The Light Must Never Go Out

Hi everyone, we’re back and incredibly proud to reveal ShoreTiles!

Set in a cold, endless sea, ShoreTiles places you in control of an ever expanding island built around a solitary lighthouse. Expand in procedurally generated seas, where no two runs are the same! By day, you carefully shape your world tile by tile, expanding your territory, managing resources, and planning your defenses.

But when night falls… the sea answers back.

Creatures rise from the depths, drawn to your light and everything it protects. Your survival depends entirely on what you’ve built, and how well you’ve prepared.

There is no undo: only what comes next.

What Awaits You in ShoreTiles:

🧩 Strategic Tile Placement

Draw from a randomized deck and shape your island piece by piece. Every tile placement is permanent, plan carefully, or risk collapse.

🌊 A Living, Expanding Island

Connect terrain, build efficiently, and grow your settlement around the lighthouse that keeps you safe… for now.

🌙 A Relentless Day-Night Cycle

Calm planning by day turns into survival by night, as threats emerge from the fog and the sea.

⚔️ Defend What You’ve Build

Construct military camps, walls, and key structures to withstand increasingly dangerous attacks.

🪙 Balance Economy and Survival

Build farms, settlements, and lighthouses to sustain your island—but every choice comes at a cost.

🔍 Discover What Lies Beneath

Uncover relics, new structures, and hidden advantages… alongside new dangers waiting in the darkness.
