About This Game

Starnded: Gardens of the Rubellite is a first-person survival RPG set on Sara-376c - a hostile, pink wilderness 70 light-years from Earth, and humanity’s final attempt at survival.

Before disaster struck, Earth’s nations launched one desperate mission: send a million capable people to a habitable world. With the old systems collapsing, survival became the only currency. Those who built the colony ships, cryopods, and life-support systems earned a single reward - a frozen ticket to a new world.

Your cryopod opens the moment you start the game.

Those who woke up before you began carving out a foothold.

They built camps, scavenged safe zones, and pieced together crude labs. Yet Sara-376c is nothing like the world they were promised - it’s alive, ancient, and already claimed by something far older than humanity.

The Rubellite biome is a vivid, alien landscape - forests and shrubland washed in pink and purple tones, with plants that glow faintly in the dark.

Human traces: survivor camps, abandoned labs, scattered corpses, discarded gear.

Alien traces: weathered structures and carvings suggesting an intelligent civilization long gone.

No guns - only movement, skill, and improvised weapons.

Craft from scavenged tech, scrap, and native resources.

Encounter creatures unlike anything on Earth - unpredictable, aggressive, and territorial.

Construct modular bases to store resources and protect your loot.

Set up near resources or strategic points of interest.

Reclaim abandoned tech from early survivors - or take it from rivals.

Survive alone, ally with others, or betray them.

Multiplayer and singleplayer - play with friends and strangers - or alone.
