What is IfSunSets?

This Early Access open-world survival RPG strands you on Luminora, an island shaped by pirate legends and a curse. By day, you gather resources, hunt, farm, fish, craft gear, explore, and build defenses; at night, you fight undead hordes alone or in online co-op. You can also build and sail pirate ships, claim islands, and fight naval battles.

For you if...

+you enjoy exploration-heavy survival crafting in a large open world
+you want base building tied to nightly horde defense
+you prefer playing survival games cooperatively with friends

Not for you if...

−you dislike gathering, crafting, and maintaining defensive bases
−you prefer linear adventures over open-world sandbox progression
−you want survival without recurring undead horde defenses
