The world will generate an amount of the different biomes listed bellow with different train properties, including things such as height of terrain, and rainfall. Once generated the player can choose which of the landable biomes they wish to play, each offering a different experience of play. | During the world generation process, a world is created using seeds.

During the world generation process, a world is created using seeds. Each world is randomly generated and will consist of several different Biomes. The world will generate an amount of the different biomes listed bellow with different train properties, including things such as height of terrain, and rainfall. Once generated the player can choose which of the landable biomes they wish to play, each offering a different experience of play.
Landable biomes
Arid shrub land
A dry region, but not dry enough to become a true desert. Open plains with grasses and bushes give way to scattered groves of trees. Plants are hearty and there is a moderate density of animals.
Season, Temperature and Plant Growth Cycle
- Coming Soon!
Desert
A very dry, hot area which supports little life.
Season, Temperature and Plant Growth Cycle
- Coming Soon!
Temperate forest
A friendly biome dominated by forests of deciduous trees interspersed with fertile clearings. Many species of animals move around in the trees and on the plains.
Season, Temperature and Plant Growth Cycle
- Coming Soon!
Tropical rain forest
A thick, moist jungle. Dense overgrowth and aggressive wildlife make construction and survival difficult.
Season, Temperature and Plant Growth Cycle
- Coming Soon!
Boreal forest
Northern forests of coniferous trees. Despite the harsh winters, boreal forests sustain a diverse population of small and large animals.
Season, Temperature and Plant Growth Cycle
- Coming Soon!
Tundra
These mostly-frozen plains bear almost no trees and little vegetation. There are a few small animals interspersed with large herds of migratory grazers and their predators. Growing periods vary between May-August, June-July and never.
Season, Temperature and Plant Growth Cycle
- Coming Soon!
Unlandable biomes
Ice sheet
The surface is covered with sheets of ice which can be kilometers thick. There is no access to soil or rock, so there are no plants. The only animals seen here are migrating to somewhere else - or badly lost.
Ocean
Open ocean. Great for fish - not so great for you.
