Today's game is Oxygen Not Included. Every once and a while i'll hop into this game and just build a colony. Usually they go to shit real fast though. This one i decided to try scheduling my duplicates, so i have them split between night shifts and day shifts equally.

If you'll look to the right of the image, you'll see the Piss Pit. That's where i have them dump all the dirty water until i get something to clean it. I also have them constructing a cafeteria for them to eat in. I figured they probably need one, and especially a kitchen to produce food in. I want to get a farm started too feed them better food.

I also have a "warehouse" built to the left. And by Warehouse i mean like 8 Storage containers i'm too lazy to organize. The first one is algae though so they can get to it in an emergency. I've also built a generator room, with two beds under it. that's where the generator staff sleeps, so it's harder for the power to go out. If the power goes out then everything goes bad real fast and i don't want my little guys dying.

Here's an extra picture of an older colony that my friends have taken to calling the Mess, because it's such a jumbled mess of wires, pipes, vents, and beds.

yeah if you're not sure whether you'd be into it it's better to not waste money :)

if you're interested, check out the contraptions people are building to run steam turbines from geysers, or process oil, or extract metal from volcanoes. it's crazy complicated stuff but if you're into that it may win you over.
