By My Side Free Download (v0.9.0)

You wash up alone in the wilderness armed only with your hands and whatever the land provides. By My Side is an open-world survival-craft game where you build a home from scratch, chop wood, raise shelter, and battle the harsh elements as seasons shift toward a merciless winter. One day, a stray dog crosses your path—feed it, earn its trust, and watch it grow into a loyal companion that never leaves your side. Each run presents a different dog breed with unique looks and talents, which you can train to guard, hunt, haul sleds, and obey your commands. Together, you face dangers, survive unpredictable events like droughts, animal migrations, and wolf pack attacks, and defend your homestead from escalating threats through the seasons. Crafting and building form the heart of your survival journey. Construct your base from a simple campfire to a fully powered homestead featuring glass greenhouses, upper floors, and an intricate grid of solar panels, batteries, pumps, heaters, sprinklers, and automated relays that keep your home running even when you’re away. Over 90 recipes let you refine raw materials into tools, gear, and machines via workbenches, furnaces, and powered devices. Grow crops year-round, raise animals, trade with wandering merchants, and automate tasks to ease the grind. Choose from multiple origins that affect your strengths and weaknesses, and pick your preferred mode: a hardcore permadeath survival or a story mode where your home and world persist beyond setbacks. Arrive with nothing, but leave a lasting legacy—always with your dog by your side.
