GAME WORLD · BACKSTORY
Elyra: A new home after the emergency landing
Fifty people survive an emergency landing on the alien planet Elyra. The Emergency Landing Module (ELM) becomes the starting point for a colony that must gradually become self-sufficient.
The beginning: a mission gone wrong
The mission begins on Earth. After the larger vessel is destroyed and the Destiny 2 is severely damaged, the ELM detaches and lands on Elyra. The coordinates of Earth are lost. This is narrative background, not a promise of playable spacecraft missions.
Fifty survivors – limited supplies
The colony begins with 50 settlers and emergency provisions carried from the ship. The ELM initially provides a vital storage and supply hub. Local buildings and infrastructure gradually take over.
Elyra: 2 × 2 kilometres
The current map covers 2 × 2 km, an area of 4 km². This is the official scale of the initial game world. Larger maps and multiplayer are not advertised as available or committed features.
From the ELM to a self-sufficient colony
Settlers gather resources, physically carry materials and build the first workplaces and essential infrastructure. Grain growing and harvesting are already implemented; further food processing and more complex supply systems remain in development.
The wider story – a future vision
The lost Earth coordinates and mysteries of the universe form the background for a potential later galactic storyline. The initial Early Access focus remains single-player planetary colony building.
