Foreword
I wrote this guide in 10 minutes because I feel that a game this good is way too obscure. I couldn't find any of this online, so I've decided to beat the game and write a guide myself.
When I find the necessary time I'll improve the formatting, add some images, and maybe write in detail where each item can be found. Until then just remember that a poor guide is better than no guide at all. Enjoy.

Do you have to "not die once" to achieve the surviving achievements? Or you can load a save if you died and get the achievement?

Thank you for all details

If you are the Captain (tried and tested) you can achieve all the endings. Not sure if an alien take over a mega coporation but from memory, still works.

Nice guide. I may just point out that your survival hint does not work for all difficulties and races (food will still decrease for the Alien, although slower).
