About This Game

Incremental, top-down mining game set in a quiet, fading universe. Feed the Beacon, expand its light, and carry the Ignition Protocol to its final stage.

Mine modular asteroids to gather resources.

Feed the Beacon and expand the Light.

Explore the Darkness and haul asteroids to safety

Let the resources flow

Features

  • Physical zero-g movement - Everything keeps its momentum; no asteroid is too heavy to push.

  • Modular asteroids - Split massive asteroids into manageable fragments.

  • Open space - Move without a speed limit and build without a grid.

  • Physical automation - Feed whole asteroids into mining platforms, then chain ore relays together to carry the extracted resources.

  • Meaningful upgrades - Improve existing equipment or unlock new tools that change how you mine, haul, and explore.
