SteamAbout ThisIsTheGame
Return to an old game project that you once abandoned, only the game hasn’t stopped changing since you left it. The game has begun to evolve, NPCs have slowly started to abandon their intended roles, new bugs have emerged, and the morality of this world is becoming questionable. As the creator of this world it is up to you to determine the direction of the game. Will you attempt to restore the game to its intended state, or has this world deviated too far from sanity to be saved?
Key Features
•
Play altruistically or psychopathically. Work with NPCs to save the town from the corruption that has been increasingly plaguing the game. Help the NPCs so they can spend more time assisting you on public works projects, or exploit them for your own profit.
•
Immerse yourself in the game. Get to know unique NPCs with their own dreams, desires, and goals. NPCs do not run on a fixed schedule but instead react dynamically to how the game changes.
•
Gather resources and craft. Collect various resources from the map, convert sprites into pixels, and craft unique items to help the NPCs and the town thrive.
•
Collect various creatures and fish that reside in different parts of the map. Then, donate them to the mausoleum.
•
Upgrade the town. Work towards upgrading community buildings, bridges, stairs, your house, and more.
•
Make friends (or enemies) with the local NPCs! Some of them are glad you’re back. Others, not so much. Every NPC reacts to your actions—earn their trust, or become their greatest fear.
•
Become a leader or choose to work in the shadows. The corruption in the game has been getting worse. Decide if you’ll push for someone else to lead, or claim leadership for yourself.
•
Customize your character.
•
Explore changing environments. Unleash hidden creatures, plants, and weather events tied to the morality of your decisions.
•
Decorate your house and the map.
•
Unlock powerful items that grant you the ability to alter game rules by manipulating your stats. Just be careful not to use too many...
•
Unlock the secrets of the game and the NPCs within it.
