About this game

Diteya is an island you can take apart.

Every block is made of dits, tiny squares of dirt, stone, wood, coal, iron, copper, zinc, salt water. What a block does comes from what it's made of. A line of iron dits carries electricity from one side of a block to the other. Wood burns, and so does coal, for longer. Put zinc and copper in brine and you have a cell, and the cell lights a lamp until the zinc is eaten away.

There are no recipes to look up. When something works, it works for a reason, and the reason still holds the next time you try something new.

What you can do
• Dig through the meadow into the caves below, and come back up through the holes you made.
• Collect what you dig, dit by dit, and draw your own blocks with it in the Engineer's notebook.
• Copy anything you find or build onto a page, and stamp it somewhere else.
• Plant a seed and come back to a tree. The island keeps its own days while you're away.
• Swim in the sea, or in a pond you dug yourself.
• Watch the day go, and find out how far your lamps reach at night.

One price, and that's it
Diteya costs once. No ads, no in-app purchases, no account, and it plays offline. It collects nothing about you.

What’s new

• Diteya 1.0. The Engineer carries the DIT-8, a pocket gadget to draw what you build and keep your plans.
• A continent on a round planet, with lakes, bare rock and a cold north. Your map grows as you go.
• Reap and sow wheat, cook porridge, draw tools, make glass and a light bulb.
• Steam drives wheels on dry ground, and a harvester reaps as it rolls.
• Dolphins ride with fast boats at sea, and frogs hop into the lakes.
• The world sounds like where you are, by day, by night and underground.
