Factory-building PC game with automation and belts available in early access on Steam and Epic games
We’re nearing the release of a major update for our game: the Liquids System.
Part of that will be a new map in the campaign, which will let you play with this cool feature. The Liquids System allows you to irrigate dry land, and is a cornerstone of the chemical industry. Yay!
Before releasing it, here’s a video showing how I built that map in our game editor. This will be available for you as player, to build and share your own maps!
Uff .. the marathon is over. We just completed release of the Prologue at Steam and Epic store. I see thousands of downloads at each store and that makes me happy.
Here are link, if you are interested and we are getting back to production to bring you new features!
Okay. This post is a bit different. It’s not my usual development-related post for Revive & Prosper.
As you may know, we started working on the game 8 months ago, and plan to release it this fall. For any of you familiar with game design, that’s a very ambitious schedule. However, technically it can be done, thanks to the many, many hours we’ve been able to put into development.
Things have been going very well, moving very quickly. We’re excited with the milestones we’ve reached.
The bigger hurdle is marketing. While we have the development well in hand, releasing in the fall gives us only a short time in which to create enough buzz about the game to build an audience. Of course not every person who plays our game will like it, but there are people who are super excited about it.
Therefore, I believe our best marketing should be the game itself. To do that, and to build interest and anticipation, we plan to release a Prologue to Revive & Prosper publicly, now. The Prologue version is about 1-4 hours of gameplay, during which time you’ll be able to see if this is game for you or not.
It will be available on Itch.io, Steam, Epic store and many others.
Right now we’re testing it at Itch.io:
If you want, download the game and let us know what you think.
Thank you.
Yeah, I just added last week catapults into the game.
How there can be catapults in nondestructive game?
Well they are for transportation. Check out the video!
And here is tutorial for 2nd campaign level.
I’m happy to announce that our game will be part of the upcoming Next Fest on Steam. Next Fest starts June 19th, and ends June 26th.
For the last two weeks we’ve been focusing on giving players the best possible experience.
I’m aware that the game has a steep learning curve, and for people who don’t know the genre it can be hard to understand.
Therefore we’ve focused on creating a campaign in the game that will take you through the mechanics of how to play, while at the same time being lots of fun.
On top of that we upgraded the user interface, and are now doing videos that will take you through each campaign map .
Here is the first one:
After almost two weeks we have a new, major update to the game – trains and rails!
Here is a video explaining the new feature:
The automatic spreading of trees is a cool and important feature of the ecosystem, but sometimes it can be super annoying. It almost feel that trees are “attacking” your base and nature wants to take over.
It’s actually a cool mechanic, yet there should be something else that you can do about it other than to cut small trees all the time.
I finally developed a solution for that – use the fences or walls to control it. Here is a short video explaining how:
This is a feature our creative director (my wife), Bara, has been looking at for a long time. Now you can design and build your own buildings. Each building is composed of walls and floors. We’ll also be adding roofs and beams (to support larger floors).
Here’s a video explaining the functionality:
After 6 months of work on the game we would love to get feedback from the community, and also start building our team of core players who will participate with their feedback on the development of the game.
Use this Closed Alpha Sign Up page.
Access to the Alpha version will be limited to 3 weeks.
We will give out only 500 keys.
What you can expect by playing the Closed Alpha?
