Mod Areas
Space
Threat Level: low
Oxygen: none
Your first destination after leaving Earth. It's a central hub connecting all other locations.
Currently: Fly down to return to Earth, or fly up to reach the Moon!
The Moon
Threat Level: medium
Oxygen: none
A barren, but not lifeless, place. It hides more than meets the eye both above and below the surface.
Moon Moo: Long descended from cows who failed to jump over the Moon. They behave much like their earthen cousins, but a taste for moon melons gives them their vibrant, luxurious color!
Aliens: Classic grey aliens have set up base here. They are generally peaceful toward outsiders, but will defend their own fiercely. Some wield advanced alien tech, which you might get your hands on if you’re lucky!
Tardigrades: Hostile critters who live under the moon’s surface. They don’t have much health, but beware, a queen will ensure you face an onslaught!
Natural Blocks: As everyone knows, the Moon is made of cheese. But it’s buried under many layers of moondust and rocks. Luckily, the rocks are great for building, and the dust is perfect for leaving footprints! 
Lunite: A unique ore found on the Moon, currently used to craft a fun, tileable light block. 
Cheese: Found deep within the Moon, or crafted naturally by placing milk in a cauldron and waiting. 
Moon Melons: A strange plant that grows on tilled moondust! Moon Moos love them, and so will you! Eating one lets you go helmet-free on the moon for a little while. They can also be stripped with an axe. 
Unique Building Blocks: Moon Terracotta tiles in a seemingly alien way! And strange moon walls connect on diagonals!
