Outer Wilds

it actually melts every time it gets closer to the sun and then refreezes i believe. At the start of a loop, head straight for it and stand on the ice while it heads to the sun early on. If you miss it, just stay on until it's next orbit [/spiller]

stop the loop from happening

I just wandered from planet to planet, taking it all in at first and merely getting snippets of what was happening. Got eaten instantly in Dark Bramble and ran into ghost matter as soon as I hopped out of my ship on Giant's Deep so initially thought these were merely endgame planets, so didn't go back for ages.

I had heard Brittle Hollow is the most exploration-rich planet (I disagree - Ember Twin has more IMO), so concentrated there at first. Thought I discovered everything without a guide, but had to go back there as I realised I never got inside the Tower Of Quantum Knowledge.

Discovered much of Ember Twin myself but only got to the Sunless City once and couldn't remember how to get back there, so referred to guide. Also needed the guide to figure out the anglerfish clue and felt like a dope when I realised how obvious it was. Used the guide to figure out quantum entanglement with the rock - again, bloody obvious.

Moved onto Ash Twin. Took me a good few attempts to get to the Sun Station (didn't think it was necessary - nice surprise though) but needed the guide to get to the core. Don't think I'd ever have figured that out myself.

Moved onto Giant's Deep. Explored the construction yard, quantum tower and probe cannon, but needed the guide to get inside the statue factory and the core. I could go under the current, but that was it. Hadn't explored Dark Bramble so didn't have the jellyfish clue. By the end of this, I hadn't put any dots together and hypothesised that those two who shot the probe at full power were responsible for the supernova/loop.

Moved onto Quantum Moon. Again, shouldn't have had to, but used the guide to find out how to land. Many false starts later and I finally got to the north pole and found yer man.

Got stuck into Dark Bramble and had no idea what to do. Top of guide I had mentioned the signalscope and that was a eureka moment. Found whatshisface, found the jellyfish (ah-ha), found the Nomai grave and had some rage inducing moments with the three anglerfish. Spent too long thinking I got rid of them by backing out of the seed and going back in, only to find myself lost every time. Guide told me to be patient and glide from the get go, which eventually worked.

was getting into the ash twin core. I used to just land my ship near the warp pad and play on my phone for 7 minutes until it was time
