Introduction:

Late 22nd - early 23rd century. Humanity has been colonizing space for decades. Missions to unexplored planets are nothing new. Max has been reading about 4546B since he was a teenager. The first mission ended in failure. The crew didn't survive. The colonization project was frozen for years. Too risky. Too expensive.

Now - new technology, new knowledge. You and your crew, the "Beta" team, are heading to the planet. To study. To sample. To learn more about the life that thrives there. But something goes wrong on approach. A green beam from below. It wasn't in any of the data the first crew managed to send. You're wounded. Max is wounded. Your team is gone. All around you - endless ocean. And a tiny scrap of land.

Two intros:

➜ The Jungle
Warmth, dense vegetation, better chances of survival.
But you never know what's hiding behind the next leaf.

➜ The Glacial Biome (higher difficulty)
Clear sightlines, fewer unknowns.
But plant life exists only underwater. The cold cuts to the bone. Your only shelter is the water - or the rare hot springs.

Beta Crew NPC’s:

Lora (45, captain)

Sally (man, 37, pilot) 

Iris (29, medic)

Jeremiah (47, engineer): The team member Max is closest to.

➜ You can figure out the rest on your own. Nothing is known about you except that you’re a member of the team. Don’t be afraid to get creative - choose your own role within the team.

➜ You decide how close you were to Max before the crash. Friends? Lovers? Rivals? Strangers on the same mission?
