Get instant access and start playing; get involved with this game as it develops.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Penkura is built on a strong modular foundation that allows us to easily and quickly add content to the project without making major changes to already implemented systems. 

This stability in development lets us incorporate the input of our playtesters rapidly and design a game that consistently satisfies its fans.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We intend to release three major updates 0.2.0 / 0.3.0 / 0.4.0, after that we will evaluate the game and provide information on a specific release date.

Please note that time between the major patches will vary, 0.2.0 taking the most time for release, and 0.4.0 the least.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Most of Penkura’s foundational systems are already complete. We are currently focused on further gameplay adjustments, balancing and extensive content creation.

Before the final release date and when we will feel that the game is ready, we intend to add co-op to Penkura. At that time, we plan to support the creation of player-owned servers. Afterward, we plan to add a dedicated server that will allow for the creation of at least ten player sub-servers.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Penkura has entered the beta phase and we are able to showcase primary features. 

Primary features such as an objective system, component creation, base construction system, bot control, and many smaller gameplay features are already in late-stage development and need to be tested by a larger audience.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price of the game will be adjusted with the amount of content added to the overall project.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Penkura has a preset development scenario with content already planned out from now until the final release. With the help of our players, we will be able to eliminate potential problems and improve upon gameplay features as development goes underway. Our lead designer can be contacted directly through the:
Penkura Discord channel - //discord.gg/2ukYHQm
or by visiting the ‘Contact Us’ page at //lionsart.pl/”

About This Game


Penkura seamlessly blends a top-down base building system with immersive first-person survival exploration. Easy to grasp yet challenging to master, the game employs classic death mechanics that strip you of equipment upon demise. To overcome this, players can craft custom robotic companions, essential for base construction, resource gathering, and safeguarding settlements.





It encourages players to choose from a variety of approaches through which to complete their goals. Players will find themselves becoming experts in areas entirely of their choosing. The intention is that, when the co-op is unveiled, players will find that the interaction of their unique skill sets with those of their peers creates capable and rewarding team gameplay.



Penkura offers a range of buildings, machines, bots, and items to construct using the "MMC" (Molecular Matter Converter) or "CCC" (Command Control Communication) for a top-down perspective to build your base. Take control of your bots to explore or perform repairs from the safety of your base. Unleash the potential of the CCC!



Dive into the immersive world of Penkura's campaign mode, offering rich adventures. While currently under development. In co-op mode, you'll have the ability to construct massive stations and explore additional maps outside of adventure mode for added challenges as you tackle the new world together.



Deep beneath Antarctic ice, a Polish research team uncovers an ancient temple, a portal to a captivating new world.

As Earth faces overpopulation and devastation, Project "Gemini" initiates the migration of humanity to this promising planet. For 41 years, pioneers traverse the singularity, until contact is mysteriously severed.

Now, as a mercenary, you embark on a perilous journey through the unstable gateway,
tasked with survival and uncovering the secrets of the unknown world beyond.
