IXION Lets Play - Dead Earth Sickness - Chapter 1 Start - EP3

This episode is part one of IXION Chapter 1, where we discover just how devastating the Lunaclysm was.
IXION is finally here, and I am more than a little bit in love with this game. Describing the game genre is a bit difficult, since it combines so much from so many games - but one quick summary would be that this is a Sci-Fi Space game similar to Frostpunk, but with a lot of aspects leaning on logistics, grid city builder games, factory and production games, and so much more. The storyline is simply awe-inspiring, and the soundtrack is one of the best soundtracks I have heard in a game.
I hope you will enjoy the series as we explore the story of the Tiqqun, as I try to guide it through space with presumably the last remnants of humanity, in the hopes of finding a colonisable exo-planet that we can colonise.

About the Game
----------
IXION combines city building, survival elements and exploration, into a thrilling space opera as you explore the stars. Propelled onwards through a perilous journey, you are the Administrator of the Tiqqun space station, charged with finding a new home for humanity.
Keeping the station sound and flying will require a deft hand and strategic thinking, as you are constantly pulled between maintaining hull integrity, bringing in new resources and managing power consumption.
What choices will you make when confronted with impending disaster? What will you discover out there in the dark?

That stuff about "simian amalgam" and "mushroom spores" plus the question of "Are We The Last of Us?" at the beginning just screams of a reference.

[@beansperkins]

The Venus station gives you more polymer if you restart the assembly line, but it happens over like 20-30 cycles.

[@Caledorn]

Oh, handy tip! Thank you!

[@Yacovo]

Thanks for the videos.

[@Hexadecima96]

Never a wasteland was such describe by a marvelous voice. GG

[@Caledorn]

Thank you so much for that very nice compliment! Much appreciated! 😄

[@michaelhaggett1016]

Good start, getting the resource/space/population issues is definitely a challenge

[@elenazlatareva9420]

Love the series.

[@BigBadJon101]

Thank you for the gameplay.

[@walterverlaan1286]

Good stuff.

Sad that you didn’t get back in time to save the humpback whales

[@Caledorn]

Maybe the Dolphins saved them when they left?

[@Jules_Diplopia]

Thanks for the gameplay... I was a little disappointed that all 3 of the Earth events HAD to be done and were all positive. I wasted several cycles trying to not do option 3 scouring the dead Earth. That seemed like a disrespectful thing to do and likely yo be negative. But I suppose the devs just wanted to gift the player a good stash of resources.

[@Caledorn]

Thank you! 😊 Yeah, I see your point there - but I suspect you're right. We really needed a bunch of resources there to get things running.

[@martenkahr3365]

You know, I would have though that the second option, having the research team waste valuable time on your petty personal curiosity about your own house, would have to be a Trust hit or something.

[@Caledorn]

@@martenkahr3365 I was a bit confused about that too the first time I did it (which was not in this video, obviously)...

[@Jules_Diplopia]

@@martenkahr3365 Me too. Why would anyone care? But it is a positive. I suppose that the final full scale search, had some merit, to provide "closure" to the crew of the Tiqqun.

15:12 69 ice...Nice !

[@Caledorn]

😂

[@tamasnagy5107]

how did you find dolos with satellite? u didnt show us

[@Fledor.]

Must say it's very frustrating that you don't get any indication as to where these events might be lurking in the solar system
