[h1]Attention Citizens! [/h1] We have our first public demo soon! Wow! ヽ(*・ω・)ﾉ Big ol' thanks for being here with us - we're so jazzed to share more details about the game as we start getting closer to both the demo and Early Access! If you want to see more neat stuff feel free to follow us on Steam, [url=https://discord.com/invite/brimstone]Discord[/url], or other social internet places! But first lets talk about; [h2]POWER LIFTING[/h2] One of the core pieces of Overthrown is the players ability to lift anything in the world! A mechanic we tossed in from the frustrations of putting things a few tiles too high and from friends placing item chests not aligned with the other chests (and having to then destroy stuff and say bye-bye to resources because you have to rebuild them). ( ╯°□°)╯ ┻━━┻ Don't like where your butchery is? Want to change the design of your whole kingdom? Just lift it up and toss it anywhere on the grid at any time! If you want more ease you can toggle a top-down view to power throw it onto the grid from halfway across the map!

Put it on and you can lift up anything you want from boulders to gigantic oak trees to your ol' soup kitchen! ╰( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )つ──☆*:・ﾟ [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45110644/336aa8ada68f183962062084f5d2378b5006c2e1.gif[/img] [h2]Okay, But Lets Make It More Interactable[/h2] Okay, so lifting makes building easier but what else is it good for? Everything! We really wanted to craft a super playful and interactable lil' game. While your Sawyers can go cut down trees, what if you could just throw your tree into the sawmill to speed up plank production? What if you could... lift up your sawmill and sprint through the forest and have it automatically absorb all the trees while your citizens watch in horror? [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45110644/20f37a61d64a00bc27dd6d7a2fcdf4b3949d0934.gif[/img] Different buildings will be able to absorb their aligning resources! Toss stuff at stuff and see what it it does! Everything also makes a great weapon too (I like annihilating Outlaws by throwing Citizens I hate at them). ┐(︶▽︶)┌ [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45110644/94b3ad9b81a6a51b1b956bb7ce5feeb752e51c18.gif[/img] I hope this mechanic brings more chaos into your cool ol' gaming life! And always always always feel free to share your thoughts when it comes to anything about the game! We're here to develop this together alongside all of you so your feedback is immensely important super welcome! Check back soon for an announcement on the public demo!
