About the Game

🧩 The Game

Earn. Build. Escape. Survive.
In this casual strategy-survival game, you’re stuck on a hostile planet where the only way out… is up.

Start from scratch and build a thriving home that earns while you plan. Buy upgrades, invest in passive income sources, and protect your stash from creatures that come crawling when the sun sets.

Each day is a chance to grow your empire. Each night, a test of how well you’ve prepared. Will your fortress hold? Will your wealth last? Will you earn your freedom?

💡 Key Features

  • 🪙 Earn and Upgrade – Build your income engine from humble beginnings to massive money machines.

  • 🏗️ Strategic Base-Building – Place, upgrade, and defend your assets with smart resource management.

  • 🚀 Escape the Planet – You’re not just building to survive. You’re building to leave.

  • 🌱 Casual Vibes, Real Strategy – Simple mechanics, deep choices. Perfect for quick sessions or long marathons.

🧑‍🎨 The Art

Everything in the game is carefully hand-drawn by the team and created by the team. From the music, the sound effects, to game design, the enemies, to the levels, the code, and everything in between is built from scratch by us! (yes, even voice acting!)
