Hi everyone, I'm majicDave, and this is Sapiens! Sapiens will be launching into Early Access soon, and you can expect a release date announcement within the next few weeks. With the launch fast approaching, it's time to share more about where the game is at and how development is going. If you want to get a good overview, the latest devlog video is a great place to start: [previewyoutube=CQt5R0pd9WI;full][/previewyoutube] Since recording the video, I've added new musical instruments to accompany the flute, a balafon and log drum. It's great when the sapiens get together and play.
Music talent is a personality trait, some sapiens will pick it up faster than others, and some sapiens will actually get sad if they haven't played or heard music lately. But if you assign a few sapiens from your tribe to the music role, then whenever they start to feel the need, they'll go and pick up a musical instrument, find a place by a campfire, and start playing. Then all of the near by sapiens will get a mood boost too. A new trailer is in the works, which will be published soon, and I've added new weather effects for rain and snow too, which adds a huge amount to the ambience.
I'll be posting more frequent updates from now on, so see you again soon!

Sapiens is the debut PC title from solo developer Dave Frampton, known for Blockheads, Chopper, and Chopper 2.

In Sapiens you create your own prehistoric civilization. Lead your tribe from the ground, immersed in the world while you shape it. Build towns and industry with complete freedom and control, from placing the tiniest pebble to constructing monumental structures. Start with nothing and advance through thousands of years of technological breakthroughs in this intimate yet expansive colony sim.

Choose Your Home

Pick from thousands of procedurally generated lands across a map larger than Earth itself. Choose wisely, as each area has different climates, resources, and challenges. Finding the right place to begin your home is key to growing your civilisation.

Lead Your People

Walk the paths beside your people as you lead them through this uncharted world. Instruct individual sapiens to focus on specific tasks, such as planting crops, gathering materials, building, hunting, cooking, and more. Watch as they learn new skills, making them more valuable to your tribe. Manage their moods, health, and support their growing families.

Find Resources

Find new resources and send your sapiens to investigate, leading to new breakthroughs which unlock new things to build and craft. Start with primitive materials and work your way up to using more advanced tools and techniques.

Build A Civilization

Build shelters, both to keep your sapiens happy and to preserve food and resources. Every wall, roof, seat or fireplace can be placed individually. Each tree, log, plank or rock can be removed or situated, and the terrain can be dug, mined or filled to shape the world the way you want.

Expand Your Reach

Send sapiens over long distances and establish camps to gather far away resources. Create transportation networks to bring those resources back to your base for processing or storage. Send a group to explore over great distances, or conduct a hunting mission. Take down a mammoth to feed and clothe your tribe for months, but know that you may lose some sapiens trying.

Sapiens features extensive mod support through Steam Workshop.
