Something i literally can't stop thinking about at the end of every salmon run shift, there's no way super jumping straight into a helicopter is safe

Welcome to Future Utopia Island!
-The theme of this area is ‘childhood’. This was a place to gather for the younger citizens of Alterna, and the innocent remnants of their lives are scattered about.
-You can find a bicycle to ride on the shores of the island. Smallfry loves to tag along in the basket. ^^
-O.R.C.A.’s first terminal is found here. Once you have collected three Golden Eggs from the first section of the underground laboratory, O.R.C.A. will detect their energy on you and grant you access to the first few of its files, as well as the rest of the lab spaces in the area. Its hope is that you will continue to collect energy to ‘reawaken’ Alterna, and keep its legacy alive by learning its workings and history.
-Shiver, along with the rest of Deep Cut, had no idea that O.R.C.A. existed until now. But since it’s opening up facilities where they can find more weapons, supplies, and Golden Eggs, they suggest you do whatever it wants so it’ll keep helping you. ^^
-The number of Golden Eggs you can collect is fixed: 3 from clearing each lab space, and 33 from defeating each King Salmonid boss. In this way, the number in your possession acts as a benchmark for your progress.
However, the number of Power Eggs you can collect is unlimited, just like in the real game. You can search the overworld and return to lab spaces repeatedly to gather as many as you want. These are used to access/retry certain challenging levels, to feed Smallfry and clear Fuzzy Ooze, and to activate Nostalgic Devices.
-A Nostalgic Device is usually a mundane electrical appliance, toy, or piece of gadgetry, reminiscent of some aspect of life in Alterna. O.R.C.A. will reward you with special files and locker decorations for finding and activating them, and the Devices themselves will often lead you to Power Egg caches or Sunken Scrolls.
-When you look at certain locations from a far enough distance, you may see a large shadowy figure interacting with whatever Nostalgic Device is hidden there. If you’re having trouble finding any Devices, keep an eye out for that shadow while you explore Alterna!

O.R.C.A. Appreciation 💚💙🐬🖥💙💚👍👍👍
translation of 1st image & rambling under cut
"My Dear O.R.C.A.,
I’m typing this here for you to keep with you in the future. Maybe I’ll add a recording to go along with it.
Anyway, what I wanted to say was thank you. Thank you, O.R.C.A., for all the help. Thank you for being such a hard worker and a good friend. I love you very much.
I hope that you will be able to work when I’m gone. Please keep watching over Alterna. Please help whatever next intelligent lifeform may occupy Earth. I wish we can go home together.
I’ll miss you,
Sumi"
^it's supposed to sort of parallel my neo 3's letters to orca. This is when alterna started getting desperate & sumi had the feeling they wouldn't last any longer so she wanted to make sure orca knew how she felt
It's not that big of a detail but I put "go home together" because someplace in Alterna theres a thing that says "go home together" and it stuck with me 💔
also sumi is short for sumireko .i named her after a touhou lol
And also also i like to think orca's main room or whatever is in Happiness Research Lab near the top of one of the sinking buildings. Idk. I love orca so much💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚
Also also also. Space odyssey reference in that second drawing he he he ha

Commander Tartar and Mr. Grizz, for @monicracar (twitter) in their style!
Very evil, Tartar and Grizz cling to the belief that mammals should return (no)
Check out Moni's incredible Tartar cosplay of this (on twitter!)
