Is this your first day at work?<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t worry at all, working in zero-gravity salvage isn\u2019t nearly as scary or difficult as people say. Besides, LYNX Corporation has all your genetic data on file in case there are any first day slip-ups. If you happen to blow yourself up tearing down a difficult ship, we\u2019ll bring you right back, no fuss at all. You\u2019ll have to pay for it of course; safety and security always come with a price!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Still, everyone\u2019s first day can be tricky, so we\u2019re going to walk you through salvaging your very first ship in Hardspace: Shipbreaker<\/strong><\/em>, the zero-gravity deep space salvage workplace simulator from Blackbird Interactive and Focus Entertainment. We want to keep the death and dismemberment to a minimum as you get used to the thrill of salvaging every last material and piece of equipment on the ships you work on, so please read carefully as we share some of the best advice we can give a Shipbreaker who is just starting out.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Space may be cold and lonely, but profit will always keep us warm!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Get Used to Moving Around in Zero-Gravity<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The salvage bay is just like any office, just without air, gravity, or basic safety precautions. Let your guard down or get overwhelmed and panic? You\u2019re as good as gone. It\u2019s been zero days since we\u2019ve had an accident, and that number hasn\u2019t moved in years.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Why is it so dangerous out here? Without practice, it\u2019s easy to lose control of your own movement only to end up slamming into a solid object, drifting into the furnace, wasting salvage, or even causing your own death. If you want to save on the cost of a new body, practice your movement until space becomes your playground. So strap on your thrusters, take a deep breath of canned air, and let\u2019s get started.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n
Use Your Scanner to Make a Plan and Your Cutting Tool to Put it into Action<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n
The first ship you\u2019ll find yourself salvaging is a Mackerel, a relatively small transport ship. Think of each ship you\u2019re salvaging as a chicken wing: the goal is to get as much of the tissue off the bone as possible for the most profit. Anything wasted will be counted against you; deep-space salvage is a business in which efficiency and precision are everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So when you\u2019re presented with your first ship, you\u2019ll want to use your scanning tool to get a look at the ship\u2019s layout, and get an idea of where the cut points \u2013 the structures marked in yellow on the scanner that hold the ship together \u2013 are located. For now, you\u2019ll want to search for an open airlock or remove the thruster cap from the rear of the ship.\u00a0<\/p>\n
$\"Hardspace$ <\/figure>\n
Once you\u2019re inside, use the laser cutter in the stinger configuration for maximum safety to melt each cut point, being careful not to overheat the laser cutter. The heat meter for the tool is located on the side of the hardware, and you\u2019ll also hear a warning tone if you\u2019re close to overheating \u2013 which would cause your suit to catch on fire, and any flammable objects around you to also burn or explode. More importantly, this can also kill you, and even if it doesn\u2019t, it hurts quite a bit.<\/p>\n

LYNX Counts Every Dollar but You Shouldn\u2019t<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n
The more time you can spend salvaging, the more efficient you\u2019ll be, so keeping an eye on your supplies will always pay off, both for LYNX and for you!!\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everything you do in Hardspace: Shipbreaker<\/em> during a shift in the campaign costs resources. You need to keep your thrusters fueled, your air supply topped off, your suit in good condition, and your consumables loaded up. You can sometimes find supplies inside the ships you\u2019re salvaging, but don\u2019t bet on that; it\u2019s important to pay attention to the levels of each of your resources so you don\u2019t suddenly find yourself fighting for breath because you were too focused on your cutting.\u00a0<\/p>\n
$\"Hardspace$ <\/figure>\n
Luckily, LYNX thought ahead and provided you with a kiosk attached to your living quarters that will dispense all these supplies and more, as long as you can pay for them. This isn\u2019t the time to be tight with your money; dying and having to pay for a new body is a lot more money than investing in a safe and smooth shift. Remember that each shift in the campaign mode lasts for 15 minutes, so it\u2019s important to keep an eye on the clock in order to make the most money possible to repay your debt to LYNX.<\/p>\n
Your attention is, in many ways, the most precious resource of them all. Spend it wisely! Follow this advice and you\u2019ll have a great first day with Hardspace: Shipbreaker<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 now available on Xbox Series X|S and included with Xbox Game Pass.<\/p>\n
