Hunter is returning home safely from an unknown planet that the player has crash
landed on. For the player to be able to do so he needs protection against the hostile
aliens living on the planet. This protection is attained by gathering di erent elements
and raw materials and combining these, making a new type of protective suit of armour

content to be considered educational and entertaining. The report contains a discussion
covering these aspects and also covers several ideas for future development that are in
