Play Survival if you consider hunger and death as part of the experience. Survive in the cosmos, explore the extra-terrestrial fauna and flora, craft your ship and get immersed in the adventure of a lifetime! A space station peacefully gliding through the galaxy?! And choose Hardcore if you want to immerse in the game with all you’ve got (character’s permadeath applies here). Secret underwater hideout? Play Casual if you strive for a challenge but are not concerned with real-life limitations like hunger or death.
