About This Game

Build. Fly. Survive.

A homemade flying fortress. A planet full of trouble. Every part makes a difference.

Plander is a 2D physics-based action adventure about building a machine and finding out what it can survive. Start with a command core, assemble your vehicle piece by piece, and take it across a frontier of procedural planets filled with rough terrain and hostile machines.

Build a machine that’s yours

Combine wheels, directional thrusters, balloons, armor, guns, and utility modules into your own contraption. Keep it light and nimble, or build a heavily armed flying fortress. Where you place each part affects your weight, balance, and handling. Getting off the ground is only the first test.

Choose your next frontier

Pick contracts on a branching expedition map and adapt your build to the journey ahead. Drive across lowlands, fly over mountain ridges, explore cave networks, and cross deep water. Gravity, momentum, and buoyancy make each environment a different engineering challenge.

Bring it home. Mostly.

Fight ground patrols, flying attackers, and heavy industrial enemies as your mounted weapons engage nearby threats. Protect your command core, watch your fuel, and keep moving when parts take damage. Reach field-service checkpoints to repair, refuel, and rebuild, then spend collected minerals at technology shops to unlock and improve your equipment.

Clear planets to open new routes, carry your surviving machine onward, and take on tougher contracts. Your next idea is always one rebuild away.
