Occupy Moon

Build a base on the moon. You will find ores, but will you be able to produce organics?

Greenhouse

Warning

Development is far from finished, but you should be able to have a good time for a few hours!

Updates 0.2 -> 0.3

So many small changes, thanks to the comments of the 2022 GameJam participants!

  • Auto-equip spacesuit at the start of the game
  • Spacesuit can be refilled by holding an air bottle in your hand and use it
  • This means you don´t need an inventory mod as long as your spacesuit doesn´t break.
  • Moon gravity fixed
  • Supply rocket accesible via door, contains air!
  • ChemSampler shows the items needed for the next mission
  • Cleaned up mods folders, renamed moonrealm nodes and items to omg_moonrealm. Automatically replace some items in the world and in chests. If I missed something, please let me know or have the items in the inventory when re-joining a server.
  • Spawn more ores for technic.
  • Probably more, I don´t really remember...

Updates 0.3 -> 0.4

  • Added rocket animation, rocket only 'lands' when there is space.
  • Added some ingame information for the player on how to survive on the moon. Find it in your inventory.

Plans for 0.5

  • Energy: using only lv solar arrays is hard.
  • Somehow generate sulfur, granite, marble, desert stone in worldgen or find suitable recipe replacements.

How to play

Before starting a world, enable your favorite inventory with 3d_armor support! Only then you can wear your spacesuit!

Get started

You start with a landing site marker for a supply rocket. Place it on a free spot, step back and wait for max. 30 seconds for the rocket to arrive. Apart from other things, you will find a Chemicals Sampler which you will need to unlock more supplies. Your task is to show that you can produce food and resources on the moon!

  • Build a sealed greenhouse.
  • Release the air inside.
  • Get some moon stone, turn it into gravel.
  • Get some moon dust and take some wheat from your supplies.
  • Make soil from these three ingredients! Don´t place it outside, though...
  • Find some ice as water source.
  • Plant your first crops!

Another word of warning

You better don´t extend your greenhouse from within, build a second or a third one. The vacuum mod might ruin you otherwise... Dried shrubs

Get more supplies

Those guys on earth want you to first provide 12 wheat. Stuff it into the Chemicals Sampler and expect some supplies in exchange. Next, is to show that you can expand. Insert 20 dirt and 2 white wool for the next supplies.
