Space Stage Easter Egg ideas

What’s about 42 that makes it special?

[Poodelicus (Crazy, Curious, and Stubborn)]

It’s a “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” reference. They build a supercomputer that spends 7.5 million years pondering the “Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything”, and it comes up with “42”. So they build another super computer, planet Earth, to figure out the actual “Ultimate Question” it answered, but it gets destroyed 5 minutes before computing the answer.

Also. the Staff of Life you get from Steve in Spore has 42 uses (same reference)

Perhaps there could be a religion worshipping 42?

It should be mandatory reading for everyone to read the Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. It’s also the reason why the censor word on the forums is belgium.

Perhaps we should include more HGTTG motifs as easter eggs?
Would they be easy enough to fit into the easter egg category?

[AnthropocenianAge (AnthropocenianAge Arthropleura wants to give you a hug!)]

So we should have an entire series of Easter Eggs based off each book in the HGTTG series?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I don’t think we should dedicate to many eggs to just one book

[JustaDumbThriver (Thrive is the only environment where I am not too lazy to capitalize)]

Russell’s Teapot, of course!

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

“Why is there a teapot in the middle of void?”

[JustaDumbThriver (Thrive is the only environment where I am not too lazy to capitalize)]

Congrats, that made me chuckle!

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I wonder if we could put some of the forum stuff as eastereggs into the game… like the Tea God.

[JustaDumbThriver (Thrive is the only environment where I am not too lazy to capitalize)]

Or… BELGIUM!

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I guess it could be brought as an easteregg in some space stage dialogues…

[Deathwake (i nuked zenzone and will never let him forget it)]

Something people never bring up in the what not to include thread how negative language should be represented. I think using the term berkelium for in game censorship could be used.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Why not just belgium but “berkelium”?

[domin2ktr]

How about an organic ocean from “Solaris” as a cosmic anomaly that can be studied?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Are we sure such an organism could really exist irl?

[Trappist-1e ("shot for the moon, and if you miss, you get on sun orbit lol")]

considering how trippy (pun half intended) fungus are, i don’t think it would be too absurd.

An pretty neat idea would be to you being able to find Pangonia (the planet we started before we got random name generation) and on it were being able to find the concept art creatures

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

That could work, though it is to be remembered that disturbance for instance would most likely not be present on such a planet.
Also maybe a banana-planet?

[AnthropocenianAge (AnthropocenianAge Arthropleura wants to give you a hug!)]

@aah31415

Also maybe a banana-planet?

Imagine if King Kong was found on such a world…
