Our take on MewnBase
The defining structure is survival through base upkeep on a barren planet: air, water, power, food, darkness, and storms turn each expedition into a preparation problem.
What is MewnBase?
MewnBase is a 2D exploration and survival game about a space cat stranded on an uncharted planet without enough supplies.
Scavenge for food and materials, then use a workbench to construct a base with modules such as airlocks and rainwater collectors. Research artifacts to gain crafting recipes and technology upgrades. Base management includes maintaining breathable air, producing enough power for connected modules, and storing clean water for plants. Day and night cycles affect visibility and preparation, while thunderstorms and sandstorms create additional hazards. Vehicles provide transport across longer distances. The game also includes community translations for German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and Turkish.
