The mod introduces a crop system with strict temperature requirements. Plants must be grown in climate-controlled zones or directly in extreme biomes to survive and be harvested. Their yield is the starting point of an entire production chain—through research progression, they can be refined step by step into composite materials, specialized fabrics, alloys, building materials, soil enhancers, and ultimately forged into ultimate weapons, forming a complete path from soil to high technology. Some crops have a chance to drop rare crystals upon harvest, which serve as the core material for forging ultimate weapons.
For defense, two types of turrets can be researched and constructed, capable of either indiscriminate bombardment on a designated area or penetrating a straight-line range to annihilate all enemies.
On the weapon side, a grenade launcher provides close-range bombardment and can be modified for long-range precision strikes without line of sight. Two ultimate melee weapons offer powerful buffs while inflicting irreversible curses. It is a choice—to let a colonist take up a cursed weapon in exchange for absolute power, or not.
The mod also offers night vision serum, snacks that temporarily boost mood and stats, lightweight floor tiles placeable on water and ground, and special plants to help colonies short on steel and cloth.
