Hey everyone, The Steam Next Fest starts today! You can already download the demo for Sapiens, which allows players to explore and build throughout 2 in-game days. This gives you a good idea of the game's core mechanics and how you can start off your tribe. Ill also be livestreaming today, June 13, at 9:00pm EST / 6:00pm PST. For new players, heres a few of my best tips:

Build many storage areas! They take no time or resources, but it will slow down your advancement if you dont have a free one available for a new type of resource.
It will be easier to advance quicker if you find a larger tribe to start with, and its a good idea to find a spot with lots of trees nearby.
Dont queue up too many orders. Sapiens will pick the closest task to them that matches their needs and roles. The easiest way for you to direct them where you want is to limit their options.
Flax is a key resource, required to bind advanced tools together. If you want to get far in the demo with tool building, you will need to find and investigate flax early.

And if you havent seen it yet, check out the trailer below! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFI3anJLhBg Head over to the Discord server to share your feedback and hear the latest news about the Early Access release. Hope you all enjoy Next Fest!

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.
