About the Game

VISE is a co-op survival sandbox where every door, cart, and bridge is a physics object you designed yourself, beam by beam, rope by rope, hinge by hinge. No prefab walls. No snap-together kits. Just raw materials, a blueprint editor, and a world that responds to what you build.

Build anything. Make it real.

Open the blueprint editor and start with raw shapes: beams, pillars, panels, discs, ropes, hinges, sliders, turning axles. Compose a stool. Compose a wheelbarrow. Compose a ten-meter trebuchet if you can afford the wood. When your design passes the structural check, drop the paper at a build site, deposit the materials, and the thing you imagined stands up in the world as a real Jolt physics object. Doors swing. Drawers slide. Wheels turn. Ropes hold weight.

Shape the land.

VISE runs on fully editable voxel terrain. Dig out a cellar. Carve a path through a hillside. Cut a tree at the base and watch the trunk split where you struck. Strip the branches for fiber, the bushes for berries, the riverbed for stone. Every chunk of dirt and every leaf on every tree is real.

Survive together.

Connect to a dedicated server through the in-game planet browser. Every server is its own world with its own seed, its own forest, and its own history. Hop between them. Your character and your progress come with you. Eat to live. Sleep to recover. Learn the trades that make the work easier.
