Sphere - Flying Cities, the stratosphere-sailing survival city-builder from publisher Assemble Entertainment and developer Hexagon Sphere Games welcomes today a brand new Early Access update titled, “Age and Education.”
The new content introduces aging of the floating city’s denizens, as
well as a full-fledged education system, meaning higher education
(literally) is within grasp for all.
The new life cycles add a realistic element to the sci-fi simulation,
aging citizens through various stages of life, bringing with it all of
the triumphs and troubles that come with the passage of time, including
birth and death cycles. Similarly, inhabitants of the flying city
interested in expanding the population must meet specific reproduction
requirements in order to do so. Luckily for the new busy parents, a “Day
Care Center” is now also available to construct.
In between those finicky stages of early and late-stage life cycles,
denizens can now take part in education programs, allowing skill mastery
and development of new skills through the new “Training Center”. Having
educated citizens means higher efficiency, better buildings, and more.
Watch the trailer for the Age and Education update here:
The Age and Education update also introduces a reworked energy
management system, as well as many new buildings including the training
center, day-care center, and energy storage. Find more details about
future updates in the updated Roadmap on Steam. Want to know more about the development of this exciting new foray into the skies? Check out the latest Devlog #2 ‘The balancing act of difficulty levels’.
