About Lost Skies
Lost Skies lifts players into a vast open world of floating islands, ancient ruins, and the mysterious Atlas power that sustains the sky. Exploration blends high‑altitude travel, puzzle solving, and combat against turrets, drones, and colossal sky beings.
A deep ship‑building system lets you design a unique skyship that serves as home, transport, and weapon. Physics‑based traversal tools and a community‑driven Island Creator expand how you move and create within this airborne realm.
01 / THE GUIDE
Skyship Crafting
The skyship is assembled from freely placed parts, allowing you to arrange components to balance durability, agility, and firepower. Each layout directly influences how the vessel handles aerial challenges and combat encounters.
Because parts are not limited to preset slots, no two ships look alike. Players can experiment with different configurations to suit personal preferences while navigating the floating world.
- Consider grouping heavier components near the centre for better stability.
- Leave clear space around weapons to avoid obstructing fire.
02 / THE GUIDE
Traversal Tools
A physics‑based grappling hook, hang glider, and wingsuit let you scale cliffs, glide between islands, and perform aerial maneuvers. Each tool offers a distinct method for moving through the sky.
These tools can be combined in a single journey, allowing you to climb a peak, launch into a glide, then switch to a wingsuit for extended travel across distant landmarks.
- Use the grappling hook to gain height before engaging the hang glider.
- Practice timing jumps to maximise the wingsuit’s glide distance.
03 / THE GUIDE
Island Creator
The intuitive Island Creator lets you design custom islands and share them via the Steam Workshop. Community members can download these creations, expanding the game’s terrain beyond the base map.
The tool supports a range of shapes and structures, enabling each explorer to contribute new challenges, landmarks, or aesthetic environments for others to explore.
- Start with simple terrain forms before adding complex structures.
- Test your island in a solo session to verify functionality.
04 / THE GUIDE
Combat Encounters
Ancient turrets and drones patrol the skies, hunting players across floating islands. Larger battles involve colossal beings that have roamed the heavens since humanity’s downfall.
Defeating these threats relies on a well‑armed skyship and strategic use of traversal tools, allowing you to reposition, evade fire, and strike from advantageous angles.
- Equip both short‑range and long‑range weapons for flexible responses.
- Use the grappling hook to quickly change position during large sky battles.
05 / THE GUIDE
Multiplayer & Co‑op
Lost Skies lists Single‑player, Multi‑player, Co‑op, and Online Co‑op, indicating that friends can explore together or tackle challenges side by side.
Full controller support, including DualShock and DualSense, is documented, so the game can be played with these supported controllers.
- Coordinate ship roles—one player can focus on navigation while another handles combat.
- Discuss island‑building ideas early to avoid overlapping structures.
