BUDDY is the player's companion, helping to complete floors. They take litter from your Litter Tank for Celz and Ammo, as well as Artifacts for Celz. He has multiple set-up points across the floor. When the requirement for the floors quest is complete, you can plug BUDDY in the lift to move onto the next floor. BUDDY'S model is vaguely based around an Orion Viking CTV-556 (80s/90s era specifically). The TVS body itself is a dark brown wood with two crooked antenna on the top hand right side, while on the right side of the TVS body is a large grey suction tube. The screens frame is a dirty/rusted beige featuring three grey turnable knobs with a black speaker underneath. BUDDY'S screen is turquoise with a white TV static effect, they have two misshapen pale eyes and a crooked smile, both capable of animation depending on gameplay. The screen is cracked into four un-even pieces, and the "facial" features are done with a very light (almost white) turquoise and black outline to create a glowing effect. He speaks in a warped voice capable of rapidly switching between pitches and tones. Personality BUDDY is a goofy and comedic character, constantly cracking jokes he laughs at himself and shouting weird phrases. At first sight, BUDDY is over the top and has a care free personality. However, he can be irritable to the crew; Yet, Ranger says you can't hate him, and he can cheer up others. This shows he's friendly and affectionate. BUDDY is also mischievous, randomly disappearing on people. Underneath the humor, BUDDY is a bit uncanny and spooky. He constantly switches behavior and has an eerie feeling to him overall. BUDDY also is one with cleanliness, trying to keep everything organized and keeping artifacts in pristine condition for Refurbished Antiques. He's also a motivational person, with quotes like "Let's get this show on the road, shall we?" and "Scrub-a-dub soldiers!"1
