Indie open world sandbox survival roleplaying game developed by Pathea Games, with terrain editor for vehicle and object creation, CPU primitives for scene assembly.
Planet Explorers is an open-world, sandbox survival game with roleplaying elements developed and published by the independent studio Pathea Games. The game notably features a robust terrain editor, allowing players to manipulate the terrain and environment with great flexibility and detail.
In terms of gameplay, Planet Explorers casts the player as a member of the first colony ship sent to the planet Maria. Upon arriving, however, the player's ship crash lands, leaving the colonists to fend for themselves on an unfamiliar alien world. The game challenges players to collect resources, craft weapons and structures, manage starvation and HP, and defend against dangerous creatures.
What sets Planet Explorers apart from other games in the survival genre is its extensive terrain editor and creative toolkit. Players can raise or lower terrain and paint textures in real time to create anything from rolling hills to soaring mountain peaks. The building system leverages CPU primitives that can be arranged into a wide variety of structures from cottages to castles. Players can also import models, textures, and scripts created in 3D modeling software to further expand construction options.
In addition to building, the game allows players to create their own storylines, populate areas with unique NPCs through its advanced AI module, script customized quests and game events using Lua, and design their own playable adventure levels. With its deep creative tools, the game offers nearly limitless opportunities for budding world builders and game makers.
