You are an employee for a space delivery company, on one of your routine trips out into space, a meteor strikes your ship and sends you plummeting into a unknown planet. You wake up with your ship, in clear disrepair. You have to find 30 ship parts in 30 days or your life support system will fail. You look around and see some odd red thing, it’s springs up into life, and spits out a red seed. You pluck it out of the ground, it’s a creature. You call it pikmin.
