When life on Earth becomes unsustainable, humans set off to find a new Earth-like planet to call home. The player takes on the role of an Exofarmer, a human capable of piloting one of the massive mechs equipped with seed shooters, water cannons, and harvesting vacuums. There’s no combat, and Lightyear Frontier is suitable for all skill levels and ages. The game allows players to tackle the trials of building a new homestead on an alien planet alone, or with up to three friends.
The picturesque planet of Lightyear Frontier experiences dynamic weather, and players must practice sustainable agriculture by replanting used resources. There are also ruins to explore, secrets to uncover, and unique wildlife to interact with. In Windows Central’s review of Lightyear Frontier, we expressed a desire for greater wildlife variety and shared that FRAME BREAK and Amplifier Games have shared a robust roadmap for Lightyear Frontier’s future.
In celebration of Lightyear Frontier’s launch, PC players on Steam can take advantage of the Choose Your Own Bundle deal and pair Lightyear Frontier with Miju Games’ Planet Crafter for even more open-world space crafting.
