Genre: City builder, management, strategy

Release date: TBC

What is it? A citybuilder in space, man, I always wanted these things to go into space, man. It’s big on the danger of off-world colonisation, from atmospheric woes to Duney sandworm strikes, though has also folded in SimCity staples such as crime and pollution. This is the balance Aven will have to strike – can it feel suitably sci-fi while clinging onto genre norms?

It’s had a decent run in beta – you can pick it via itch yourself if you like – so hopefully feedback has pointed it in the right direction. It’s a lovely concept, but any citybuilder walks a tightrope between grand designs and micromanagement, and lobbing an ambitious theme into mix is going to make that balancing act harder. Aven is exactly the sort of thing quite of few of Team RPS would thrill to – in theory, anyway.
