Beyond These Stars Wiki

Begin with the 30 Peeps arriving aboard the Home Spaceship and establish your first settlement near the existing water and breathable forest.

Connect buildings with roads, gather essential construction resources, and ensure housing is within reach of available workplaces.

Establish food and drinking-water supplies so Peeps can restore Energy and Happiness between work shifts.

Develop production chains while managing Power, storage capacity, and useful by-products such as Wood Waste and Soot.

Unlock terraforming technologies, restore forests, expand breathable land, and maintain Kewa's health before expanding further.

Progress through technology prerequisites, earn Perk Points, and prepare for exploration and settlement beyond Kewa.

Restore Kewa's biome by planting trees, extending waterways, and reducing pollution around settlements.

Monitor Kewa's Health and Happiness indicators through the Galaxy Map and watch for deteriorating biome conditions.

Avoid prolonged exposure to excessively hot regions, as overheating can force Kewa to travel elsewhere to cool down.

Choose supportive dialogue responses when communicating with Kewa, since conversation choices can influence their happiness.

Improve Kewa's happiness to encourage beneficial Kewa Fruit Trees, while preventing the appearance of harmful Thorny Stems.

Account for Kewa's travel Energy and feeding needs, including stops at debris fields or asteroid belts that can threaten settlement buildings.

Unlock Landscaping through the technology system and use Landscaper workers to raise or lower terrain.

Collect Debris when lowering terrain and reuse it when raising land to create space for new construction.

Create waterways that reach previously dry areas, improving vegetation conditions and supporting settlement expansion.

Produce Compost using a Compost Heap and apply it to transform bare ground into green tiles suitable for farming and vegetation.

Produce Saplings using Compost and plant forests to expand breathable atmosphere while helping absorb nearby pollution.

Prevent high pollution from developing into Toxic Areas. Use Cleaners or Toxic Tile Scrapers where necessary and remember that forests can absorb pollution within four tiles.

Unlock the ability to travel with Kewa and access the Galaxy Map to identify stars and new destinations.

Use a Scout Ship to investigate celestial objects and identify planets suitable for settlement.

Explore habitable planets for resources unavailable or scarce on Kewa, including materials such as Berries, Wheat, and Shells.

Deploy a Settlement Ship to establish a new outpost. Construct a Space Port before expecting the landed Settlement Ship to depart again.

Use Trade Ships to transfer resources between Space Ports, choosing manual shipping for specific deliveries or automated shipping for continuing supply.

Transport valuable planetary resources back to Kewa and account for local temperature, resource limitations, and Kewa's willingness to remain in a system.

Provide housing within range of workplaces and ensure that essential buildings have enough workers to operate.

Maintain food and drink supplies so Peeps can recover Energy and Happiness during their breaks between shifts.

Choose work behavior carefully: Default work consumes 180 Energy per shift, Overtime consumes 240, and Hard Labor consumes 360.

Manage pollution, housing quality, workplace conditions, and decorative buildings because these factors influence Peep Happiness.

Prevent collective strikes by monitoring Happiness. If more than 40% of Peeps fall below the relevant Happiness threshold, a strike can interrupt production.

Resolve strike-related goals, such as providing housing or cleaning Toxic Areas, to end a strike early rather than waiting through its scheduled shifts.
