If you have played the mod, please give me your feedback in this feedback form.[forms.gle] It would be greatly appreciated.

Starburst is an overhaul mod that aims to add variety to and improve systems of Starbound. With vast biome and planet improvements, a dynamic hazard system, a ton of planet variation, new materials, new equipment, visual improvements, and more! It changes the game's progression to build up more and allow you to have more open choice about where you explore, and makes the choice more meaningful.

Every planet feels distinct with its own challenges and variations to face. Explore an improved universe with its own dangers and things to find. Awe inspiring structures and aesthetics, new and strange things you might find in it. All the way to some of the darkest places it can go. What will you find out there, you'll just have to find out.


The planet hazard system has been overhauled greatly, with dynamic planet scaling as you progress through the game. Planets of higher tiers become more hazardous and not just in enemy scaling. However, you have a savior. With the new Hazard Lab Table and found around the universe, there are objects, consumables, food, and augments to help you while you build up towards EPPs. You can even go without protection and still survive if you can handle the effects they bring.

Many hazards have been added to give better variety to what you might face. All old hazards have been reworked to be more survivable. Mild versions of all hazards have been implemented to planets starting at Tier 3. As well, 2 new hazard types have been added: Toxicity and Static. Both have unique ways of keeping you on your toes.

Many weather patterns have been changed and added to become hazardous. These weather patterns give you Mild versions of the hazards they belong to and start as early as Tier 2. They aren't too dangerous, they last only for a little while and taking shelter blocks them entirely without any hazard mitigation. Take shelter!

Progression as a whole has been greatly overhauled, with new hazards, reworked stars, and planets shifted around to better fit each one and their theming. The variety of hazards found on new planets allows more open and dynamic progression that helps build up difficulty as you progress through the game. Granting you more options as the game goes on!

As well, many sometimes forgotten things, such as randomized weapons and throwing weapons have new sprites to be more visually pleasing.

All planets now have their own unique biome spawns and dungeon spawns entirely unique to them, ones that fit the planet themselves, no longer homogenized. The biomes themselves have been improved with new looks in certain places, with new objects, plants, weathers, and even improved parallaxes on some. As well, they have their own new cave structures below the surface with new things to find.

Q: Is this compatible with Frackin' Universe?
A: Yes, this mod has made accomodations to fit in Frackin' Universe, however, it likely won't work too well. It won't break anything though.
