Choose your Character

What do I do here?

This is where you create the character that you will control in GalaXseeds! You can change five different parts of your character: the head, the legs, the body, the left arm and the right arm. You can also customize the colour of each part.

How do I change body parts?

Click on the arrow buttons next to each of the body part names.

How do I colour a body part?

Click on the name of the body part. Then, click anywhere in the colour box.

What does the random button do?

Click ‘Random’ to let the game create a character for you. You can click this button as many times as you like. If the game chooses something that looks almost perfect, you can always change one or two body parts by clicking the arrow buttons next to each of the body part names.

Can I change my character later?

As long as you are still in the setup phase, you can go back and change your character. Once you finish the set up phase and are in the game world, you will not be able to make any changes. So choose wisely!

What's the difference between the characters? Are some characters better than others?

All the characters have the exact same abilities – no body parts are better than others. The only difference is that each character has its own Grooves (e.g. dance moves), but these don't affect the way you play the game.

I clicked 'Next' when I wasn't finished! How do I go back?

Click the ‘Back’ button. You can change your character as long as you are still in the setup phase of GalaXseeds.

What do I do when I'm finished building my character?

Click the ‘Next’ button to go to the next section.

Choose your Clan

What do I do here?

This screen is where you decide on your home planet.

What's a Clan?

GalaXseeds is made up of four planets. Each planet is very different. When you choose a home planet, you become a member of that planet's Clan. Clans are like teams. You'll have to work together with the rest of your team to score points and win challenges.

What's the difference between the Clans? Which is the best Clan?

Each Clan planet looks very different, and the maps are all laid out differently. Choosing a Clan is all about deciding which planet you think looks the best, so don't be too worried about making the wrong decision!

Will the Clan with the most people win all the challenges and score the most points?

Points are scored based on an average of how many people are in each of the Clans, so there is no advantage to being in a Clan that has more members.

How do I see information for the other Clans?

Click the arrow buttons to cycle through descriptions for each Clan planet.

Can I change my Clan later?

As long as you are in the setup phase of GalaXseeds, you can change your Clan. Once you are in the game world, you become a permanent member of your chosen Clan, so choose wisely!

I've picked the Clan I like. Now what?

Click the ‘Next’ button to move to the next section of the setup phase.

Choose your Pod

What do I do here?

This screen is where you customize the outside of your Pod. You can pick the pattern and the colour you want it to be.

What's a Pod?

A Pod is where you live on GalaXseeds. It's a hinged capsule that folds open. Pods are split into two halves. On one side is your living space, and on the other side is your garden.

Can I customize my living space and garden?

Yes! That happens after you complete the setup phase and start playing the game. You will be able to add Gear (e.g. furniture) and grow Plants.

How do I put a pattern on my Pod?

Click on the arrow buttons to choose a different pattern for your Pod.

How do I colour my Pod?

Click anywhere in the colour box to choose a colour for your Pod.

What's the best colour or pattern?

Colours and patterns have no effect on gameplay – so pick whatever you like best!

Are these the only patterns I can choose from?

Yes.

Can I change the colour and pattern of my Pod later on?

As long as you are still in the setup phase, you can change the colour and pattern of your Pod. Once you have entered the game world, you will not be able to change them.

I'm finished customizing my Pod. Now what?

Click on the next button to enter the GalaXseeds game world!

Choose your Server

What do I do here?

This screen is where you choose which server you want to join.

What 's a server?

Each server contains an identical copy of the GalaXseeds world. The game needs to be split up because we can't fit everyone into one copy! Think of these servers as different copies of the same book. Everyone might be reading the same story, even if they're reading different books!

Once I choose a server, am I stuck there forever?

Nope! Whenever you start playing the game, you can pick the server you want to play in. You are able to join any server as long as it is not currently full.

How do I choose a server?

Click on the server name to join that server.

I keep clicking on a server but nothing happens. What's going on?

The server you're trying to join is full. Try choosing a different server.

How do I know what server my Friends are playing in?

If any of the players that you have added as friends are currently online, their names will appear in the ‘Friendly Seedizens’ list. When you roll your cursor over each server, the names of any Seedizens that are in that server will light up.

Why don’t I don’t see anyone in the Friendly Seedizen list?

Either none of your Friends are currently online, or you haven’t added any players to your Friends list.

My Friends are scattered across different servers. How can I play with them all at the same time?

You can try to get your Friends all to meet up on one server. Figure out the server you want to play on, then enter the other servers and send messages to your friends asking them to meet you on that other server.
