About This Game

The plan was simple - the ship would wake you from your cryocapsule before you arrived at a potential new home. A planet for humanity to start a new life on. But when you awaken, you are already on the ground amongst the wreckage of your ship with no one else in sight. Stranded and surrounded only by debris, you start your journey under an unfamiliar sky.

The planet has a breathable atmosphere, which is a good start. Surprisingly, the area is already filled with a lush flora and fauna — some of which seem familiar, others completely alien. A few of the old seedlings from Earth must have survived the crash somehow, building a new kind of ecosystem.

What happened to the ship? How long have you been frozen in cryo since your arrival? You don't have the answers, but...for now, you have more pressing concerns.

You must find a way to survive and make this foreign planet your new home!

Survive

Face hunger, thirst, weather, and hostile fauna while the days pass by. Treat your wounds and keep your eyes open, some old machines still roam the landscape. The scorching sun above is unforgiving.

Explore

Discover various islands, underwater locations, old wrecks, and more. Find out what happened to your crew, where you are and what went so horribly wrong with your ship.

Craft and build

Harvest the resources of your new surroundings, refine materials and craft new tools. Find your way to the top of the food chain and build yourself a new home!

Sail the sea

Adjust the sails and follow the wind! Just like our ancestors sailed over the seas of our old home to discover new land.

Gather electricity

Scavenge wrecks and whats left of your old ship. Harness the power of nature and generate electricity to power advanced technology's.

Interact with the world

Interact with several different types of workstations in a unique and immersive way to refine resources and take your next step forward. Instead of navigating endless menus, you physically interact in-game with your items.

For example:

• Make cloth on a loom

• Split wood into planks

• Process raw hides into usable leather

• Smelt ore and forge it into tools

• Potter and fire clay into usable objects

...and more!

Team up with your friends

Challenge the world alone or explore, build, and survive with up to three friends by your side (4 in total).
