Comprehensive expansion with all ten stretch goals contextualized, activity descriptions, and co-op details
Beyond crafting, building, and exploration, Outbound includes a selection of leisure activities. Many were funded as Kickstarter stretch goals during the campaign that raised EUR 265,679 from 5,197 backers. These activities reflect the game's cozy identity: they exist for relaxation, atmosphere, and variety rather than as progression requirements.
Activity | Stretch Goal | Description |
|---|---|---|
Goal #4 | Catch fish from rivers, streams, and coastal waters for cooking | |
Goal #5 | Manage bee colonies in beehives to produce honey for cooking and crafting | |
Goal #3 (Cozy Kites) | Craft and fly kites in windy areas; purely atmospheric | |
Camping | Goal #2 | Set up bonfires, lanterns, seating, and decorations outside the van |
Tire Inflation | Goal #8 (More Mini Games) | Vehicle maintenance as a light interactive activity |
Fishing is accessible near water bodies in all biomes. Different water sources contain different fish species. Caught fish can be used in cooking recipes. The fishing rod is crafted at a workstation. This was one of the most requested activities during the Kickstarter campaign.
Beekeeping is a colony-management activity. Players catch bees in the wild and house them in beehives crafted from resources. Healthy colonies produce honey over time. Placement near flowering plants improves production. Honey serves as a cooking ingredient and crafting material.
Kite flying lets players craft kites and fly them in open areas. Wind and weather conditions affect kite behavior. It has no progression benefit and exists purely for atmosphere and relaxation.
When the van is parked, players can set up bonfires, outdoor seating, lanterns, and other decorations around the parking spot. Camping creates atmosphere at rest points and provides gathering spots in multiplayer sessions. This was the second stretch goal unlocked during the campaign.
Tire inflation and other van maintenance tasks function as light interactive activities. They keep the camper van in working order while providing a tactile change of pace from exploration and building.
