The eye of the universe looks a lot like the figure you get when you draw lines between all the stars in the constellations and zoom out.

Atleast it looks very similar to me but i might be delusional

I've been on a waiting list to get the vinyl of outer wilds for almost 2 years! And finally it arrived! Tomorrow is my boyfriend 21st birthday and I'll surprise him with this! I'll try to update you guys with his reaction...

I can't draw at all but thought that this looks cute, what do you think??

Wish me luck!

She made this for me ages ago but I saw the other cool post about coordinates, saw this on my wrist, and thought I’d share 😊

I think I'll do more later, they're just too fun to draw

i know ive barely grazed the surface but im already losing motivation because everything i found feels like nothing burger. any hints or motivation is appreciated 🫶🏼

Has anyone made a sort of racing mod for Outer Wilds?

I was talking to a friend about the new Tesla car and how it's a kind of a joke and that the best thing to come from it will be the GTA parody version to play with in GTA 6.

But it got me thinking about how fun it would be to have a racing game that properly uses 3D space and thrusters for manoeuvring a course.

Made me think of how fun an Outer Wilds Kart mod would be. You could have Suit races and Ship races. Use all the current assets to make themed courses out of and all that. Use different gravities to put an effect on different tracks or sections of track. Make the ghost matter become like, clouds that slow you down etc.

Im really hoping this mod already exists and someone can point me in the right direction but if not, maybe I've provided some inspiration for those more talented than I!

Does anyone have an image file for these posters i love the design but the deluxe edition isn't available anymore so i was wondering if i could just print them out myself (not sure if this is allowed here so just tell me if its not and ill delete the post ::) )

Help me fulfil my dumb idea's please ::)

(Scout launcher counts as a thruster)

EDIT: Solved! Thanks everyone :)

First off, plenty of spoilers ahead, so beware. I assume most people browsing this sub have finished the game, but just in case, turn away now as I’m pretty sure I’m like 95% of the way there if not more.

TLDR is that I’m pretty sure I have figured out everything except for how to get into the dang Ash Twin Project core. I’ve made it this far without looking anything up but I might just need the tiniest of hints to get me over the last hurdle here.

I have every single info card in the ship log unlocked except for the Ash Twin Project, with no more “there’s more to explore here” tags.

I have the coordinates to the eye and put together how to plug them into the vessel. I know I need an advanced warp core to power the vessel (I tried bringing a warp core from the High Energy Lab but it says “this warp core doesn’t fit”)

The ship logs for the black hole forge notes that an Advanced Warp Core was made for the ash twin project, so I know I need to get in there (the giant question mark in my ship log is a giveaway too lol). The Nomai Mines logs note that the Ash Twin Project core is fully sealed off with no physical entrances, which implies I need to warp in there somehow, but I cannot for the life of me put together where that warp pad would be.

Prior to this the Sun station was the only place I’d yet to explore so I figured that would have my answer but it turned out not to have any information I didn’t already know or hadn’t already deduced.

My best guess is the Ash Twin Project warp has something to do with the alignment angle diagram in the black hole forge and the note that the twin planets share an alignment point? But I’m not sure how that helps me get into the Ash Twin core…

I discovered this game via a random Reddit comment last month and I haven’t had to look up any hints so far which I’m proud of, but I’m at the point where I’ve spent hours trying just to figure out this last bit and I’m just going in circles. I work full time and am in a masters program and I’m a dad of a toddler so I’m getting to the point where I can’t justify spending an hour at night here and there not making progress in this game lol so as much as this feels like giving up before solving the big puzzle, I’m at my wits end.

Is there an extremely minimal hint that can push me in the right direction without spoiling anything? Am I close enough that I should just keep pushing along with no hints?

I cannot land on any of the smaller, faster objects to save my life.

I know the autopilot. I know landing mode. I can read the trajectory arrows. I've watched tutorials. Everything.

I am try to land on the thing (no spoilers) orbiting Giant's Deep. I must have spent an hour trying to get on that thing.

It's the same with everything else. I can land on the planets ok, but I haven’t been able to progress and am about to quit the game. Whatever the amazing story is, I'll never see it because I'm just frustrated. I wish the game had some kind of easy mode for people who really suck at flying.

You say this game can only be played once and has no replay value?

WRONG!

I've played this game about 2 years ago during the dark ages of my unemployment. I remember you have to align something something to open something then you go through some centrifuge to get the thing and then you put that thing into another thing on another planet then you get into the forest and end the game or something something.

Sound pathetic? WRONG!!!! IT'S PEAK! I literally remember 10% of the game barely. I can already see myself playing this masterpiece again in another 2 years, I just have to keep drinking and smoking weed, there's just this little funny tingly feeling on the left side of my upper chest and the lower side of my right, but WHO GIVES A FUCK I can get to play OUTER WILDS again SOON

WEEEEEEE

I also wanted to experience something similar (Tunic, Subnautica, etc.) but i think there's nothing as good as OW in this. What are your favorites that can give me cool emotions, but different?

P.S. I still have DLC to complete so without EotE spoilers please

Hey everybody! I just released my video on Outer Wilds and me and my friend don‘t agree on whether I spoiled too much of the game.
If the spoil really is too much, I’d like to rework this video and re-release it with less spoilers!
General feedback on the video is also highly appreciated, since this is my very first video.

>!/Help! I’ve been playing through the dlc for the first time and I have reached a bit of a wall. These are the leads I have so far: !/<

>!/ I have found my way into the house in the shrouded woodlands but every time I explore, the door is locked behind me and I’m surrounded and kicked out of the dream. Entering it while dead doesn’t change that. I believe the secret fireplace is in the house behind the strangers. !/<

>!/ I also found the mural I need to get behind in the endless canyon. I found a stranger watching a slideshow I can distract with my lantern but it doesn’t seem to make him leave that location, just turn off the slide and then back on shortly afterwards. I think I need to lure him to open some door I don’t have access to yet but I’m not sure how. !/<

>!/ The slide burning room taught me that I can enter the dream world while dead to silence the alarms and that lets me disable one of the chains in the sealed vault. I think the secrets to undoing the other two are behind the two puzzles I’ve attempted above. Not sure if I’ve just missed any hints or need to do more exploring. I’m not sure where else I haven’t explored yet, but any help is appreciated and I’m happy to provide any more detail in the comments! !/<

Hey everyone! A few days ago I finished my orchestral cover of the main theme from Outer Wilds. This game and its music mean so much to me so I really wanted to make my own version with a lot of love. I know I could never top the original but I put my heart into it.

Just so you know the music is 100 percent human made, no AI at all. And as a little detail I made it so it starts and ends the exact same way so it loops perfectly, just like the game (Yeah a bit cheesy I know).

Quick thing about usage, please do not reupload it or distribute it or claim it anywhere. But you can totally use it in edits, memes, videos and stuff like that (mention if possible), and of course you can listen to it or add it to your playlist, that would actually make me super happy. I will also put it on Spotify and all that in a couple weeks. Hope you guys like it and let me know what you think.

I'm speechless 🥺

After completing the dlc just recently i finally thought it's time for me to get all achievements in this game, and i created a new profile to experience the game all over again. I was doing it blind again to get all the logs, and i was mostly succesful. I even checked the rumor mode and the game didn't told me anything like more to explore, so i finally saw what i was missing and i was missing the 6th entry in the vessel lmao.

After replaying the game now, i still think i enjoyed it, not as much as my 1st playthrough. But i played this game 5 years ago, i remember most of the answers, but i honestly forgot how i got those answers, because so many of these answers are scattered and interconnected to each other. It was fun doing it all over again.

Specifically, does the player's experience of going through the black hole explain the mechanics of time travel as presented in the game?

I've always wondered exactly what is happening from an existential standpoint when your character dies/the loop ends. When your character's memories are sent into the ATP back in time, can it be said that the character's consciousness is essentially traveling as well? Or, is the ATP/time travel in general essentially creating an entirely brand new universe where another version of you exists, and suddenly the memories are incepted into this new version of you that you now play as?

The High Energy Lab doesn't give us a clear answer on this. There, we can simulate from an outside perspective that by launching a probe into the black hole, it arrives slightly earlier out of the white hole than it leaves, allowing you to see both versions at the same time. But we can't say for sure whether (1) The same probe is temporarily existing in two spaces at once; or (2) The time travel has created a new version of the probe, which temporarily exists at the same time as the "original" probe.

However, by going through Brittle Hollow's black hole, we can experience this effect first-hand. The experience is reaching what is essentially the event horizon of the black hole, seeing a flash of white light, and then being spat out of the white hole. If we pretend we are the High Energy Lab probe, this means that we are seeing ourselves come out of the white hole, but there is a version of ourselves still entering the black hole at the same time. If someone were to "close" the Brittle Hollow/White Hole Station loop, it would result in two of us and create a paradox.

The important detail, though, is that your character's observations of the black hole cease completely when observing yourself come out of the white hole. So what does that make of the "you" that has not yet completely entered the black hole? Was that not you, just moments ago, jumping into the black hole? Yet you are now the you, observing yourself coming out of the white hole, no longer able to see the black hole and thus experiencing an entirely different stream of consciousness.

What this tells me is that time travel in Outer Wilds does not move anything at all, but is essentially a reverse cut-and-paste. It creates new matter and energy in the past, then destroys an equal amount of matter and energy in the present. This explains in part why the ATP requires so much energy - there is a very high energy cost to "front load" moving memories back in time before they are destroyed.

In other words, every time you fell through that black hole, or hell, used one of the Nomai teleporter pads, your character ceased to exist, only for a new character to take its place. You don't see the Nomai mask animation because you don't need the ATP for this to happen - you are only going back in time a fraction of a second.

As an aside, I did wonder if this is further established by the fact that when you jump into the ATP black hole and then go back, you find the prior version of yourself waiting there for you. However, this isn't concrete proof. This only establishes that the ATP black hole has both transported (1) Your memories via the masks, and (2) Your body. Theoretically, one of these could be the original "you" consciousness from the future (it can't be both because they clearly operate independently). But based on the above, I see both as new versions of your character, and the game has just decided that the player controls the character that wakes up by the fire.

Thoughts?

I thought about joining this sub Reddit for quite a bit, finished the game a couple years ago, plus the dlc. Then I built a model of the entire system from scratch in a silly Roblox game about boats :D

Ps- there's barely any spoilers on the gif of the build, just the solar system itself. I did put quite a bit of details in some areas but I'd have to find a way to put proper spoilers before showing them.

I currently listened to about 3/4 of the whole video and it's great. They didn't focus too much on Outer Wilds, rather talk more about personal life, their childhood gaming experiences, and creative process. I still find it interesting and recommend y'all a listen.

When I first played the game I spent months listening to its OST and I stumbled upon this End Times cover on youtube.

I wouldn't be able to describe the actual music but I distinctly remember that it had the new universe art (the one shown post credits) as background and probably thumbnail. Another detail I remember is that the song started at a very slow pace, slower than the original. Last thing I remember is that at some point the subtitles read "AGGRESSIVE SYNTH SOLO" (and it really was an aggressive synth solo).

I've been replaying the game with my bf and I went looking for the video on youtube but it's gone now and I need to listen to it again! Does anyone know this cover and where to find it?

Hi, everyone!

A while ago, I made an edit combining a song from the musical *Hamilton* with *Outer Wilds*. And now, I’ve had another idea for doing one.

I hope you like it c:
I appreciate any feedback and comments.
