Deep Hub · Beta · Active Development
Cycle of the First Dawn
A beta cultivation incremental built around repeated lives, discovery, and long-term progression. The developer describes reincarnation as a core system and says the game intentionally reveals systems through experimentation. Location routes and finding requirements stay unknown until a current-build source confirms them.
