Creepy Jar dropped the second part of their Base Building Basics video series for StarRupture on June 25, 2026. If you missed the first one, they suggest checking it out on YouTube first — this new video dives into the trickier stuff that separates rookies from pros.
What’s Covered
The video walks through several key mechanics you’ll need to master:
- Building stability principles
- Drone Smart Path system — how drones figure out their routes
- Drone priority and how to use it effectively
- Upgrading Drone Rails — you don’t need to tear down slower rails to upgrade them
- Deconstructing the entire base with one click
- Higher Tier Buildings and how to unlock them
- Tips on Quartz and where to find it
That bit about Drone Rails is a real time-saver. No more ripping out old infrastructure just to slap down faster versions.
Community Questions
The team also asked players to share their favorite tip from the video or any extra advice they’ve picked up. You can drop your thoughts in the comments on the Steam page.
If you want to support the devs, there’s a Supporter Pack available on Steam. The video itself is free to watch, and it’s a solid watch if you’re still figuring out the factory flow.
