The stars are calling louder than ever. In Episode 3, we expand our humble beginnings into a fully operational outpost, complete with a teleportation module, base power grid, and the critical tech to finally leave the planet behind. But even as we rise, whispers from the crimson echoes grow stranger—and more personal. We walk through every foundational step: crafting carbon nanotubes, unlocking key base technologies like electric wiring and biofuel reactors, and learning how to build while escaping the wrath of a planetary firestorm. With the terrain manipulator in full use, we mine copper, build stone-walled shelters, and strategically relocate structures for maximum efficiency and protection. But the true turning point comes when we reach our first space station. There, we decipher an encrypted signal hinting at a lost traveler, we sell off inventory to reach over 180,000 units, and begin learning alien languages word by word—“ehu,” “trade,” and more. We receive our first mysterious message from the entity known only as “16,” who speaks through another lifeform in an unsettling flash of red light: “Traveler finds their wings. Fly to us and claim your place among the stars.” With our base now linked via teleport, and our ship fueled for launch, the next chapter beckons us into deeper mystery—and into space.
