This project is a work in progress and I work on it in my leisure time. I was so excited to work on this idea that I cocooned myself for 3 days to build the prototype. If you want to see what I built in 3 days, watch the video below:
I imagine this game to potentially be Stardew Valley meets resource management​, in a survival setting​.
​
You have to attract people here and feed your town people, then keep them happy and working​, and at the same time building the town infrastructure, healthcare​.
You research technology to improve Quality of Life (e.g. automation, electricity)​. You start as nothing in the middle of an ocean, and the end goal is a sprawling city.
There are random weather events that make the environment less static. Dynamic lighting in the form of a day night cycle also adds to the immersion. In multiplayer, lightning strikes can strike random players!
The game is a work in progress and I want to push it to new heights.
​
If you are interested to discuss this with me or even work together, do let me know! Even if not for a production role, then just being interested in resource management or similar games, or just wanting to talk about game design!
​​
The goal was to push for an MVP in around May. And I am happy to say this has been achieved, and even exceeded its initial scope with multiplayer support!
​
Meanwhile, I have been taking plenty of videos and screenshots of my work in progress and below is a funny compilation of the bugs I have faced so far. I am sure there will be more to come.

Want to use Havendock as a wallpaper or a zoom background? I've made Day and Night versions of a town in action!
