IndieCade :

For the occasion, I'm updating the demo with the version the jury will play until November 16th! It features:
 

  • The first story level with 3 difficulty modes, where you'll learn how to build your city and defend against darkness.

  • The first challenge level, procedurally generated with a unique gameplay twist.

  • The first puzzle level, focused on problem-solving and city optimization, plus a daily puzzle that changes every day.

  • The endless level, a vast procedural map where your only goal is to survive and thrive (still very experimental).

  • Tons of fixes and small improvements added over the past months and thanks to the latest open playtest (see results).


IndieCade Europe was the first game development event I attended as a student. Meeting incredible developers there motivated me to pursue game development as my career. I'm deeply honored that my game has been nominated for IndieCade 2024.
  Key Features:

 

  • Portable: A Strategy Game with short sessions, designed to be played on the go or at home.

  • Easy to learn: No endless tutorials or convoluted menus - you can dive right in and start building.

  • Incentivize Discovery: Go back to the roots of gaming, where exploration and experimentation were the key to fun and discovery.

  Game Title: Dawnfolk
Genre: Survival City-Builder
Release window: 2025
