The Planet Crafter is a space survival open world terraforming crafting game where creation and exploration meets survival.

Alone or with friends, you'll have to transform the ecosystem of a hostile planet to make it livable for humans. Survive, collect, build your base then create oxygen, heat and pressure to make a brand new biosphere.

"Welcome to your assigned planet. Your mission is to advance the terraformation process of this world. Generate 0², Heat and Pressure to do so. First, create a blue atmosphere".

The Planet Crafter throws you and your friends into a survival adventure in space, on a hostile planet where you see nothing but sand and dust. Without food or equipment, you'll have to explore this new world to find useful resources to survive the dangerous environment by building shelter and developing scientific machinery. As you progress on the planet, you will unveil its secrets and bring life to this barren land, turning it into a lively lush paradise with flora and creatures.

You'll need a base and all sorts of machines to make yourself at home, and be able to bring life on this planet!


Independent French video game development studio Miju Games is happy to announce that the official release date of The Planet Crafter is set for April 10, 2024 for $23.99.

From April 10-17, 2024, players will enjoy a 30% discount on the purchase of the game.

To celebrate its launch, The Planet Crafter is teaming up with Lightyear Frontier - released on March 19 - to offer an additional 10% discount for the combined purchase of both games via the "Outer Space Homestead Bundle" offer. 

The launch update of the game will feature a new multiplayer mode for up to 8 players, several new biomes and the introduction of a variety of animal species.

The community played a central role in the design of the game.
