Starbound: Leaving Orbit - 5 - Starter base, crafting stations, mud? Starbound gameplay.

Today, we build ourselves a small home away from home just outside of the mine. The goal is simple: create a safe haven with all of our crafting stations, a small farm, and the Human Banner which will allow us to teleport directly to our base from our ship anytime we like. Sounds simple enough, right?

Wrong.

It turns out that you need mud to build a primitive furnace. You need a primitive furnace to smelt your ores into metal bars. You need metal bars to create, well, everything else. Now, if I could only find the 4 pieces of mud I need for this blasted furnace!

Wow. What a different experience this has been already. With your tips and tricks and the knowledge I've gained in the first 3 episodes, I can already tell this new character is going to be a lot more enjoyable to play. And hopefully, it will be even more enjoyable to watch!

Starbound has now officially left early access and is now a full-fledged release and I am excited to show off some gameplay. Starbound is a true Early Access success story - the road may have been long, windy, and bumpy, but Chucklefish Games has finally delivered the highly anticipated game that we have waited on for years.

I have never played Starbound before. Expect the early gameplay to be that of a true beginner. I have to learn the controls, the mechanics, the survival aspects, everything! I will not be consulting the Starbound Wiki, I will rely on all of you and my own experience to learn the many tips and tricks to refine my gameplay over time. I'm excited.

Don't expect this to be a guide or an expert walkthrough. Expect me to struggle, die, and have a load of fun doing it. Maybe we can set up some multiplayer sometime soon, although I have no idea how that works...

For anyone wondering, this episode is gameplay of Starbound: Leaving Orbit version 1.03.
