Omega Crafter is a cozy crafting game that, at its core, works a lot like Valheim.

It is pretty much the same gameplay loop as you gather ressources, craft better tiers of gear, go summon and fight a boss in each biome etc...

It adds a (imo) very sweet little twist with the robot buddies that are fully programmable to your liking. They can take on tasks for you, gather ressources, work at crafting benches etc...The programming UI is very fun to use and experiment with.

The overall vibe is cozy. Biomes and enemies are colorful, the pacing is chill but combat is quite decent and does offer a bit of challenge. You got blocking, dodge roll, jump attacks, dashing...It's nowhere near a souls-like though. Still nice to have a few more actions in combat aside from the basic attack button.

Runs great on a Steam Deck too! Very well optimized, although i got framedrops in "Fullscreen mode".
Setting it to "window" (which changes nothing visually, gets me a stable 60fps with only a few rare drops that don't affect gameplay much though.

What i don't like as much is that biomes are rather empty and don't have the same wanderlust feeling that Valheim offers. The graphics are quite basic as well with the low poly look. Sunset and sunrise look awesome though. Character animations are a little stiff as well.

If the devs can polish visuals and animations a bit more, as well as fill the biomes with more interesting stuff to discover, i can see this being a great alternative to Valheim. The programming features are cool but they don't offer enough to be the number 1 selling point. So more polishing in other areas is definetly needed.

I like Omega Crafter quite a bit, so if you're looking for sth similar to Valheim, give this a try!

Much like Valheim, but a little kinder. Good fun!

cute game very fun to play. think valheim but cute and more relaxing.
