However, when it comes to survival, it is no longer funny. It was voiced, by the way, by the same actor that gave a voice to the narrator from The Stanley Parable, so be sure, you will smile in Void Bastards more than once and not two. Yes, there is such a bureaucracy and such a funny AI. The AI itself cannot do this – corny there are no arms and legs. Therefore, he frees up (or rather, rehydrates from the mixture) one of the cons, gives him a ration of essential items and gives instructions in the spirit of “First make a fake citizen card so that we can perform authorized operations.” And when everything is done, he reports that, as a reward, the term of imprisonment will be reduced by 16 days – and this, he says, will noticeably shorten the term for forging a citizen card. “Now it needs to be registered, but the prisoner cannot work on an authorized computer, so find the parts to assemble the new computer and don’t forget about the wheel from the mouse,” reports BACS, after which our hero hangs his head weakly on the table. To be more precise, we are not controlling the ship, but an amusing AI named BACS, the ship itself is a sort of ark on which prisoners are transported. And transported in the form of … dry mix. The ship was attacked by pirates and disabled the superlight drive – now you need to break through the expanses of the Sargasso Nebula and collect everything you need to start it again.
In Void Bastards, we control a spacecraft that moves on a star map from sector to sector, along the way, bumping into other ships, trading stations, pirates who will haunt us and take on boarding, on some kind of debris or useful resources, on the black holes that are thrown to a random place, to bombs that blow up either us or everything around, and even to interdimensional whales who can easily devour our vessel. If we continue to talk about the nearest sources of inspiration, then we must immediately recall the FTL: Faster Than Light.
