Single-player PC game played in the 3rd person, Revive & Prosper is a factory builder with automation and resource management set in a post-apocalyptic world plagued by natural disasters..
On individual maps with dynamic terrain and real water simulation, players guide mutants from manual labor to full automation using belts, trains and even catapults for delivering items.
Starting in the so-called Wooden age where all the buildings are manually made of wood, stone and soil and aiming for the space age and Mars terraforming.
The first campaign map serves as a tutorial.
Players learn how to control the game and what they can expect from weather and disasters while playing on the Survival difficulty.
Players experience the first meteor, lightning storm and fire from a safe distance.
The goal of the tutorial map is to deliver items to the end teleporter using a catapult.
Terrain, Water & Moisture:
Utilize voxel-based terrain with slopes for natural, walkable designs. Realistic water simulation features moisture moving from water to soil, influencing ecological processes.
Soil & Vegetation:
Monitor soil moisture stages, from dry to wet soil, supporting grass and flower growth. Toxic soil impacts vegetation. Different plants serve as raw food or resources for technology.
Characters:

Factories:
Factories process resources into items or other resources, fostering automation as your base expands. Generate torque power through windmills or water mills to power factories.
Transportation:
Choose between manual, belt-based, catapult, teleport, or train transportation methods to move items efficiently.
Technology:
Travel through ages and technological advancements, mining resources, and utilizing new power sources like electricity. Upgrade existing infrastructure for seamless progression.
Campaign & Tutorials:
Enjoy a campaign introducing new mechanics and a gradual learning curve. The first level serves as an in-depth tutorial.Editor:
Access a fully functional map editor to design your own maps and share them with the community.
Disasters:
Picture meteors and lightning storms tearing through your once peaceful landscapes, setting everything ablaze. But fear not – we're handing you the reins with water cannons and sprinklers to douse those flames and safeguard your hard-earned resources.
First, let me tell you about the gameplay video you can watch below and then briefly sum up the Digital Dragons conference.
Yesterday, I was submitting our game to a couple of indie game festivals.
One of them required a gameplay video, so I started recording one.
The video was supposed to show preparations for a rocket launch and the production of needed materials and parts.
But then I noticed one factory missing a lead resource.
This caught my attention, and I just naturally dived into playing and fixing the resource management issue in my production line.
And this is what Revive & Prosper is about: managing resources and improving production lines of factories while heading towards expanding to space by launching a rocket to orbit and later to the Moon and Mars.
With the main goal in mind, you can continually achieve many smaller goals to improve efficiency.
Check the gameplay video here:
We attended the Digital Dragons conference in Krakow, Poland.
In my opinion, gaming events and conferences are truly important for indie game marketing, community building, and receiving valuable feedback.
Digital Dragons additionally offers a bonus with the high quality of the whole conference, the organization and the overall wholesome vibe. So that next year's visit is inevitable for us.
In the picture, you can see the mighty hand of Revive & Prosper's creator Pavel Jiri Strnad.
Hope you enjoyed this update, let me know in the comments.
