Looking for some more variety in your universe? Tired of only seeing the same types of planets?
This mod adds Prismatic Stars, rainbow-colored systems with planets that can be of any threat level, regardless of biome. No longer will you have to scavenge around only in the 3 fiery biomes when you want an endgame experience. Prismatic Stars are easy to find. They glow in rainbow colors!
Not only that, Prismatic Planets, which orbit these stars, can come in any kind of crazy, mixed-up biome combination -- totally divorcing biome from sub-biome and sub-surface. Normally, tar biomes only show up on desert planets, but here you can just as easily find one on an icy tundra. Eyeball plants can sprout from arid worlds, and even volcano worlds can have icy caves hidden deep below. Every possible biome and sub biome can show up on these worlds, plus every kind of dungeon.
Cores and sub-surface are pulled from all possibilities, too, so your alien world might have a plutonium-rich core, like a moon, or you might find massive, sandy oil deposits under the surface of your arctic planet!
Further, sub-biomes can be primary biomes! How about a world that's half desert, half ocean? Or half barren, half lush? Anything goes on prismatic planets, and at any difficulty level! Just be sure you're ready for what you might find.
But that's not all! Sometimes you'll find even more special prismatic planets!
Hollow prismatic planets are exactly like normal prismatic planets, but once you delve deep enough below the planet's crust, you'll find a whole buried world, Land of the Lost style! What dwells beneath? Does your dry, arid world have a tropical paradise hidden in the sunless depths? Or is there a hostile volcano-world erupting magma just below the surface?
Sunken ocean planets are much the same, only instead of another world or biome, you'll find an immense, planet-spanning oceanic cavern (sometimes magma!).
This mod does not affect vanilla planets or stars in any way. All these crazy mix-and-match planets can only be found in Prismatic Star systems. If installing on an existing game, you'll have to move to unexplored space to find a Prismatic Star. So just pop the mod in and scroll out a little!
