About the Game

Note: The game is in the prototyping stage. Please note that most of the content you see at this date doesn't reflect the final game and will be subject to many changes.

A Floating City with Endless Possibilities

Command Your Island

Build your city on a drifting island, carefully designing vertical structures to preserve precious space. Strategically plan every tile to maintain the delicate balance of your ecosystem.

Dynamic Terraforming & Water Management

Sculpt the landscape to create thriving biomes like lush grasslands, dense forests, marshy swamps, or arid deserts. Manage realistic water physics: pump seawater, desalinate it, carve rivers, control floods, and irrigate strategically to nurture biodiversity.

Eco-Focused Gameplay

Rescue and shelter diverse animal species displaced by extreme climates. Offer them suitable habitats and carefully balance their unique needs, enriching your island’s ecological harmony.

Wind-Driven Navigation

Sail strategically by harnessing dynamic weather systems and realistic wind patterns. Tack into favorable winds, plan routes carefully, and respond swiftly to unpredictable storms.

Resource Management & Sustainability

Balance essential resources: food, water, energy in an ever-changing environment. Embrace recycling, renewable energy, and sustainability to keep your ecosystem healthy and your city thriving.

Immersive Exploration

Explore distant shores to uncover rare resources, secrets, and stranded communities. Each expedition shapes your island’s fate—strengthening it or challenging its delicate equilibrium.

Adapt, Evolve, Prosper

Unlock technologies, construct specialized buildings, and evolve your floating island from a humble refuge to a flourishing, eco-friendly haven in a world forever changed by climate extremes.
