Ambitious indie game publisher Ravenage Games has revealed its exciting 2023 line-up during today’s PC Gaming Show 2023 Preview. During the event, four new games were announced, strengthening the publisher’s promising 2023 release schedule: turn-based RPG, Untamed Tactics, hand-drawn, Metroidvania BioGun, dark fantasy adventure, Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow, and minimalist real-time resource management game, Master Plan Tycoon. In addition to gameplay reveal trailers, Ravenage Games has published free playable demos for all four games on Steam.
Masterplan Tycoon
Masterplan Tycoon is a real-time strategy game about building interconnected chains of resources in a minimalist visual style. The game is set to arrive on PC via Steam in Q1 2023. A free demo is available now on Steam.
In Masterplan Tycoon, real-time strategy and management sim fans will build interconnected production chains to deliver products to their intended destinations. Nodes are buildings, pins are contact points between them, and links are supply lines. The game will schematically depict all of these elements, allowing players to focus on managing their flow of resources.
Mistakes won’t be penalized. Masterplan Tycoon will prioritize relaxation and immersion through learning. The game will be intuitive from the beginning, but prepare players for more complex logistical challenges later on.
Key Features:
- Supply chains must be configured in particular ways and can’t cross buildings. The more nodes you have, the harder it is to connect them.
- The game immerses you in its core mechanics and opens the world gradually.
- The main challenge of the game is to colonize all available territories and create the largest system you can ever imagine.
- You will not encounter a situation where you have to start the game over because of mistakes you made along the way.
