When we last left Fault Inc’s first space colony things were looking pretty good. We had a set of solar panels producing tons of electricity that we then used to power both a water extractor and an oxygen plant. Toss in all the freeze dried food the colonists brought with them and the future is looking bright!
At least until the sun goes down.
No sun means no solar energy. No solar energy means no electricity, which means no water which means no oxygen.
As you might imagine the Fault Inc colonists are not happy about this and start complaining.
You already had twelve hours of oxygen today. What more do you want?
The good news is that they stop complaining pretty quickly. The bad news is that they stop because they’re all dead.
On the bright side poor Jude apparently died happy.
Well shoot. Not only did several brave astronauts lose their lives but Fault Inc’s insurance premiums are probably going to skyrocket too. We’d better be extra careful with the next colony.
