Trivia

Developers' footages of biome generation can be seen on a playlist from Russel Maekim's Youtube channel. He also sometimes livestreams his work on Twitch.

The game considers the inside of an Observatory, Lifepod, and Scanner Room to be separate biomes. This is also true for the Aurora and for some of the large wrecks in the Koosh Zone and Grassy Plateaus (respectively labelled crashedShip and wreck).
