History VideoGame / PlanetExplorers

* HereWeGoAgain: Story Mode begins with the player's lifeboat crash-landing on the Galileo continent. How does the story end? [[spoiler: With the [=McTalk=] crash-landing on the Newton continent.]]

* PlayerPunch: Having to break the news of [[spoiler: Rol's death]] to Ava and Peter after having [[spoiler: her]] tag along on so many quests can really hurt.

* SyntheticPlague: In Story Mode, a virus engineered decades ago by [[spoiler: the Paja civilisation]] was responsible for [[spoiler: crippling both the Pujans [[HoistByHisOwnPetard and the Pajans]]]], as well as causing the player's colony a lot of strife.

The game is set on the planet Maria, an earth-like planet in the Epsilon Indi system. In Story Mode, the player takes the role of a stranded colonist who has been thrown in at the deep end when their starship was struck by a mysterious object, forcing the crew to abandon ship and make a rather "dramatic" landing in the escape shuttles. A rich storyline then unfolds, featuring political intrigue, conflict between the people of Earth and Mars, and more conflict with Maria's aggressive sentient natives.

* TheGreatWall: The [[spoiler: Pujan city]] in Story Mode is protected by the Wall of Sorrows, a colossal stone edifice as long and nearly as tall as the nearby mountain range.

* MagicTool: The Replicator. It is able to craft a huge variety of items, and anything it can't craft can be made with the Industrial Replicator.

* SyntheticPlague: In Story Mode, a virus engineered by [[spoiler: aliens from outside the Epsilon Indi system]] was responsible for [[spoiler: crippling the Puja and Paja]], as well as causing the player's colony a lot of strife.

''Planet Explorers'', by Pathea Games, is a sci-fi voxel-based SurvivalSandbox game with RPG elements, featuring a lengthy storyline and a procedurally generated adventure mode. The game allows players to create custom vehicles, weapons, tools, armour, turrets, robots and static ornaments and use them in-game, and even use a separate tool to [[LevelEditor create their own planets]] with custom quests and environments. Online multiplayer was available until the developers [[EpicFail lost their only copy of the netcode]].

* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Vera Novikova, Moric Gahn, Lao Lei and Ataro Baatar]] succumb to ThePlague during Story Mode.

* SettlingTheFrontier: The player and friends' original goal in Story Mode, played straight in Adventure Mode.

* SyntheticPlague: In Story Mode, a virus engineered by aliens [[spoiler: from outside the Epsilon Indi system]] was responsible for [[spoiler: crippling the Puja and Paja]], as well as causing the player's colony a lot of strife.

* BoyishShortHair: Ava Azniv and Aida Acosta both have short hair and the matching bolshy personality. Gerdy Hooke and Pleiades Zheng as well, to a lesser degree. Maybe you need a name with AddedAlliterativeAppeal for the full effect.

* KilledOffForReal: During Story Mode, [[spoiler: Vera Novikova]] succumbs to ThePlague.

* SyntheticPlague: A virus engineered by [[spoiler: the ancient Paja civilisation]] causes some strife in the campaign.

The game allows players to create custom vehicles, weapons, tools and static objects and use them in-game, and a recent update has added a fully-functional [[LevelEditor world editor]]. Online multiplayer is also available.

* TwentyFourHourArmor: Players can wear armour constantly, even while sleeping on a wooden bed out in the cold, mining deep underground or trekking through the blazing-hot desert. It lowers your maximum comfort stat, though.

* HairRaisingHare: Lepus Marihares. They are the weakest predators on Maria, but still fierce enough to pose a challenge.
* {{Hammerspace}}: A player's inventory has room for hundreds of items, and could concievably hold ''an entire fleet of flat-packed airships'', ready to be deployed at a moment's notice.

* HollywoodDarkness: Averted. At night, it gets too dark to do anything without a source of light.

** A caveat: the game has separate men's and women's armour. These have the same stats, although some sets look [[{{Stripperiffic}} significantly different]] depending on what sex they're made for.

* SprintMeter: A stamina metre limits the player's running, jumping and whatnot. Mining and logging also drain the stamina metre, but the player can keep doing these activities at a reduced pace.

* XMeetsY: ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' meets ''Franchise/StarTrek'' meets ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}''.

* TwentyFourHourArmor: Players can wear armour permanently, even while sleeping on a wooden bed out in the cold, and seem to suffer no ill-effects whatsoever.
