Adaptory - a survival and base-building adventure set on a deserted planetoid lost in uncharted space. After crash-landing far from home, you’re tasked with keeping four unique and procedurally generated explorers alive as you search for a way back. Balancing realistic physics and chemistry systems, you’ll delve into tasks such as managing temperature, constructing automated facilities, and refining power sources—from solar arrays to steam generators—to sustain your fledgling community.
As you excavate beneath the planet’s surface, unexpected challenges like meteor showers, solar flares, and earthquakes will test both your strategic base development and the interpersonal dynamics among your crew. Each character brings their own skills, opinions, and personal stories, which are revealed through lively conversations and diary entries that help piece together a larger science-fiction narrative crafted by award-winning writer Cassandra Tse.
Emphasizing emergent gameplay and deep simulation, Adaptory offers a unique experience every time you play, where survival hinges not only on technical prowess but on adapting to unpredictable events and nurturing relationships. Will you be able to maintain hope, rebuild your shattered ship, and unlock the mysteries of this enigmatic world?

Our new animator Kat did an amazing job animating CHARLI and I can’t wait to get more of her animations into the game 😊We’ve also rewritten the entire introduction and tutorial sequence in Alpha 13.

We’ve tested the tutorial in many different scenarios, and hopefully all of the bugs are ironed out, but please let me know if it breaks!Mysterious alien ruins and artefactsWhat have we found?While the planetoid you landed on initially appeared to be deserted, as you dig dow...
