Guide pioneering settlers among Venusian clouds in this space colonisation city builder. Grow food, collect energy, mine resources, balance buoyancy and weight to stay afloat in the treacherous Venusian atmosphere, and build a self-sufficient colony while navigating storms and acidic clouds.
Venusville
SteamIn Venusville, you lead the first expedition to colonize the skies of Venus — a place where the ground is death, and only the clouds can sustain life. Your mission: design, expand, and maintain a self-sufficient city suspended in the most hostile atmosphere in the solar system.
You are the architect and commander of a living city. Every decision — where to build, what to produce, how to balance weight and buoyancy — determines whether your colony soars or sinks. Manage colonists and robotic workers, harness solar and thermal power, extract resources from corrosive clouds, and navigate the endless storms that sweep across the planet. Will your city endure the planet’s wrath… or vanish beneath the clouds forever?

👥 Colonist & Robot City Building Lead colonists in constructing infrastructure, processing resources, farming food, and maintaining systems — supported by worker, builder, and transport robots. Keep your people fed, rested, and satisfied to unlock efficiency and prevent unrest.

⚖ Buoyancy & Balance Each module, battery, engine, and solar array has its own weight and buoyancy. Strategic placement and constant adjustments are essential to maintain equilibrium and avoid deadly tilts or descent into extreme pressure zones. 🌪 Planetary Mobility & Exploration From day one, your city drifts on Venus’ winds (~4-day circumnavigation near equator). Once engines unlock full mobility, you can control movement across latitudes and altitudes. Use scanning towers and orbiting satellites in the late game to detect storms, resource concentrations (e.g. FeCl₃, H₂O, H₂), and anomalies.

🔋 Power Management Harness solar energy and Stirling engines driven by altitude temperature differentials. Design robust power grids and battery networks so your colony can survive night, storms, and system overloads. ☁ Atmospheric Resource Extraction Mine raw gases and aerosols from the clouds, then refine them into usable materials — sulphur-based plastics, carbons, chemicals, and metals — to feed your production chains.

🏗 Manufacture Advanced Materials Transform refined materials into high-end components: graphene, nanotubes, diamond-based chips, electronics — enabling expansion into advanced modules and technologies. 🌡 Environmental Challenges Brave acid clouds, lightning, extreme temperature shifts, wind shear, storms, fires, and pressure fluctuations. These hazards threaten system stability, structural integrity, and colonist survival.
