One life on tiny round worlds

Lumenauts

Earth has been silent for 300 years. Your scout ship crash-lands on Mossa, a small, round, mossy planet in a forgotten star system. Walk all the way around it, dig to its burning core, trade with the Sprouts and light a chain of beacons back home, while you grow from young explorer to wise elder.

What's inside

Small worlds, one long life

◐

Walk all the way around

Every planet is round. Gravity pulls to the core and the camera turns with you. The sun stands still while the planet turns: walk to the far side and night falls, with its own creatures.

▼

Dig to the core

"Down" is always the centre. Drill through moss, stone and crystal, past giant caverns full of life: glowing fungal hollows, crystal grottos, toxic bogs and ember vents of molten rock.

✦

Light is money

Gather Lumen from sunblooms. It pays for trades and crafting, and your lantern burns it underground. Die, and the light you dropped waits for you, but not for long.

⧗

One life, every age

Your explorer ages as you play: young and fast, strong as an adult, wise and slower when old. Your backpack, speed and looks change with the years.

⌂

Villages & creatures

Find Sprout villages with markets, healing springs and shrines. Meet grazers by day, hunters by night, and things that crawl and fly in the deep.
