Solo indie developer Cursor Games today announces that Away From Life, a first-person open-world survival adventure, launches on Steam Early Access today for $12.99 / €12.79 / £10.99 with a limited-time 25% launch discount.
After a devastating helicopter crash leaves you stranded across a remote and dangerous archipelago, survival becomes your only priority. With no rescue in sight, you must adapt to life as a castaway, scavenging for resources, hunting for food, crafting tools, and building shelter to endure the unforgiving wilderness. Every decision matters as you explore the islands, uncover hidden secrets both on land and beneath the waves, and carve a path back to civilisation.
From dense jungles to treacherous coastlines and the depths of the surrounding ocean, Away From Life challenges players to push beyond their limits. Danger lurks in every direction, from hostile wildlife to the environment itself. Establishing a safe haven is only the beginning, as true survival means mastering your surroundings.
The Early Access launch introduces a robust foundation for players to dive into, including:
- Expansive island exploration across diverse environments
- Deep crafting systems, including tools, vehicles, and base building
- Multiplayer co-op, allowing up to 8 players to survive together
- A living world filled with dangerous inhabitants, flora, and fauna
- Hidden secrets and mysteries waiting to be uncovered
This is just the beginning. Away From Life will continue to evolve throughout Early Access, with future updates shaped directly by community feedback and ongoing development. The team has already been actively expanding the experience based on player suggestions, including new traversal and survival tools such as boats, rafts, and motorised watercraft, improving how players explore and survive the islands and surrounding waters. Players are encouraged to join the Discord, share their experiences, and help shape the journey ahead.

Whether braving the wild solo or teaming up with fellow survivors, one thing is certain: nothing will be handed to you. There are no stores, no shortcuts, only your instincts, your ingenuity, and your will to survive.
