From an uninhabited planet in space to an ecosystem full of life.
In Planetary Life you will be able to shape a planet in the purest Sandbox Simulation style, playing with its mountains, seas and even its climate, to create the perfect habitat to harbor life.

PLANETS

Control a planet with the multiple tools available. Let the tectonic plates shape the mountains and seas, modify the climate, the heat of the nucleus, the volcanic activity, the gases of the atmosphere, etc... until shaping the home of your creatures.

CREATURES AND EVOLUTION

Add creatures and evolve them from simple organisms to intelligent beings. Design and expand them looking for the balance of a perfect ecosystem.
Help them or let them fight for survival on their own.

GEOSPHERE AND ATMOSPHERE

Change core heat and volcanic activity to shape your planet terrain through volcanoes.
Manipulate rainfalls, cloud and surface albedo to change the climate.

ECOSYSTEMS

Build ecosystems. Maintain the balance between fauna and flora. Do not let them break the harmony and avoid the extinction of species.

CIVILIZATIONS

When your creatures reach sufficient intelligence they will organize themselves into tribes and later flourish into civilizations. Manage and help them in the battle for technology to conquer space.

Demo update v0.5.7

Hi everyone!

Here a new update of Planetary Life demo, and this time yes! This will be the last one unless I have to do some hot fixes related to bugs or balancing.

No more new features, no more additions until the game gets released :-)

In this new update you will find the following:

New features

Added Observer option. This mode is ideal to leave the game running automatically. Instead of stay in a fixed point because of the inaction of the player, it will move the camera automatically focusing on major events. This option is ideal for long run streaming as well.
In screen stand-alone message for most recent notification.
Added individual mutation rate parameter for plants.

Changes

Now vegetarians will eat plants and reduce the amount them, with a possibility of remove all vegetation in the area.
Nutritional values of plants affect the hungry levels of creatures.
Moved a bit away the planets ring to avoid being to close to the global camera.

Bugs fixed

Fixed bug causing the game to freeze.
Fixed bug applying wrong texture to creatures sprite animation.
Fixed bug causing wild fire events to spawn in areas with no vegetation or water.

Also, here a summary of most important changes between version 0.5.0 and this update (ignoring previously mentioned changes, bug fixed and other minor stuff):

Changed how evolution menu works: now you can do many changes, but each change will have a cost. At the end, the price of all changes will be subtracted from your energy.
Added undo last change button to creature/plant editor to undo step by step all done changes and also to avoid players getting stuck.
Improved rain effect.
Mutated creatures will have a 25% chance to get adapted their temperature to the new location.
Improved atmosphere, showing a bluer sky and stars at night.
Now mutation rate artifact can change to decreasing the rate.
Now reproduction rate artifact can change to decreasing the rate.
Added artifact to change humidity in the area.
Added mouth noises to creatures.
Added proper omnivore, carnivore and vegetarian separated plots for Stats screen.

ENJOY the demo!!!
And see you soon when the game gets released in Early Access!
