Game Description:

Become a Harvester and travel the universe in your Mothership. Visit planets to harvest food and resources for your civilization. Rise in the ranks and become the Supreme Harvester. Stay alive at all costs. Survive and progress in this pixel art, sci-fi, survival game set in a distant future.

The Story So Far…

For millennia the ancient race known as the Harvesters have ruled the galaxies. They have darkened the skies of a thousand worlds with the shadows of their mighty spacecraft, known as “Motherships”. The ravenous Harvesters use their “Landers” to descend upon terrified worlds and harvest all the resources they could find. Thriving and living on Ash, the Harvesters use their mighty beam weapons to incinerate matter, transforming it to Ash for their consumption.

Now the Harvesters have come to Terra. Terra was once populated with an ancient race called Humans, now all that remains is a lush and beautiful planet teaming with living creatures and untold resources to harvest.

Become A Supreme Harvester

Take on the role of a Harvester, new to the world, and venture out to distant planets to make a name for yourself among the ranks of your fellow Harvesters. Upgrade your Mothership and Lander with the credits and crystals you earn from selling what you harvest abroad to the wealthy citizens of your homeworld.

Become a Supreme Harvester by traveling the known universe in your Mothership to harvest food, collect creatures, and mine for resources all to take back to your ravenous civilization in exchange for Crystals and Credits. Earn Harvester Points for everything you do and rise in the ranks of the Harvesters to become the Supreme Harvester.

Deploy Your Lander

Deploy your Lander to the surface of planets like Terra (Earth), Luna (Moon), and others to explore, harvest, collect, construct outposts, and, when there is nothing left to harvest, arvestroform (terraform) the surface of the planets into the likeness of your homeworld Arvestro to expand your civilizations reach into the stars and for the glory of your civilization.

Harvest Everything

By day or by night, maneuver your Lander into position over an unsuspecting resource and claim what’s rightfully yours.

Ash, The Spice Of Life

Ash is the most coveted resource of your civilization. Ash is the lifeblood that runs through the very heart of your race, it is a delicacy that is treasured by the highest ranks of the Harvesters, and it is worth a ton of Credits. Use every tool in your arsenal to convert resources to ash for harvesting, fill your Lander with as much as it will carry, then return back to your homeworld of Arvestro to sell it all to rake in the credits from the rich to repair and upgrade your Mothership, your Lander, and gain additional options for terraforming/constructing outposts.


Game Features:

  1. Harvesting: Harvesting is the bread and butter of Day Of The Harvesters. You’ll venture onto planets’ surfaces to harvest anything and everything, from cows to horses to trees, and yes, even to the very ground itself with your trusty harvesting beam.
  2. Arvestroforming (alien terraforming, transforming other planets into the image of the Harvester homeworld Arvestro): this process is accomplished by planting “Motherplants” into charred soil. Once planted, the motherplants grow to maturity and then shoot tendrils through the nearby ground to transform it into Arvestrian ground. Motherplants can be supercharged for a short period of time by blasting them with Plasma radiation from the Lander’s Beam Cannon Plasma Firing Mode.
  3. Mining: this is accomplished by discovering veins of ore under the surface of planets and blasting into them with the Lander’s Mining Laser to harvest the raw ore for sale or further processing to be used in construction of outpost buildings.
  4. Building: this is accomplished using the Lander’s Materializer Ray to transfer raw resources such as Matter, Organics, Liquid, Plasma, and Etherial down to the surface and rearranging them into useful structures. This is the process used to construct outposts on foreign worlds.
  5. Survival: your Mothership in orbit and the Lander both have Hull Strength and Energy levels you’ll need to maintain in order to continue your expedition. Protect both at all costs to continue your harvesting adventure among the stars. You’ll also need to continually consume Ash to survive, as that is the food of the Harvester civilization. Use any means at your disposal to convert whatever you find into Ash for consumption to maintain optimal health.
  6. Combat: on your harvesting adventure you’ll face various hostile creatures and their constructions. Deal with these to continue your harvesting adventure by using an ever expanding arsenal of weapons to eliminate any threats in your path.
