Not sure if this is 'too early' to show if honest, but maybe it will keep me motivated.

Very early protoype of the 'Build Mode' segment of the game whereby the player expands the station to allow for higher 'tier' technology to be installed.

Will post the concept behind the game soon.

Would love to get feedback on the basic idea.

Is this gonna be a tycoon? The expansion system looks great!

Thanks 🙂

And no it's not going to be a tycoon game. The 'story' is heavily inspired by Homeworld (the first one), in the intro it's mentioned that the mothership would take 60 years to build etc. and I thought that the period of time and building of the Dock and Mothership is a lost opportunity for a game, but obviously I can't use the Homeworld IP. So the basic idea is that the station is being built as a building platform for a large colony ship (which will be part of the game. At a certain point you'll be able to unlock colony ship parts as well as station parts to start building the colony ship. There will be a 'new' section of the station that you can build on the bottom which will be the colony ship dock, and from there add ship parts etc).
