Hitting a wall

Hi there! I'm playing this for the first time, solo, and for the most part really enjoying it. I have got to the point where I can open a portal to explore other wrecks, and I'm waiting to hit the animals milestone. It feels like I've run out of things to do, and the animals milestone is taking forever to get to. I'm only at about 40%. I spent my whole play session last night just sending out more rockets to speed it up, but it seems like it only helps a little.

Is this basically the last stage? Is there something I'm missing? Does this stage just take extra long? I feel like I'm just killing time waiting for the next stage, and I'm not sure how to speed it up. I've installed new drills, heaters, trees, etc, but it seems to only help a tiny bit.

What am I missing?

Edit: Not sure why asking a question is getting me downvoted, but whatever.

I've invested in fuses/boosters, rockets, etc. for my last several playthoughs. At this point I'm just repeating the same tasks with no new benifit or content. Is this the last push of the game? Is the rest of the game a slog like this? I enjoyed it up to this point, but by now I'm just bored.

New stupid time consuming project.

OK I got my trade rocket time down to 3 seconds so now I present an underground living compartment with dome to play the floor is larvae. I hadn't fully realised just how many lockers of Larvae it would take to make the floor look evn semi carpetted witih these things. But the wriggly floor has been all worthwhile.

Expectation vs reality

Hi there,

So I just recently started to play this game with a friend of mine, just to add context we are massive FPS players, COD, Arc Raiders, Halo etc.

We went blind into this game, expecting it to be a day fly. We started at 10:00 in the evening on Saturday and we stopped around 05:30 in the morning.

And I’m a 35 year old guy and I must say I have not enjoyed myself with a game like this in years!

We are now both diving into this game this upcoming weekend to progress.

Amazing game, wish the visuals would be a little bit better and also more places to go to but overal enjoying it allot.

Tips please

New player.

I already restarted once because I goofy around exploring and used up all my food, I assumed I would have food growers early, oops I used up all my food and had no more.

So now this time, still early in game this time, it says I need more oxygen in order to get growers, I feel like once I have food I can chill and just enjoy the game.

How on earth can I get that oxygen up?

Any tips welcome!! Please!!

A Farewell to Selenea

I started on this moon, and it's been a lot of fun, but now i've set my eyes on the new planets!

I'm particularly proud of my base (on a cliff across the gorge near the second satellite dish) which includes a funky aquarium setup, Tier 2 storage all organized for my ores, a cozy bedroom, and a kind of shoddy power station with like 3 fusion generators and nothing else haha

I'll be pleased to not have a 'twiddling thumbs waiting for pressure' cinch though, not having all the resources lead to a few of those early on. Zeolite and the green quartz remain the most exclusive resources.

I don't own Humble or Toxic so i'll be heading to Prime.
