Website: http://rimworldgame.com/ Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/294100/ RimWorld is a scifi western base building game currently in Alpha 16. Alpha 16 features a new spherical world, trade caravans and much more. Change list: Spherical planet World map is now modeled as a sphere covered with hexagons (and a few pentagons). New map generation to make nicer mountain ranges, hill clusters, and continents. Nice backdrop with stars and sun. Time of day is modeled on the planet view; local time of day corresponds to how the sunlight hits the planet. Time zones are now modeled, out of necessity. New planet generation parameter: temperature. You can make worlds that are overall hotter or overall colder. New planet generation parameter: rainfall. You can make worlds where there is overall more or less precipitation. New biome: sea ice. Factions can now have many bases; non-player factions generate with lots of bases. Multiple simultaneous maps There can now be multiple local maps active at once. For example, you can have your colony running as well, as a group of soldiers attacking an enemy base, at the same time. The character bar at the top of the screen shows all of your colonists and allows you to change which map you’re looking at. It groups characters togehter by the map they’re on. You can settle multiple colonies at once. However, for balance and performance reasons, the default limit is one colony at a time. This can be increased in the options menu if you want to experiment, but we don’t recommend it. Caravans Player can now gather up groups of colonists, prisoners, and animals, and form caravans to travel across the world surface. Caravans are formed using a special “create caravan” dialog, which allows you to easily decide what people, animals, and items should be included in the caravan up to its carry weight limit. The colonists do the busywork. Caravans appear as units in the world map, where they can be ordered around similarly to drafted soldiers in the local map. Caravans can be ambushed by enemy factions or manhunting animals. This produces a temporary local map. Caravans can incidentally meet friendly traders and trade. Caravans can visit other faction bases and trade with them. Faction bases have more stock and better prices than traders who come and visit your colony. Caravans can attack faction bases. The game generates a simple faction base map with defenders and loot, and you raid it. If you defeat the defenders, you can move in and take over the base (for now, generated bases are quite simple.) Caravans can settle and form new colonies. You can abandon your bases to shift to new ones. Caravans move at different speeds depending on the biome, the time of year (cold biomes close off with the winter snows), local hilliness, the movement speeds of people in the caravan, and whether there are wounded to carry. It is possible to abandon people and items from caravans. Abandoning people will, depending on the context, produce sad thoughts from their friends and relatives, especially if you abandon them in circumstances that seem impossible to survive. Travel victory New game ending: A friendly person offers a ship, but it is distant, across the world map. If you travel there, you can escape the planet and complete the game. But, traveling there will take a long time and you’ll need to stop at various points to build up supplies or solve problems. Transport pods You can build transport pod launchers and transport pods. These let you launch their contents long distances across the world map, over oceans or mountains. Pods can be targeted on empty world tiles, to send a caravan of people and gear there. Pods can be targeted on enemy bases, where you can perform “drop-in” raids and drop right on top of the base, or drop outside it – just like raiders do to you! Pods can be targeted on existing combat maps or other bases you control. This allows you to do things like resupply an ongoing siege with artillery shells (just like raiders do when besieging you), reinforce a weak caravan that just got ambushed, or send supplies and people between two bases you control. Pods are loaded by selecting several and creating a “launch group”. An interface like that for creating caravans appears, allowing you to define what and who should be included. The colonists do the detail work. Transport pods require chemfuel, which can be bought, founded, drilled from the ground, or refined from wood or food using the new refinery building.
