Video Description
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I told you all that I have installed the Android 14 beta 4 build on my Google Pixel 7 Pro here and in today's video I want to show you the new space exploring easter egg that was just added.

For those who may not be familiar, Google has included secret easter eggs in its Android releases all the way back to version 2.3 Gingerbread. For a while, these were just very simple secrets that mostly consisted of images or basic animations.
But with the launch of Android 5.0 Lollipop the company began adding basic games. With this first one being a homage to Flappy Bird. Then in Android 7.0 they had a cat game that was similar to Neko Atsume.
Now with the launch of Android 14, the easter egg has gone into space with a exploration style game.
We can find this new easter egg by first opening up the Settings application.
Find the About Phone section down here at the bottom.
And then we need to tap the Android Version option multiple times until we see the Android 14 logo.
Now we're going to tap and hold on this new logo until the stars begin zoom by.
Here is where the space exploration begins.
This little thing right here is the ship we're controlling.
And we can guide it in any direction we want.
There aren't any missions to complete here as we're just meant to explore.
We can see the data read-outs here giving us details about our thrusters, velocity numbers, and the coordinates in space.
If you play this long enough you will eventually come across some stars.
And then you can look around to find out if there are any celestial bodies orbiting around it.

Finally !
They brought back playable games since Android 6 !
right! this one is great for those who like exploration games too
@@ExplainingAndroid I hope in the final version they'll add actual HUD in the game instead of debug-like stuff
@@maricthehedgehog that would be a really nice addition!
@@ExplainingAndroidalso, I noticed that the top text reads KitKat which is a reference to Android 4.4 KitKat and it probably points out one of the planets or stars, maybe the other planets and stars will be named after the previous Android versions (Lollipop, marshmallow, Oreo etc...), That would be cool !
@@maricthehedgehog I think you're right about that. I'd be curious to see what names other people are getting
0,0 coordinates are not the main goal, its also pretty impossible to hit exact 0,0 coords (I wasted a lot of time on this)
Its basically the location of the star. Its a very big star, so you would meet the star anyway before hitting 0,0
The "bodies" are orbiting the star positoned at 0,0, they are planets. To get to a body, you have to follow the blue lines (not red lines). These are circular orbit lines, and eventually you'll hit a planet.
Its a bit difficult to land at first as the spaceship just bounces off due to its high velocity, but if you keep trying you'll land. After landing you have to wait for some time till the spaceship stabilises, and at that point the data about the new planet will pop up. (If you land in a planet you've already landed before then it will appear as "LND: " above the coordinates.)
Thanks , this helped me
The red lines represent the gradient of the celestial bodies gravitational field. If you get within the boundary of this field and remain near motionless you will gravitate towards the body.
I only have 1 planet :(
Aaah thanks. I had found my star but felt like there was gonna be more to it but couldn't find anything
Is it just the 7 bodies you land on? I landed on all 7 of 'em. Just wondering if there's more.
Best android easter egg ever. That's like my favorite game now
i couldn't agree more! it's so much more thought out than the other easter eggs

I got a star called Taurus Plus (UNC-31023)
CLASS: F
RADIUS: 1383
MASS: 4.25e+09
BODIES: 0/1
Its a white circle that takes up around 80% of my screen when im in the middle and it has 2 white waves (white squiggly lines) that travel around all the way around it in opposite directions. Its located at 0,0.
my device is a samsung s23 ultra.
@@firstclass000I have an a54 5g
@@Furious_virus do you have the same star as me?
I got this star too! And ig it's in the Andromeda galaxy? Also I found all 7 bodies here!
My star is Lollipop Ultima (UDC-40524), and I've gotten all 4 planets orbiting it.
that's amazing! congrats!
how long did it take you?
Hello my friend. Could you bring in one of your videos a root alternative called KernelSU, and also the installation procedure on Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro devices? Thank you for your attention and I wish the channel success
yea, I would be happy to look into this app and root solution! I'll need to take some time later today to look into it, though.
do you know of any benefits kernelsu has over the magisk method?
I had the feeling that Tim Cook is speaking here.
I had a planet in my solar system whose gravitational field overlapped with the path of another planet. I just did not have the patience to see if they would attract each other. But my guess is they would and if you let the simulation run for long enough eventually everything will collide into the centre of the solar system.
that's cool to think about. I wish you had waited long enough. you're making me want to test that out!

Fascinated.
I don't know how to change my system
Find and land on all planets.
Leave and go back, a new solar system to explore
Just finished my game.
Star: Draco Plus (UDC-40506)
Found all three planets.
holy crap! congrats, man!
how long did that take you
@@ExplainingAndroid Took about an hour. I wasn't in a rush and was exploring the way gravity was implemented. The game is structured and sandboxed. There are hard limits to just how far your space ship can travel. Nothing happened after finding the last planet and I did try to reset the game to get a different system, didn't happen.
I completed it! Would love to show a ss but i dont know how to do that in the comments
I got all 10
What do u mean?
@@MrYTJoe all 10 bodies
@SamarthVermaSam The thing is I just see 7. And what does it means with "bodies"?
And only 8 bodies in my galaxy, does a person get only one galaxy to play with? 😅
@@MrYTJoeplanets are called bodies
It's bounded in a circle
it really is!
I saw sun 4:47
where at?!?!!?
25
The game doesent work
which phone are you trying to play the game on?
