BetaBay

Native Summary

A smaller gateway island where robots perform tasks incorrectly - sweeping the water, watering the rocks, walking into walls. Glitchy but mostly harmless. Earl has set up his makeshift workshop camp here and is already tinkering with the first batch of salvaged parts.

You can purchase and use Battery Brine Chum.

How to play

A lot of the fish here will drop Robot Scrap, which can be used to build different projects. You can also get them from opening a Treasure Chest or the Mystery Tackle Crate, and sometimes from trying to catch a fish but missing.

The main chum to use is Battery Brine Chum, but you can also possibly use Gold Goop Chum, Diamond Dip Chum and Tidepool Mush Chum.

Moving on

You'll need to level one of your poles to level 15. This will enable you to build Project 1 at Earl's Workshop, which involves the Robot Scrap, which builds an Unsinkable.exe boat and unlocks the next area, CrashSite.

Earl: "Me best work yet! Don't look underneath though." She rolls AND floats - the Unsinkable.exe is christened and ready to haul ye across them impossible Roboton waves. Spent 50 Robot Scrap (had xxx, now xxx). Earned the Steering Cow Wheel collectible (had x, now x).
