About the game
The game

You wash up on a shore with nothing.

No tools, no map, nobody to ask. The ground is voxel and you can dig all of it. Buildings need real structural support or they come down. The wind in your sail is simulated, and it doesn't care where you were headed.

  • 22skills, and you level them by using them
  • 9biomes, with caves under all of them
  • 20 minfor a full day, and the night is different
  • 0quest markers. Workstations set the pace
Key features

Learn every craft by doing it

01 · Explore

Cross a world with no edge

Grassland, forest, beach, ocean, mountain, tundra, desert, mesa and swamp, each with its own weather, resources and animals. Cross it on foot, under a leaf glider off the nearest cliff, or in a balloon, steering by choosing the height whose wind goes your way.

02 · Sail

Take to the water

Real wind, live on your HUD, with a dead zone you have to learn. You start on a raft, earn a sailboat, then a longship. Weather drives the sea, so a crossing in a storm isn't the one you made at dawn.

Under the surface there are reefs, shoals of fish and sharks, and every river runs down from the mountains to the ocean.

03 · Build

Build something that stays up

Walls, floors, roofs, stairs, doors, windows, fences and pillars, all on a real support graph. Overhang too far with nothing underneath and the span comes down on you.

Repairing and demolishing are part of building. A collapse costs you materials and time, nothing more.

04 · Gather

Cut, dig and forge

Trees fall the way you cut them and break into logs where they land. The ground is voxel all the way to the bedrock: cut a staircase into a cliff, sink a mine shaft, flatten a hillside for a field.

Ore runs in veins you have to find and follow. Smelt it in a furnace, then forge it on an anvil, hammer in hand.

05 · Farm

Live off the land

Till, sow, water and harvest. Keep hens and cows, win a stray dog over, and feed a wild horse until it lets you ride. Fish against a real bite window and cook what you bring home.

A full belly makes you stronger. Hunger will never kill you.

06 · Fight

Fight with something you made

Blades from a dagger to a great sword, spears, bows, crossbows and whips. A raised shield turns blows aside, and on a steep enough slope it becomes a sled.

Things come out at night that you won't meet in daylight. And if you find an Emberstone, you can call fire out of it.

Get better by doing it

You don't spend points. A skill rises because you used it, and every level earns a tech point for the tech tree, where you work out what you're actually good at.
