Starsand is a mystic survival game set among the dunes of an arcane desert. An open-world full of danger, vast environments and mysterious happenings await you! Explore, hunt, craft, build – and SURVIVE.
Hello Desert Runners!
Today's update comes with a strange note we found in the desert:
[b]Dear Prudence![/b]
[b]I Want To Tell You[/b]: [i]I’m So Tired[/i]! [b]I’m Only Sleeping[/b]! But[i] With A Little Help From My Friends[/i] I was [b]Fixing A Hole[/b]. A hole made by a beetle. But this was [b]Yesterday[/b]. Today [i]I Feel Fine[/i] [b]In My Life[/b]!
[b]Here Comes The Sun.[/b] [i]She Loves You[/i]. But I wanted [b]Rain[/b]. The [b]Long And Winding Road[/b] to the pyramids is [i]Here, There And Everywhere[/i]. [b]If I Needed Someone[/b], [i]I Want To Hold Your Hand[/i], [b]We Can Work It Out[/b]!
There is [i]Something[/i]! Or?
I should stay!?
[b]Wait[/b], [i]Let It Be[/i], [b]Because[/b] [i]I Should Have Known Better[/i]!
No… [b]Run For Your Life[/b]!
[b]Help[/b]! ...
Don't panic!
It's not an enormous worm that wants to eat you for breakfast. That's what [i]sandipedes[/i] or crocodiles are for! No, they are beetles that you can catch and keep in a terrarium (also new!). Consider them a substitute for the TV program since you've been involuntarily stranded on Starsand. There's even an extra album for the little rascals.
You can retrieve the insects out of the sand with a special tool. Gotta catch 'em all!
Of more practical use (unless you're a fan of binge-bug-watching) are the new modules for your clay shelter, allowing you to build a tower!
Have fun and we'll see you again soon with more news!
