Release Date: March 19, 2024 Early Access
Adventure game with farming elements, in which we find ourselves on an alien planet. In Lightyear Frontier we take control of a mech and with its help we build our own farm and explore the globe, trying to discover its secrets.
Lightyear Frontier is an adventure farming game that looks like a combination of Stardew Valley. This is a result of cooperation between Frame Break and Amplifier Game Invest.
In Lightyear Frontier we find ourselves on an alien planet, which surface we explore using a powerful mech. During the game we have to take care not only to make this picturesque globe our new home, but also to learn its secrets and find out more about the civilization that once inhabited it and left behind mysterious structures.
Lightyear Frontier gives us a vast open world. We can observe the action here both from a first person perspective (FPP) as well as from a TPP. During the game we have various duties on our shoulders. We acquire useful resources and cultivate the land on which we plant different crops (their range expands as we progress). In addition, the globe is inhabited by various animals, which we can tame and breed, and even try to combine with their genetics. With time, we gather enough supplies to be able to construct our first headquarters. As we progress, we expand it, building more and more advanced structures within it. Although it all sounds quite idyllic, from time to time the planet can give us a hard time. The weather (which changes in a realistic way) can be violent and the changing seasons mean that we have to constantly keep an eye on what's happening on the farm.
We do all this sitting behind the wheel of a huge mech. Like a futuristic tractor it serves us both for exploration and work on the farm. With its help we cut down trees and split stones, or even water the plants and mow the crops. As we progress, we gain various upgrades that increase its capabilities.
Of course, our stay on the alien planet is not only about work on the farm. This picturesque globe is full of secrets hidden in ancient buildings left by the ancient civilization. Exploring them, we learn more about the planet and its previous inhabitants.
Lightyear Frontier allows for both solo play and cooperative gameplay with up to three players.
Lightyear Frontier features colorful graphics in a pleasant style that brings to mind No Man's Sky. The game takes place to the accompaniment of a catchy soundtrack described by the creators as "space country".

TheGamer: 4 / 5 by Zoe Osik
There is a bit of a grind to get the materials you need, but it doesn’t feel like it. You can freely explore all areas right away, though accessing the resources involves restoring the land and solving the mystery of the ancient civilization. It’s a great way to unwind at the end of a stressful day, and with the multiplayer function, you can bring friends along on the journey as well.
Windows Central: 4.5 / 5 by Cole Martin
Lightyear Frontier's development team is determined to bring its debut indie game to life. Despite an indefinite delay, the game's well-defined roap for expected updates promises an exceptional, comforting gaming experience. Although there's still room for improvement, the early-access farming simulator could transform into the cooperative game of my dreams.
Twinfinite: 4 / 5 by Rowan Jones
Lightyear Frontier advocates living in harmony with nature, understanding that you need to help replenish natural resources if you want to continue harvesting them. I could see how some might not understand the appeal of a game without conflict or survival elements, though. We are so used to our cozy games mirroring the world we live in right now where people fight to survive. Lightyear Frontier shows us something different. Not every day has to be a battle.
