HELP! What is "new content"?

[a13o]

I would break down deliverables into three categories: infrastructure, content, and quality improvements.

Infrastructure is stuff that multiplies the value of the existing content. Guilds and global chat for example. Other features I want, the ability to sell bundles and a way to sell prefabs, are also infrastructure in my mind.

Quality improvements are bug fixes, updates to the UI, etc. The small things that prevent death by a thousand cuts.

Content is everything else. New blocks, new tools, new enemies, hats, planets, all of it.

The farming system itself would be infrastructure and the things we can do in it would be new content. Adding more recipes to farming in an even later update would be new content.

What do I want to see next? Content! Here’s some of my favorite suggestions I’ve made that have content components.

Player Made Exploration Ideas

Thought of a few things I wish were in the game so we could make fun little puzzles and rewards for other players. Very Tiny Sign It’s a stone sign, but it’s very tiny. So tiny it doesn’t display any text on the front so you’ll have to interact with it to read more. Great for making scavenger hunts or hiding secret messages. Reward Chest You specify a reward (items or coins) and fill the chest up with lots of the reward. Players can interact with it once-per-account to claim the reward. The c…

Loot moons

What if the game randomly generated moons in the sky around some planets without telling anyone? Moons are much smaller than regular planets and can’t be plotted. The only way to get to one is to notice it in the sky and fire off a warp totem. And they’re flipping covered in loot! Once on the moon you will find what kind of micro ecosystem it is. Maybe the moon is rocky with lots of rubies and crawling with spitters. Maybe the moon has trees made of growth and a high shimmering orb drop rate. M…

Evolvable blocks

I think it would be cool if there were decorative blocks that would “upgrade” their beauty by placing them into specific situations and letting them evolve. For example imagine a Hedge Block that’s crafted out of foliage and we’re able to stack kinda nicely like Marge Simpson’s hair. If you put this block outside and it receives 5 planetary-days of sun without any snow, it will upgrade to a Flowered Hedge Block which is mostly the same look but now it has some pretty white flowers dotting throu…

I’m not picky though. I’ll enjoy just about anything. I probably would enjoy new monsters with new AI the most. I also have a ton of infrastructure or quality suggestions I still love… but another time.
