| |
| − | To get here, click the "Home" button in the lower right corner of the comic.
| |
| − | |
| |
| − | The planet is tiny, grassy, has few trees and bushes and features a few people. Initially the navigation is difficult because of low initial engine thrust and strong gravity of the Origin planet nearby affecting movement
| |
| − | |
| |
| − | This is where the game starts. Pressing the "Home" button to go back to the starting planet shows the message, "Welcome back, pilot", which may be a reference to the greeting that plays when re-entering a Titan in the ''Titanfall'' video games.

| |
| − | To get here, launch from Beret Guy saying "Wow!" on the Starting Planet.
| |
| − | |
| |
| − | The planet is fairly big, has vegetation, and features many people, landscape objects, items and upgrades. It has a shaft through the center. The planet is hard to leave without any upgrades unless one uses the shaft to gain more momentum by thrusting while moving through the middle of it. Many of the landmarks of the surface mark the directions to different planets.
| |
| − | |
| |
| − | The planet has a sign saying 'Welcome to Origin! You can never leave™'. The name may also refer to the fact that the planet lies almost at the center of the game world, or that it is the starting point for exploration as it provides many navigational hints.

| |
| − | | This is a reference to the title text of [[1117: My Sky]], and it could also be a reference to [[502: Dark Flow]].

| |
| − | | Landscape
| |
| − | | Close to the Starting Planet
| |
| − | | A sign saying: Welcome to Origin! You can never leave™
| |
| − | | The sign names the planet, and also indicates that it is not possible to leave it by just launching off the surface during early gameplay, when the player has not collected any upgrades. May be a reference to the song by The Eagles: "Hotel California".
