About Eden Crafters
Eden Crafters lets you pick one of five distinct planets and reshape it into a livable world for humanity. Each planet presents its own environmental hurdles—giant ocean waves, lava fields, asteroid storms, ancient colony ruins, and a mysterious signal—requiring careful planning and resource management.
The game combines open‑world exploration with factory building, terraformation, and survival crafting. Play alone or join friends in online co‑op, using conveyors, machines, and vehicles to automate production chains and gradually transform hostile terrain into a thriving Eden.
01 / THE GUIDE
Five Unique Planets
The base game includes Ocean World, Pyraxis, Aetheria, Nova Terra, and Echo Prime, and all are available without any DLC. Each world carries its own environmental challenges and hidden secrets, shaping the way you approach resource gathering and construction.
Exploring each planet reveals specific hazards—massive waves on Ocean World, lava flows on Pyraxis, asteroid storms on Aetheria, relic colonies on Nova Terra, and a strange signal on Echo Prime. These hazards influence the placement of factories, the design of automation, and the timing of terraformation steps.
- Map each planet’s hazards before committing large amounts of resources.
- Identify unique secrets early to guide where you place production hubs.
02 / THE GUIDE
Terraforming Mechanics
Terraforming requires tempering the climate, creating a breathable atmosphere, and converting toxic lakes into life‑sustaining water. Progress is measured by achieving satisfactory efficiency in these transformations, which reflects how well your systems balance input and output.
Automation tools such as conveyors and machines can be linked directly to environmental transformation systems. By feeding raw materials into these setups, you can scale climate control, atmosphere generation, and water purification across large areas.
- Balance climate control output with resource consumption to avoid stalls.
- Use automated loops to keep terraformation processes running continuously.

03 / THE GUIDE
Factory Building & Automation
Players can construct elaborate factories using conveyors and machines, forming production chains that turn raw resources into refined goods. These factories can also feed directly into environmental transformation systems, linking manufacturing to terraformation.
Automation is central to scaling effort; once a basic loop is established, additional machines can be added to increase throughput. Monitoring each stage helps identify bottlenecks that could slow overall progress.
- Start with simple conveyor loops before expanding to larger factories.
- Watch for bottlenecks and add parallel machines to keep flow steady.
04 / THE GUIDE
Online Co‑Op Multiplayer
Eden Crafters supports both single‑player and online co‑op modes, allowing friends to collaborate on building, terraforming, and survival tasks within the same open world. Friends can collaborate on building, terraforming, and survival tasks in the shared online world.
The base game includes all five planets with no DLC required, so a co-op group can take on coordinated large‑scale projects together.
- Assign distinct roles—one player gathers while another builds factories—to reduce overlap.
- Communicate terrain priorities early to focus collective effort.
05 / THE GUIDE
Vehicles for Exploration
Vehicles are listed as a feature, providing mobility across harsh planetary surfaces. They let you travel faster over oceans, lava fields, or asteroid‑storm zones, reaching distant resources and construction sites more efficiently.
Using vehicles alongside conveyors and factories creates a hybrid logistics network. You can transport large loads to remote outposts, then feed them into stationary automation lines for processing.
- Test each vehicle on a planet’s terrain before committing valuable cargo.
- Combine vehicle routes with conveyor networks for smoother logistics.
