A creative No Man’s Sky player named BackgroundMost1180 on Reddit shared several screenshots of a base they built that stands out due to its impressive garden design. This massive base, set in the Euclid Galaxy, is built on top of a natural rock pillar on the coast and features lush gardens filled with alien plant species and a large house with a roof garden. The house has four floors with an open mezzanine, an entire floor dedicated to the master bedroom, two spare bedrooms, a modern kitchen, and an entrance surrounded by space plants and overlooked by a large aquarium.

BackgroundMost1180 also shared some tips to create a custom base in No Man’s Sky, explaining that they obtained the stone walls, paving, roofing, and other structural pieces by exchanging Salvage Data nodules at the Space Anomaly or Construction Research Unit. The various plants can be obtained with quicksilver in-game currency that players can earn from doing daily and weekly missions at the Space Anomaly.
Over the past few years, No Man’s Sky has received massive updates to add additional content and expand its base-building options, including The Abyss, Next Generation, and Frontiers. These updates introduced new tools and customization features, allowing players to add complexity to their bases and create even more impressive structures. No Man’s Sky is now called one of the most relaxing base-building games, offering a large range of options for those who simply want to create their dream base in a foreign galaxy.

Set out from the edge of the Euclid galaxy and carve out your own interstellar existence in a vast universe teeming with life, danger and near-endless mystery. No Man's Sky is a hugely-ambitious, heavily-stylised, sci-fi adventure that spans entire galaxies all brought to life with procedural generation.

How you survive is up to you.
