Launch your fitness journey with this free-to-play gamified fitness app
that rewards players for living and active lifestyle.
Lightpilots is currently in alpha testing for both Android and iOS and
available on our Discord. The beta will ready for takeoff in Q3 2025.
Overview
In lightpilots, you earn in-game resources by completing
dedicated physical exercise sessions called missions.
There are various mission options to choose from depending on
how fast you intend to move during the exercise session.
You complete a mission using your lightship, which is received
for free when starting the game and can be upgraded / customised
as you play.
Lightships
The lightship is central to all gameplay elements and can be fully
customised and upgraded by you.
Lightships are comprised of four components called lightship
modules which all contribute towards the power and look of a lightship. These are: bridge, hull, wing, and engine.
The overall lightship power is determined by the individual power of
all modules, which affects the amount of in-game resources earned
during missions.
Missions
During a mission the app will track your movement via GPS (speed)
and pedometer (steps) based on the type of mission selected.
There are four mission options you can select based on intended movement speed: patrol (walking), ranger (jogging), scout
(running), freighter (interval).
Missions are the primary mechanism to progress through the game,
but movement outside of a mission is also rewarded via the cosmic
dust system.
Galaxy
Progress demonstrated by completing missions can be visualised on
the lightpilots galaxy map.
The speed of progress when exploring or travelling between star
systems in the galaxy is dependent on the amount of energy (drive)
used as part of a mission.
Exploring the galaxy map unlocks additional rewards for you, and there are specific challenges (bounties) in each system.
Progression
There is a deep progression system in the Lightpilots game where
you can craft new modules and upgrade existing ones to
increase lightship power.
Upgrading costs in-game resources which you earn through missions. Crafting options are linked to your pilot level, which
can be increased by consistent mission completion.
The upgrade system has been designed to ensure there is no limit to
how powerful your lightship can become!
