The Worldseed journey

A world you
get to know.

There’s more to making a planet than placing the first patch of grass.

Start with the landscape

Give life somewhere to begin.

Build a spherical planet tile by tile. Bring land and water together, explore how neighbouring habitats interact, and watch a landscape become a home.

Inside a living planet

Small choices.
A changing world.

Creating a world is only the beginning. The interesting part is learning how everything fits together.

Landscape becomes habitat.

Build on a spherical planet where neighbouring tiles interact. Grass, water, forests and mountains give your world its character—and give different forms of life a place to belong.

Life has its own needs.

Weather, food and habitat shape what can thrive. As colonies grow, pay attention to the pressure on your tiles and help your ecosystem find a balance.

Discovery becomes a field guide.

Follow creature clues and gather discoveries in your journal and bestiary. Get to know the life of your planet one observation at a time.

Development notes

From prototype
to a living world.

Worldseed is an actively developed prototype, bringing together planet building, weather, living habitats and creature discovery.

We’re refining how creation, discovery and stewardship connect. A release date and public playtest details will be announced here when they’re ready.

02 The studio

Built with
curiosity.

Stonescaper Games is an independent game studio based in South Africa.

Founded by Johann Meyer.

We’re starting with Worldseed: a game about creating a place, getting to know it, and caring for the life that calls it home.

Our name reflects a simple idea. Something small can become the foundation of something much bigger.

Say hello
Small beginnings. Living worlds.
