It's long overdue, but I'm finally tackling one of the major points that is still open. Building the interface.
Not the most fun, but of major importance.

Concept art of the first tier unit in my upcoming base building game: the worker. Workers keep your colony running by performing the most basic, yet important tasks, like:
➡ Hauling supplies
➡ Stocking workshops
➡ Running the marketplace

While digging there is a change to stumble upon tombs or ruins of ancient civilisations.
🔍 You can make your units explore them to find out what lies inside.

If your units encounter natural obstructions like ponds, they need to take the long way around.
🛠️ Fortunately, it is now possible to build bridges!

Working on environments and caves.
When expanding your colony you can stumble on natural caves. You can integrate them in your colony, or build around them.
Caves will also be a great place for your units to forage or catch fish.

Some early footage of setting op de fundaments of a new colony. Dig rooms, build and decorate chambers and set your units to work.
Please note this is pre-alpha footage, so missing animations, the UI and additional polish are coming soon. 🛠️

Here is the first draft of a new unit tier. The worker 📦
After some testing it became clear a new unit type for the most basic jobs was necessary. Like hauling supplies, stockpiling rooms and running the market.

Dump in a bunch of units and see how the job system handles it.
I did a small stress test of the job system and it holds up pretty well, but I did found room for some improvement 💡

All units pick a job appropriate for their tier. For example:
➡️ An artisan smelts iron ore to ingots.
➡️ Miners dig out and build new rooms.
➡️ And the farmer... doesn’t have a job yet, so hangs out in the dormitory all day 😅

Entering the end of the year, I got a lot of the systems done for my underground colony builder 🎉
Next year the focus is on content; more units, room types, and a lot of stuff to explore. And finally a Steam page of course.
Hopefully see you then🎆

Some early interface design concepts for my upcoming game. I aim to deliver a good quality on both the visual aspect as the user experience, since I'm also a designer by trade.
I only just started. A lot can change, and I still need to figure out how to get it in engine 😅

Your miners will now dig the chambers, lay floors and reinforce the walls, ready for you to build new rooms.
Still in need for some visual polish, but the logic for are the construction jobs is ready 😊

Currently finetuning the job system. With multiple jobs available, a unit needs to pick the most logical job. The player can influence this by setting the priority of a job type higher or lower.
I’m using a utility system to achieve this, which works great.

Due to a happy little accident I spawned way to much supplycrates. 📦📦📦
A great oppurtunity for some thorough testing of the hauling system I guess. 😅
