https://npixia.itch.io/planet-escape


You wake up and remember that your space ship had a power failure and has crash-landed on an unknown planet.
You must descend into your ship's hull and manually override the backup power. Then return to the navigation console where you started your journey to escape.
Beware, the crash landing has attracted the attention of the locals.

Can you make it out alive?

  • Explore a large, randomly generated spaceship
  • Wield weapons with stats and descriptions unique to every run
  • Fight hostile creatures that have come to investigate the crash
  • Be careful not to destroy your own ship in the process

This game was created for 7DRL 2023 Game Jam.
Development: https://mastodon.social/@npixia


Technical Notes

This game is an overhaul mod for valo, a rogue-like engine and sandbox game. The Valo engine is a c++ roguelike engine that provides a Lua API for rendering, tile based world simulation, item templating and interaction, a generic "actor" object for monsters and environment objects, and more. 

What was used: Rendering, map & tile simulation, user interface (inventory, etc), built-in lua libraries

What was not used (implemented during 7DRL): All content (weapons, items, monsters, tiles, space ship world generator, sprites), game logic (win/death conditions), monster AI.
