All the World's an Autostage

Autonauts
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

IT'S BEEN ANOTHER busy month at Autonauts HQ where we’ve been mostly merrily making more missions and persistently pursuing possible publishing partnerships (all alluringly alliterative there). It’s fair to say that we are slowly but surely moving forwards in both areas.

The first two Ages - currently (boringly, granted) called “The Prehistoric Age” and “The Ancient Past” - are coming together nicely now after an ongoing cycle of playing and creating and adding and removing and adjusting and whatnot. These periods focus on inventing tools, building a base camp, assembling a basic Bot crew and getting an automated smallscale forestry and farm up and running in readiness to grow, feed and shelter colonists. That takes you up to the discovery of crude metal and the cusp of “The Middle Ages,” which is where you start to construct small colonist villages and the automation requirements ramp up.
