11Overview2233Planet customization is one of the central creative systems in Petit Planet. Players reshape their planet's terrain, alter its color palette, change the sky and atmosphere, and place furniture and decorations across the landscape. Customization options expand as the player accumulates more Luca and unlocks new biomes and Luca Fruits.445566Terrain Shaping7788Players can raise and lower terrain, create hills and valleys, add water features like ponds and rivers, and shape coastlines. Terrain tools range from broad sculpting brushes for large-scale changes to fine tools for detailed adjustments. The planet starts small and grows as Luca milestones are reached.991010Bridges and Stairs11111212Players can build bridges and stairs using the exterior decorator app. These structures are placed instantly with no construction delays or fees. This is a notable quality-of-life feature compared to similar games where infrastructure requires waiting periods or loan payments.13131414Luca Fruits15151616As the Luca Arbour grows, it grants Luca Fruit slots. Luca Fruits are customization items that alter the planet's appearance in significant ways. For example, a "Sunset Cliffs" fruit modifies the coastline terrain, while other fruits can change grass to purple or adjust environmental colors. Neighbors also gift Luca Fruits at high bond levels, providing additional options.17171818Color and Atmosphere19192020Customization extends beyond the ground. Players can dye grasslands different colors, change the hue of their sky, adjust lighting conditions, and select atmospheric effects like gentle snow or floating particles. Building materials and colors can be mixed and matched freely, allowing for dramatically different visual themes across different players' planets.21212222Interior Decoration23232424There is no inventory limit for furniture and decorative items. Players can collect as many items as they want without storage constraints. Interior and exterior decoration use the same placement system, which supports rotation, scaling, and snapping to terrain.25252626Housing Upgrades27272828Housing upgrades unlock progressively through gameplay. Unlike some life simulation games, Petit Planet does not require loans to upgrade housing. New rooms and structural options become available as the player progresses, tying into the overall Luca-based advancement system.29293030Character Customization31313232During the beta, character customization was limited: 4 skin tones and a restricted selection of hairstyles were available. Additional appearance options are unlockable through the daily shop, with more customization features expected in future updates.33333434Vehicle Skins35353636The player's interstellar vehicle from Starsea Voyage can be customized with different skins. Vehicle customization uses Luca drops, a resource collected in the Star Stratum during voyages.37373838Planet Maker App39394040The Planet Maker is an in-game app that provides a top-down or orbital view of the player's planet. From this interface, players can make large-scale changes to terrain, biome placement, and decoration layouts. It acts as the primary planning tool for players who want to design cohesive, themed planets.41414242Themed Planets43434444The combination of terrain shaping, Luca Fruits, color tools, furniture placement, and atmospheric effects lets players create themed planets. Examples seen in pre-release materials include winter wonderland planets, tropical island planets, and cherry blossom forest planets. Players can visit each other's creations, and well-designed planets attract visitors.45+46+Final Beta Decorating and Load Limit47+48+The September 21 Final Beta notes introduce Vignettes: players follow a guide to create a cozy corner, then unlock more advanced decorating options and the Blueprint system as their decorating experience grows. Holding to pick up multiple items also makes arranging spaces easier.49+50+The test still has a load limit to balance performance and device temperatures. Some objects have reduced load, but planting, building and decorating can still encounter limits. The new Blueprint system does not remove that limit. Flowers can also be made into dyes for the player's hair.
