About This Game

SURVIVE ON VERDARA

No Man's Mines is a survival crafting game I'm making on my own.

You crash on Verdara with almost nothing. Pick up sticks and stones, make some tools, get a fire going and find somewhere to build.

The planet is completely round. You can walk all the way around it, and you can dig into almost any part of it.

DIG ANYWHERE

Grab a shovel and dig.

Make a quick hole for some ore, dig tunnels under your base or keep going and make your own cave. Copper and iron can be found underground, with some deposits visible on the surface too.

BUILD AND SURVIVE

Chop trees, smelt ore and make better tools as you go.

Build a base from wood and later stone, cook food, keep your hunger and thirst under control and put down a bedroll in case things go wrong.

Just don't stand under a falling tree.

FIGHT OR SNEAK

Dinosaurs, goblins and orcs live around the planet.

Enemy camps have guards, archers and loot to take. You can fight your way in or crouch down and try to deal with them quietly.

Every few nights a raid begins and enemies come after your base. They'll attack walls and break their way through if they can't reach you.

LEVEL UP BY PLAYING

Mining, woodcutting, sneaking, archery and melee skills improve as you use them.

Your character also has a tech tree where you choose what to unlock next, including tools, building parts and crafting stations.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS

Play alone or with up to 3 friends.

You share the same world, including anything you dig, build, cut down or loot.

There's proximity voice chat, text chat and optional friendly fire.

Probably turn that last one off.

THE DEMO

The demo goes up to level 5 and covers the early part of the game, including copper progression, building, enemy camps, raids and co-op.
I am planning on adding more content and space ship building, this way you can travel to other planets as well.

If you play it, I'd like to hear what you think. You can talk to me or to other fellow players in the community tab.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This game is developed by a solo developer. To ship a project of this scope in a reasonable timeframe, some assets are created with the help of generative AI tools. This includes parts of the user interface, the game logo and store capsule images(edited with AI). All core gameplay systems are built by hand. AI is used only as a support tool for visual assets and coding, and all generated content is reviewed and edited before use.
