Equilinox

In Equilinox, you build and nurture an ecosystem by placing plants, trees, and animals in a natural landscape. Your goal is to create habitats where different species can live and thrive. Each species has its own environmental and resource needs. Plants help make terrain fertile, while animals interact with their surroundings, feed, and reproduce. Keeping populations and resources in balance supports healthier wildlife. Animals generate points that you can spend on resources and genetic changes to species. Evolving existing wildlife unlocks new plants and animals, and tasks offer rewards and direction. A separate sandbox mode lets you place organisms and modify them freely.

Shape a landscape into a living ecosystem, balancing plant and animal needs while evolving species and unlocking new life.

From the Devs

Equilinox is a relaxing nature game which allows you to create and nurture your very own diverse ecosystem of plants and animals. Sit back, start growing, and watch your world blossom and evolve in front of you!

Create

You can start creating your ecosystems by placing plants and animals into your world. Having a variety of plants and trees will make the terrain more fertile and allow wildlife to flourish, while animals will begin to earn you points which can be used to purchase various in-game resources.

Nurture

Every animal and plant has its own life-cycle, unique behaviors and requirements, so you need to ensure that each species is satisfied with its environment, has enough resources, and that the ecosystems are balanced. Healthy, happy animals will live longer, breed more, and earn you more points.

Evolve

The points you earn can also be used to genetically modify your species, allowing you to manipulate the traits and behaviors of your species for various benefits. You can also evolve your current wildlife to unlock more exotic plants, trees and creatures.

Progress

There are multiple in-game tasks that can be completed to gain rewards such as extra diversity points or new content. Some tasks can be repeated, making it possible to farm certain plants and animals to receive a regular income of diversity points.

Get Creative!

Equilinox also has a fully sandbox mode where you can place as many plants and animals as you like, plus you can genetically modify them to your heart's content! Create swarms of super fast pink wolves, high bouncing rainbow sheep, pixel art made from colored mushrooms, beautiful low-poly scenes, or anything else that you can think of. The possibilities are endless!
