Lone Mining Engineer

This is a planet escape survival game combining automated base building and FPS combat. Return to Earth two ways: survive 10 days by fighting enemy hordes and unlocking stronger weapons, or mine resources, build production lines, and complete a spaceship. You can pursue both paths at once.

This is a planetary escape survival game that combines automated base-building with FPS shooter elements.

In the near future, Earth's resources have already been depleted, and humanity is facing a severe energy crisis. In search of resources, the Second Survey Team heads to a planet aboard a spacecraft. But during the descent to the planet, the ship is destroyed. You are the only survivor. The spacecraft is lost, leaving you with no way to return to Earth. The rescue team will arrive in 10 days. Meanwhile, groups of hostile creatures are gathering around the base.

■ There Are Two Ways to Return to Earth

Survive — Keep fighting off attacks until rescue arrives.

Escape — Build a spacecraft using the resources of this planet and return home on your own.

You are free to choose which path to pursue. You can also work toward both at the same time.

■ Gameplay Flow

1. Craft Weapons and Fight Off the Attacks

Craft weapons at the workbench and head into battle. Each time you defeat the incoming enemy forces, more powerful weapons are unlocked.

2. Mine, Process, and Send — Build Your Production Line

Mine ore with drills and process it into parts using fabrication machines. Connect them with cables and automatically send the completed parts back to the base. Secure large amounts of resources and parts by automating your production lines.

3. Survive or Escape on Your Own

Survive for 10 days and wait for rescue, or complete the spacecraft and take off on your own— the choice of how to return to Earth is yours.
