technological constructs. A flaw or literal glitch in the system left the Glitch stuck in the medieval period. In an interesting twist, those simulations which had progressed past the medieval era eventually wound up destroying themselves when their technological progress outstripped their social progress. The Glitch survive because they are incapable of advancing further naturally. Any Glitch that tries to progress the race's technology level is immediately hunted down and executed for "heresy". | |

Precursors: Seems to be of the neglectful variety, having left behind lots of strange things like dimensional gateways and at least one eldritch abomination. They also technologically uplifted the Avians without bothering to uplift them socially (resulting in a sacrifice-happy theocracy with spaceships and guns) and seeded countless artificial starter civilizations across the galaxy, almost all of which destroyed themselves when they became powerful enough to do so (The only exception, The Glitch, unintentionally avoided this thanks to an accidental programming error that trapped them in Medieval Stasis). | |

Artificial Stupidity | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_940a5958 | comment |
Artificial Stupidity: During the game's beta phase, the game's AI concerning critters and NPCs (especially the latter) was pretty lacking. Most NPCs didn't know how to retreat, rushing headlong into a situation that has gotten them killed by the dozen. NPCs often got lost in or outside of their own homes. This was mostly fixed once the game left Early Access. In the release version but patched out later: If you count the AI that places landmarks like houses and such, that one's also a little stupid every now and then. A good part of the time, NPCs can't get home because it's flat out impossible without digging, techs or a grappling hook, as the generator placed it on some chunk of rock suspended on background terrain on top of a mountain, or buried it into a hole so far inside the ground it looks more like a bomb shelter than a house. The idiocy part comes when you consider it's the NPCs that are supposed to be placing these houses, so you just can't help but wonder what kind of moron would build it that way. In-Universe multiple times: prior to the the first boss fight, your companion A.I. SAIL will warn you of increasing levels of Erchius radiationnote It's speculated that this radiation caused the mutations in the miners, but this is later revealed to have involved the boss of the mission. Exposure to Erchius (even bathing yourself in it) has no direct ill effects in-game, suggesting it's actually harmless. and your "peril level" (in morts). The quest-giver, Esther, will chime in to politely shut it up. The Glitch themselves. Their whole existence stems from a programming bug, restricting them to their Medieval Stasis, and the self-aware Glitch are only such because of *another* bug (or, possibly, they're the only ones functioning correctly- it's not clear). Regular Glitch do seem to suffer from inbuilt stupidity and become extremely superstitious whenever their simulation is threatened, and all Glitch have hard-wired blind spots preventing them from fully functioning like the robots they are (they can't heal properly without being treated like organic patients, for instance). | |

Death Is Not Permanent | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_964c8ef4 | comment |
Death Is Not Permanent: Barring the permadeath option, each race has its own method of respawning after death. Humans are cloned in a machine that builds their skeleton, grows muscles and organs, then overlays skin and hair. Apex are cloned in a similar manner to humans, except they're cloned in a capsule full of liquid and injected with the serum that turns them into super-intelligent ape-men. Avians are hatched from a new egg as a chick, then rapidly aged to maturity. Hylotls, similar to Avians, are hatched as tadpoles, then aged up to maturity. Florans are grown from a seed, with their new body hatching from a new plant. Glitch are simply rebuilt. Novakids are reformed from their gasses—in the form of a star quickly accelerating through its life cycle, until it explodes in a nova to reform the Novakid. | |

Merchant City | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_98c2d5b8 | comment |
Merchant City: Something of a downplayed example with the various Avian Grounded villages (the ones where the locals don't really pay much attention to religious piety) - while other NPC villages may have at most one merchant to buy and sell stuff from, these villages may have up to twenty. Players can get the sense of being in the middle of a busy marketplace when all of them say their "Please buy my stuff!" quotes as they approach. It's downplayed in the sense that these merchants' selection of goods are varied but generally don't have anything particularly rare, though you can help expand their stores through quests. | |

It is possible, for example, to come across a planet extremely mutated due to the insanely high levels of radiation, which are extremely weakening: without appropriate protection you will have your max HP reduced by 85% immediately after beaming down. Or perhaps you're digging downwards and suddenly find that the rocks you were mining were suddenly gone and now you're digging through chunks of flesh. Midnight biomes are perhaps the best example: no matter how close they are to their star, they will perpetually be submerged in night, even if the star shines up high, with permanent duststorms as the only thing resembling a weather. What's more, they are full of humanoid, pitch-black shadows which appear to be sentient (they build shrines, at least), but will not react to whatever the player does, and will instead watch, their bright green eyes their only defining feature. The background of these planets also contributes to the mood, and can best be described as a collection of differently shaped spikes stacked over each other. | |

Kill It with Fire: Florans are not fond of fire at all. Particularly evident when inspecting any fire item while playing as a Floran, as the player will often respond with fear or uneasiness. | |

Cloud Cuckoo Lander: The Novakids tend to have short attention spans (hence their stunted technological development) and a lack of tact when dealing with other races (hence their tense relationships with other races). One was even said to casually ask an Avian priest if Kluex is real. Florans as well, in their psychopathic madness, manage to find some lesser kinds of oddity. Like misreading absolutely every sign they find to mean the opposite of what it actually reads, or in the PC's case, picking a fight with a robotic crafting table's arms. | |

Video-Game Flamethrowers Suck | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_a3e24415 | comment |
Videogame Flamethrowers Suck: While the Flamethrower is potent if you get it early, it's only a tier 2 weapon, so it will be decisively outclassed by the time you reach Durasteel level. This is an artifact of the Flamethrower being a unique weapon, meaning it's stuck at Tier 2 and its stats are always the same low values every time you find it. In previous versions, "flamethrower" was a weapon class of its own, and flamethrowers could be just as strong (or weak) as any other randomly-generated weapon. | |

Unusable Enemy Equipment: Two sentient races, the Agarans who are mushroom people and the Colorfuls who look like rabbit ninjas, are not playable.

The boss Asra Nox uses advanced technology to move around during the battle. The player has access to similar technology which can be upgraded, but nothing quite as powerful as what Asra Nox uses. | |

Instant Awesome: Just Add Mecha!: Each race has its own mech that can be piloted once the tech for them is found and equipped. As of Beta v. Furious Koala, human and Glitch mechs have been implemented. The mech system has been revamped in 1.3. Once players fix their ship, they can complete a simple quest that grants them their very own customizable mech. Mechs are mainly used in space encounters (also new to 1.3), but they can also be deployed on planets for some extra firepower. | |

Apocalyptic Log: The last transmission that came from Earth was an SOS that they were under attack by a mysterious destructive force, and that escape ships are barely able to make it off the planet. You find a codex in the Ceremonial Hunting Caverns, written by a former resident of the planet... before the Florans came and killed everyone. The messages you find in the Erchius Mining Facility, as the workers tried to request aid against the monsters from their superiors... who just locked down the facility and wrote it off as a lost cause. | |

The backstory was overhauled, both to make room for the main storyline and to remove various hanging plot threads (i.e. Greenfingers experiments). All races now start as new members of the Terrene Protectorate just before the destruction of the Earth, as opposed to pre-1.0 where each selected race would have a different backstory and Earth had already been destroyed. | |

Noodle Implements: The Torture Device is... Some kind of fountain thing. Water Torture exists, yes, but we never know how it works (and the description tells us we don't want to), but we do find out that, apparently, Glitch find it particularly unpleasant, the Florans themselves find the thing scary, and that it doesn't work on Hylotl. | |

Run or Die | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_b6060b7 | comment |
Run or Die: At the end of the Floran Party mission, there's a boss Floran who takes extremely little damage from all weapons and wields a very painful Bonehammer. You're supposed to flee from him until you can get to the transmitter at the end, then get out of there. You can, however, whittle his health down and get a unique cosmetic item for beating him. | |

Sentry Gun: Can be built and placed, and will attack enemies. They have a limited amount of energy and will deactivate when they run out, but the player can interact with them to replenish it. An upcoming update will allow players to place their own guns into the sentries, allowing them to use those guns' projectiles. | |

Sadistic Choice: Upon entering a challenge portal, the player might be presented with a single small room containing a bunny and a kitten on platforms suspended over lava, each with a corresponding loot chest containing a hat resembling that animal. No points for guessing what happens to the platform you didn't pick. It's possible to complete the room without melting any animals, by using the Relocator to pick up the bunny and/or catching the kitten in a Capture Pod... but you still only get one hat. | |

Reaching the end pits you against a procedurally generated boss, that depending on the moves it has, can either be an Anti-Climax Boss or a truly vicious killing machine that utterly eclipses the danger of The Ruin itself. | |

Womb Level: The "Tentacle" biome on The Ruin. The outer layer is composed of sludge and tentacle blocks, trees are replaced by tentacles, and burrowing inside them you can find clusters of nerves, brain tissue and pools of poison. Flesh Biomes. The "ground" is made of either flesh or bones. Curiously averted with the rather benign Eyepatch minibiomes. Sure, the trees have enormous eyeballs and are made of some kind of fleshy fiber, but the ground is regular dirt and the water is perfectly ordinary. The local fruit, Oculemons, are delicious, if a bit unsettling. | |

Continuing is Painful: When you die in Casual, you lose 10% of your pixels (the game currency). You can convert raw ores into Pixels through the Refinery, allowing an easy and efficient means of accumulating more. Normal, on the other hand, makes you drop almost everything you're carrying on top of the pixels (similar to Minecraft). The game is kind enough to leave your equipped weapons and armor intact, as well as make your dropped belongings player-persistent when the scenario happens, so there's no rush to getting your stuff back as long as you don't save and quit. | |

Their default clothing resembles Japanese clothing, and their spaceship seems to take off both the Chinese koi and Japanese dragon. The ship's default interior has strong resemblances to eastern housing as well, complete with lanterns. Hylotl cities mostly take after modern Japanese culture, featuring advertisements for popular cartoons, childrens toys and plushies, night clubs, and living areas that are fairly small for their size. | |

With This Herring: At the beginning of the game, you're supplied with only a matter manipulator, a flashlight, 10 torches, a few cans of food, a broken two-handed broadsword, and the meager clothes you're currently wearingnote If you play the tutorial, you can add a couple doses of healing herbs and bandages if you check the last cargo box before jumping onto your ship. The matter manipulator is slower at mining than a stone pickaxe, the flashlight only illuminates areas at a small angle (unlike the torches and almost all other light sources), and the broadsword should immediately be replaced with a hunting knife once you have the iron to craft it. | |

Hylotl are fish people who appear to be the most modern. Despite that, they have a heavy Asian influence in their clothing and ships. It's noted in lore that Hylotl are the most peaceful of the races, to the point of getting mockery from time to time. They also value beauty, which is more of an Informed Ability at the moment due to there being so few items that show that. | |

Patchwork Map | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_d24b61a8 | comment |
Patchwork Map: Transitions between primary and sub-biomes are quite sudden, and some choices are strange. For instance, it's rare but possible to find a Garden biome in the midst of a perpetually-blackened Midnight planet. | |

| Starbound (Video Game) / int_d291ea97 | comment |
No Campaign for the Wicked: Those who explore the planets are likely to eventually find an intelligent race of mushroom people who can occasionally be found living in mushroom villages. The developers suggest that these are in fact The Corruption and quite wholeheartedly wicked, so they're not playable. At least, not officially. | |

Curiously averted with the rather benign Eyepatch minibiomes. Sure, the trees have enormous eyeballs and are made of some kind of fleshy fiber, but the ground is regular dirt and the water is perfectly ordinary. The local fruit, Oculemons, are delicious, if a bit unsettling. | |

Just a Stupid Accent | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_db1ab4b1 | comment |
Just a Stupid Accent: There's a high-end sword whose name appears to have been transcribed from Japanese... but it's actually the English words "astro saber" transliterated to Japanese and right back again. ...Or rather, an egregiously bad attempt at such. The effect it intends to evoke is that, essentially, Japanese phonology is more restrictive than English, requiring all syllables to (for our purposes) consist of only a consonant followed by a vowel, so English words often need extra vowels when loaned into Japanese. However, this extra vowel is Almost Alwaysâ„¢ï¸� U, with O and I cropping up circumstantially (for effects or lack thereof on the consonant), and in particular E is right out. Furthermore, the process tends to respect pronunciation over spelling, so our Great Vowel Shift abominations don't come out the other side, and a coda R/rhoticized vowel usually (not always) gets rendered as additional vowel length or a straight up A. Altogether, the proper result should be アストãƒã‚»ã‚¤ãƒ�ー "asutoroseibaa". (It's notoriously hard to predict what if anything is the intended English spelling from something a Japanese author clearly meant to be non-Japanese, but in this hypothetical case with アステãƒã‚µãƒ™ãƒ« the best bet would be something along the lines of "astero-subbelle".) | |

Ridiculously Human Robots: The Glitch. This borders on exaggeration - the Glitch need to breathe, sleep, eat and drink, can become poisoned, have two different genders, reproduce sort-of-sexually, can become sick, can become wounded, and patch up their "wounds" with bandages. This is actually justified in-game, though: The Glitch were created as part of a social experiment, and since their long-extinct creators wanted to observe how societies develop over time, the Glitch were designed so that their experiences in life would resemble that of organic creatures as closely as possible. Only a handful of Glitch, including the player character (if you choose Glitch as race), are actually self-aware and even realize they are robots. | |

Neglectful Precursors: The Glitch are a remnant of an experiment that made artificial societies. All the other simulated civilizations developed advanced technology which inevitably led to them wiping themselves out. The Glitch survived because they developed a glitch that trapped them in Medieval Stasis. The Avians recived advanced tech to save them from dying out but they did not get any help to advance their society. The result is a space faring race ruled by their priest cast who demands lots of blood sacrifices. | |

Infinite Flashlight | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_f2407aff | comment |
Infinite Flashlight: Each starter kit for characters has one. Due to the way lighting works, they are one of the only ways for a character to light up the surrounding area without placing any item. Due to the way the game works, flashlights can be dual-wielded, however this has little benefit except intensifying the light. Later, the Matter Manipulator is upgraded with a Scan Mode that also includes a flashlight which doesn't take up a hand or inventory space, but the trade-off here is that you can't use a weapon while holding the Manipulator. The player can craft a lantern on a stick that provides a moderate amount of light surrounding them and freeing up your hands to do something else as this counts as a clothing item. Later this lantern can be upgraded to a halogen pack that is much brighter, then into a xenon pack that is even brighter. The Light Augment for the Environmental Protection Pack creates a very nice glow around the player. | |

Brain in a Jar | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_f3fac450 | comment |
Brain in a Jar: Some of the glitch have what look like brains in jars as part of their heads. A literal example is a decoration that can be found in Apex-related labs. | |

| Starbound (Video Game) / int_f5a22215 | comment |
Ambidextrous Sprite: Asymmetrical clothing is mirrored, depending on which direction the player is facing. Weapons and tools which are consistently held in the correct hands regardless of which side you face. A 2-handed weapon will always be in your left hand. | |

Science Is Bad | |
| Starbound (Video Game) / int_f68664dc | comment |
Science Is Bad: Any Glitch who, through another glitch, becomes aware of their backwards technology will invariably start to invent more advanced technology. This is frowned upon by Glitch society. | |

| Starbound (Video Game) / int_f8cddfb2 | comment |
Laser Blade: The Violium Broadsword and Shortsword are straight examples. The Solus Katana and Protector's Broadsword sometimes appear to be Laser Blades, but they have mundane blades beneath the glowy exteriors. | |

This Is a Drill: You can't craft them right from the beginning, but they take the place of pickaxes later in the game. The 1.3 update added customizable mechs, which can be equipped with a drill arm. | |

| Starbound (Video Game) / int_fc151e9d | comment |
Department of Redundancy Department: Beakseed is a fruit in the game. To grow Beakseed crops, you need Beakseed Seeds. Some of the randomly generated weapon names can be this. For example, the Mushroom Sword weapon can end up with the name "Mushroom Mushroom", and the Bone Sword can be called the "Horror Horror". | |

Ridiculously Cute Critter: Several randomly-generated aliens may sport a really adorable face and small body. Still doesn't mean that they aren't aggressive, though. The Novakid pet is a Snugget◊, which is a really adorable quadruped made of star energy like the Novakids themselves. | |

Crisis of Faith: Some Avians are banished for defying their god's demands for sacrifices. In specific Avian Lore there is the saga of one who was at first loyal, but after marrying an atheist and watching his brother nearly die in the attempt to ascend he lost his faith. | |

Was Once a Man: The pink fleshy aliens in the Erchius Mining Facility distress mission. After facing a number of these, you eventually encounter miners undergoing transformation into one of these horrors. One of the surviving uninfected miners even mentions that the pink things look like people. It turns out that they were turned into these things by the area's boss. | |
