Linseed Oil

Build a place.
Make it yours.

A gentle survival game about building, painting,
and making a world your own.

A work in progress. A world of your own.

The world is your canvas

A little world. A lot of possibility.

Gather a few materials. Find a place you like. Build something, mix a color, and make it yours. Linseed Oil is a gentle survival game about building and painting a world you can return to, alone or with friends.

01 Start with a few blocks.

Build

A small shelter, a garden wall, a place to call your own. Combine familiar materials with shaped blocks, glass, and the details that turn a stack of pieces into your place.

02 Then leave your mark.

Paint

Brush color straight onto the world. Draw a line, fill a face, or add a stamp. Keep your favorite colors on your palette, save a pattern, and reuse it on a whole stack of blocks.

03 A small ritual of making.

Gather

Use the Materializer to mine the blocks for your next idea. Craft oil paints from pigments and linseed oil, then spend paint as you work. Four color stocks make room for a whole palette of possibilities.

From the workshop

Still growing.

Linseed Oil is in active development for Windows and macOS. We're refining building, painting, and shared worlds for early playtests. The gameplay shown here is from the current development build; things will keep changing.
