About This Game

Two Voices Echo in Your Ears

When you wake, this is what the world has become: eternal night, endless darkness. You don't know what happened, but there's no time to ponder—hunger and various pressures rush over you. You need to survive first.
Meanwhile, two strange voices constantly echo in your ears:

Survive and Explore This Dark World

The core gameplay revolves around survival and exploration. You will explore a world composed of grid cells, collecting food and resources you find to fill your stomach and maintain the beacon's light—don't let it go out.
The entire world is shrouded in darkness. You must raise your torch, carefully illuminating the path ahead, slowly piecing together the shape of this world.
Darkness is eternal; it will engulf any area without light, including places you've already explored. To maintain and expand the existing faint light, you must continuously seek out and consume resources.

Hold Back the Monster Invasion

The darkness seems far from safe. Monsters attack periodically, keeping your nerves constantly on edge.
You must protect the safety of your little home!

Build and Expand

The game allows you to use resources to construct various buildings, which can help you survive better in this harsh world. As you progress, you will obtain blueprints for a variety of structures.
Build light sources, expand your home, and create more possibilities for survival!

Discover Strange Creatures

While out exploring, you find an egg. Let's hatch it and see...
Oh~ This little one is completely black and seems to be able to collect resources for me!

Farming

Use seeds to cultivate your own world! Wait for them to grow, harvest them, and let them become the building blocks of your little home in this dark wilderness.

Unique Art Style

A Final Word from the Developer
