WIP 2D survival game inspired by Noita and slightly Terraria
(name TBD)


Preview (2/4/20)

Table of contents

Overview:

Inspired by Noita and the Falling Everything Engine, I am replicating the engine in order to create a survival game.

It’s vaguely like Terraria in that it’s a 2d side view survival.
It’s more like Noita with its simulated physics, but less “chaotic”, since dying is somewhat more impactful.

One of the main things is that I don’t want it to get stale like other survival games where there’s a fixed progression and repetitive world generation and items you have to craft to progress. I want it to be very procedurally generated.

Automatic Development Builds can be found here (You need to be signed in to GitHub to download).

Main ideas:

(note: anything is subject to change)

Ideas Document

  • Physics engine similar to Nolla Games' Falling Everything Engine
  • No traditional inventory: hold/wear/move things in the world
  • Procedural world generation: including procedural materials, biomes, etc.
  • Design/construct objects/tools/mechanisms
