About This Game

Go on a space adventure, build relationships, and play mini-games along the way.

Shivaliva is a sky-pirate puzzle adventure. Islands float over the Stardust, and everything you do on them is a minigame: the jobs that pay you, the card tables, the stations on your ship, and the fights.

Work the islands. Arrive with nothing. Mine ore, split logs, wash dishes at the inn, try your luck at Poker and Coin Drop, and climb the gym's Skirmish ladder. Spend what you earn on clothes, a hot meal, a room at the inn, and one day a ship of your own.

Crew a ship. Sign on with the ferry's crew, or hire your own, and cross the Stardust. Stoking, Navigation, Gunnery, Carpentry and Venting keep her flying, and raiders keep it interesting: sky battles, grapples, boardings.

Get to know the islanders. They keep their own days, notice what you do, pass word about you around, and each has plenty to say about it. Make friends, sign them onto your crew, court them, and maybe find a sweetheart. Bring them gifts, and mind who sees you.

Face the Ordeals. Out across the Stardust, islands hide Ordeals: beast guardians, and a master waiting at the end. Clear them and you hold the bearings to an island nobody has charted.

Make it yours. A character creator, outfits and dyes, and a trophy case for everything you've done.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

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

Character dialogue and other in-game text were written with the help of AI tools. Nothing is generated by AI while you play.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Shivaliva includes romance between adult characters. You can court the islanders, kiss, and spend the night with a sweetheart at the inn; the scene fades to black and nothing is shown. Nothing is sexually explicit. New characters start in their underwear until they buy clothes. The tavern serves ale. Poker and Coin Drop are played for in-game gold only, with no real money involved. Combat is cartoonish and bloodless: a defeat is a faint. Some dialogue may include mild swearing.
