Exploration

By MrNoHelp

There are 22 planets in the Alphabounce galaxy. Each planet has its own characteristics and difficulty. When a prisoner explores and clears planetary sectors, it is displayed in their My Page. When the prisoner hovers their mouse over the explored planet it would show a pop-up box "Planet under exploration" and a percentage that represents the number of cleared sectors out of the cumulative. For instance, Soupaline has 16 sectors, if the prisoners clears 4 sectors, it would display 25%. However, if the planet is extremely large, clearing a few sectors does not represent significant percentage, it will only show that it is under exploration.

Unexplored

Few sectors explored

Partially explored

Fully explored

(Note: The planet will appear as fully explored if you have completed 99.5% of the planet. This percentage can only be attained on the 3 largest planets: Lycans, Volcer, and Samosa)

When the prisoner manages to fully explore a planet, a brief synopsis of the planet is displayed instead of the message "Planet under exploration"

Planet exploration is optional, however, there are a few missions that requires some planets to be fully explored.

The Missing Planet

There used to be a 23rd planet, Karbonis, but that can no longer be explored due to its core implosion which led to the formation of the Karbonis Belt. You may find that some travelers have explored Karbonis -- this is because they explored Karbonis before its implosion.
