#1 An intriguing worldbuilding idea

Post by rhoenix »

Kickstarter link
Website: http://stonehearth.net
Stonehearth is a game about exploration and survival in an epic fantasy setting. Your job is to help a small group of settlers survive and carve out a place for themselves in a hostile land. You’ll need to establish a food supply, build shelter, defend your people, and find a way to grow and expand, facing challenges at every step.

Starting from procedurally generated terrain with dynamic AI encounters, Stonehearth combines city sim and good old combat with infinite building possibilities. It’s built to be moddable at every level, from your city, to the people and creatures inhabiting the world, and will ship with the tools and documentation for you to add your own customizations to the game, and share them with friends.

- The game is equal parts Sandbox, Real Time Strategy, and RPG.
- It will initially ship on PC, but we have a stretch goal for Mac and Linux releases.
- This kickstarter is to fund the single player version of the game. We would love to add cooperative multiplayer and PvP modes as well, and these will appear as future stretch goals.
The video on the page is intriguing. This to me looks like a very interesting mix of Simcity, Minecraft, and a little bit of Populous for fun.
