Dream Engines: Nomad Cities

Dream Engines: Nomad Cities by Suncrash
Links: Steam | Official Site
Social links: Facebook | Twitter | YouTube
Release Date: 9 May, 2024

ABOUT THIS GAME

Dream Engines: Nomad Cities takes place in a wacky, whimsical world full of strange science and dreams. In order to survive in this nightmare-infested, post-apocalyptic world, you must build and defend a flying city using old-world tech. Explore the world in search of scarce resources, fight off weird nightmare creatures, and find out about the old empires and their dream-tech.

Build an industrious flying city
Your city’s population and economy form the backbone of your survival. Running out of food or resources can be just as dangerous as meeting a Dream Plage in the wilds. Plan and build automated production lines, and keep your people housed, happy and well fed.

Survive until the last moment – then run!
Fortify your city and defend it against raids for as long as you can. But even the ancients were unable to withstand the Dream Plagues forever – the longer you stay, the stronger they become. Unlike the ancients, however, you are able to grab your entire city and just fly away when things become too rough.

Balance expansion and disposable buildings to be left behind
Your city’s area is limited. You’ll have to balance between expensive long-term upgrades to expand your city, and building disposable infrastructure that will be left behind. Carefully choose which buildings you take with you and which you can live without – at least for a while.

Find and exploit scarce resources across different biomes
Resources are rare, and you’ll need a lot of them to turn your city into a self-sufficient empire. Good thing you can always move to another area when you’ve depleted everything around you. Every biome has an unlimited variety of procedurally generated landing areas, that each have different resources, opportunities, and challenges.

Explore the world with a customizable Steambot
The wilderness is swarming with Dream Plagues. To explore your surroundings, you directly control a unique Steam-Bot in real time action. You will upgrade, equip and customize that Steam-Bot to your preferred play style.

Discover ancient mysteries
The world is full of ancient ruins and strange mysteries. As you fly and land in different areas, you will discover these places, exploit them, and uncover their mysteries. (Mysteries & Lore not yet implemented).

Research, craft, and upgrade your infrastructure
The ancients used advanced Dream-Tech, most of which is now lost to the ages and to the Dream Plagues. In your flying city you will be able to build advanced research facilities and discover some of these secrets – unlocking advanced buildings and new crafting recipes for your Steam-Bot.

Upgrades to your infrastructure provide permanent bonuses and abilities to best fit your preferred playstyle. Spend hard-earned upgrade points on your Steam-Bot’s combat prowess and raid enemy nests for precious resources, on your city’s defenses to build an impenetrable fortress, or on your administrative and economic abilities to build a thriving, rich, mega-factory.

Carefully manage your fuel and weight
Keep a close eye on your city’s weight and fuel reserves. Being stranded at the wrong moment is a sure way to become extinct.

ABOUT THIS GAME

Outcore is a game that takes place on the player’s own real Windows desktop.
A lost girl named Lumi appears on your computer without memories of who she is or where she came from. Lumi tells you she can sense her memories are within files inside your computer, and you decide to help her find them.

Each memory file you find will require you to solve a different puzzle that involves your desktop. For example, one of the puzzles requires you to use MS Paint in order to draw a key that would fit into a safe. Another example is a puzzle that teaches you how to program a “Super sophisticated AI” that can control characters in an idle game.

Every time you solve one of these puzzles you will decrypt the memory file and replay some of Lumi’s old memories. Each memory gets you closer to solving the mystery of who Lumi is, why she came to your desktop, and how to get her back home.
