RAIN WORLD PROGRESS UPDATE: After my dad started his own file and found the gate to Industrial Complex, I decided to forget about Drainage System and try my luck in Industrial Complex instead. That was certainly the right course to take, as I have yet to go back into Outskirts and I am thriving in there! Almost.
On my last cycle, I was headed back to a shelter without much time left on the cycle, when I realized that the path to the shelter was just barely out of reach. With no time to take a detour, I remembered the vertical spear pole technique. I backflipped, staked the spear, climbed it to the exit, and made it back to the shelter in time!
I also completed The Survivor in that hibernation. Given my infinite-or-nothing thinking for certain resources, I’m not sure where I’ll use the passages.
