Sci-fi exploration adventure Lifeless Planet has finally landed on Steam Early Access after two years since it blasted off from Kickstarter. Creator David Board calls it ”an ode to the old-school adventure games”.
It’s a low-gravity platform game with jet-pack propulsion for long distances. We solve puzzles and other noodle-scratchers to figure out what happened to an abandoned space colony.
We play an astronaut on a one-way trip to a life-bearing world outside our solar system, only to discover they’re not the first human presence on the now barren planet.
”For me, ‘LIFELESS PLANET’ is an ode to the old-school adventure games and classic sci-fi stories I enjoyed as a kid. I hope I have delivered something different from what you usually get from the big studios and publishers today,” said Board. Lifeless Planet achieved its goal of $8,500 back in late October 2011, and actually more than doubled it.
Now after two years the third-person action adventure finally touches down on Steam Early Access.
