Planet in the Shadows - Released

The dungeoncrawler/rogue-like Planet in the Shadows has been released on Steam:

The gameplay is a fusion of multiple genres:

• Explore caves in a dungeon crawl style.
• Build your base with blocks, use a simple crafting system.
• Defend your base from the hostile environment.

Also features:

• Keyboard and mouse controls: use whichever you prefer.
• A tutorial stage to show you the ropes.
• Fight back by planting mines: the player has no traditional melee attacks.
• Regular checkpoints instead of permadeath.
• Simple, streamlined mechanics allow the player to focus on the action.
• The spirit of space exploration!

This is Planet in the Shadows - inspired by the dungeon crawler genre, this short game blends traditional spelunking with base building mechanics. The player is stranded on a hostile planet, urged to build a base and defend it against the awfully aggressive forces of the hostile environment.
