About Lumencraft

✦ AI summary

Lumencraft is a top-down rogue-like shooter where you drill through procedurally generated underground caverns, build defensive bases, and fight off enemy swarms to harvest precious Lumen crystals for humanity's survival. It stands out with its fully destructible pixel-perfect terrain, satisfying digging mechanics, tower defense elements, and multiple play modes including a story campaign, custom map editor, and local co-op.

Lumencraft: A Top-Down Rogue-Like Shooter with Base Building & Tower Defense



Lumencraft is a unique combination of a top-down shooter and base building game with tower defense elements. Enter procedurally generated levels with a fully destructible environment to build your base, dig some tunnels and find the precious Lumen - humanity's only chance for survival.

BECOME THE SAVIOR OF MANKIND
For two centuries the remnants of humanity struggle to survive without electricity and light. But there is a spark of hope. In 2221 the survivors find Lumen – a crystal of high energy potency that may be the last chance for mankind. Scouts, brave miners, established an underground settlement and voyage into the dark to reach the nearby Lumen deposits. But the darkness consumed them, as the subterranean caves and tunnels hold as much danger as salvation. Now it’s time for you to step into the endless shadows…

DRILL AND SHOOT YOUR WAY TO SALVATION
The lightless underground holds swarms of enemies that will raid your base. Illuminate the gloomy tunnels with your weapons and turrets in a struggle for survival. Drill new paths and shafts to reach valuable resources or blast walls and your foes.

EXPLORE A FULLY DESTRUCTIBLE ENVIRONMENT
With a lot of effort and a set of original algorithms, 2Dynamic Games have transformed the open-source Godot Engine into a completely new tool. This allows every bit of terrain (pixel, as we used to call them) to be destroyed, and maps to be painted as if in a drawing program.

YOUR WAY TO PLAY
Lumencraft offers several game modes to suit your gameplay style. With a 27-mission campaign experience the full narrative of humanity’s struggle for survival. Jump into procedurally generated maps and fight in a true roguelike fashion. Or maybe create your own level in the editor, or try out what the creators and Steam Workshop users have prepared for you. Custom game types (e.g. tower defence, action, survival or mix of them) with user-defined starting technologies/upgrades and goals allow you to test your skills as a scout in any conditions. Invite your friend to play locally or using Steam Remote play and dive into the darkness together.

MAP EDITOR
Easily create stunning maps with moldable terrain and a variety of objects to choose from. Invite friends to play in your custom map and define game types, starting technologies, upgrades, and goals.

We hope the community will create many amazing maps for the Steam Workshop.

KEY FEATURES
  • Multiple game modes - a story campaign, custom maps created by the developers and the community or procedurally generated levels. The choice is yours!
  • Defending the underground settlement by direct combat and the use of diversified turrets.
  • Highly efficient and satisfying digging mechanics (just listen to the sweet sound of crushed rocks and Lumen).
  • Explosive weapons. Yes, we have dynamite.
  • Dynamic lights and pixel-perfect interaction with a fully destructible terrain.
  • Dread atmosphere created through an impactful sound design and a unique 2Dynamic lighting system.
  • Realistic simulations. Just look at the lava!
  • Play with your friends in co-op mode either using Steam Remote Play or locally on a shared screen :)

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Lumencraft divides players between those who find it a relaxing, enjoyable drilling experience with solid art direction and active development, and those who feel it becomes tedious and grindy with clunky controls, slow progression, and a frustrating random upgrade system. While some consider it a must-buy, others struggle to recommend it due to repetitive gameplay and insufficient rewards relative to the grind required.

Controls are clunky. The gameplay is repetitive, and the exploration is not really satisfactory.

Honestly, I can’t recommend the game. The idea is good and the art direction is nice, but after 5 missions, I was mostly bored. The progression is way too slow, especially for such a long campaign. There’s also too little Lumen for the amount required. The lab upgrade system is frustrating too, since the upgrades are random and many of them feel useless. Overall, the game just feels too slow and grindy.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
