Description:

A randomizer game mode that forces you to complete ‘checks’ to unlock gates to other regions.

You will start the game with every gate locked. In order to progress, you must complete ‘checks’ which will unlock random gates, as well as awarding karma, passage tokens, and key items / abilities.

Things that can count as checks:

– Completing passages
– Bringing colored pearls to a shelter
– Finding sandbox tokens
– Meeting echoes
– Other specific goals such as meeting Iterators or eating a neuron

Remix Menu

The remix menu contains multiple configuration settings, such as:
– Turn on/off certain checks and unlocks
– A custom seed field, allowing for seeded runs. (in order for seeded runs to be identical, the same settings / version must be used)
– Random starting locations, similar to expeditions

Campaign specific notes

Gourmand- To open the Outer Expanse gate, you must collect both the gate and the Mark
Artificer- Same deal with the Metropolis gate, you need the gate and the Mark
Rivulet- If the setting is enabled, the mass rarefaction cell will need to be unlocked rather than found normally. (The cell’s location is still a check)
Spearmaster- The aquisition of the pearl and the encoding of LttM’s broadcast are both unlocks
Watcher- Not currently supported, will likely be a while before it is

Modded Regions

This mod supports custom regions in a similar way expedition does.
As long as the region is marked "Story" or "Optional" in the code, it should work correctly.
Please leave a comment if you run into any special issues.

If you run into problems with a run not being possible, or you’re simply stuck and don’t know where to go, the pause menu has an additional UI where you can view your seed, as well as give yourself a check if needed.

Archipelago Support

What is Archipelago?[archipelago.gg]
In short, Archipelago is a multi-world randomizer system, allowing you to play with multiple games randomized together. This mod supports it as a separate mode, enabled in the Archipelago tab of the remix settings. The features present in this mode are different from normal, so here’s an outline

Archipelago:

– Allows for Multi-world randomization
– Comes with more options and features than standalone does currently
– Does NOT support any modded regions or other mods that change the state of the world
– Requires a room to be hosted on the website, and cannot be played offline

To play this mode, follow instructions on the website. This game is not on the supported list, you will have to download the world to add separately here.[github.com] It’s also recommended you join the Archipelago Discord if you have any questions, which can be found on the FAQ page of the website.
