Description
About This Game
NeoTerra is a strategy city builder and survival game based on what would hypothetically happen to our planet and human civilization, if it got ejected from Solar system into the void of space. It would be an unstoppable global apocalypse, where humans would have a very small chance to save themselves. Even if equipped with technology decades beyond our contemporary advancements.
Thus, NeoTerra offers a glimpse to a near future where humanity works towards surviving in vaults deep underground. To complicate things further, the setting is placed after the collapse of our current civilization.
We have started to rebuild our world anew, but it was not an easy task. Not at all. Thankfully, it is finally starting to bear fruit and give us some space to breathe! Now there is a young generation which knows the Fall only from the tales of elders and from the rare recordings we have protected. Nature has healed by a large part…people probably too. Hope is rising, even if slowly. Surely, we are far from the peak of past civilization, but our goals are not the same anymore.
After all that, despite our best efforts, there is an even bigger calamity coming our way. Some would surely dismiss it as nonsense, rather than face this terrible prediction. And again, almost ironically, it is something we knew about for a long time, but ignored in the face of more urgent events. If the Initiative is right, there is a lonely star approaching our solar system at tremendous speed. Its passing will likely throw our planet out of the Sun's embrace into the void of space.
There is nothing we can do to stop it. We can only attempt to survive."
Nevertheless, the clock ticks mercilessly onward with every decision you make.
Managing the needs of your population, underground survival efforts, and the effects from the surrounding world will be a hard but necessary task to balance.
Thus, NeoTerra offers a glimpse to a near future where humanity works towards surviving in vaults deep underground. To complicate things further, the setting is placed after the collapse of our current civilization.
THE BEGINNING
"It has been almost thirty years since the end of the Long Fall. Humankind had suffered so much during that period, it is beyond comprehension. Billions perished, and many more had their lives turned to hell. Even these numbers…billions…of people, are inconceivable in our present time. No wonder it all collapsed under the sheer weight of the masses…We have started to rebuild our world anew, but it was not an easy task. Not at all. Thankfully, it is finally starting to bear fruit and give us some space to breathe! Now there is a young generation which knows the Fall only from the tales of elders and from the rare recordings we have protected. Nature has healed by a large part…people probably too.

Luckily, you will be backed by one of the most influential factions which exist in this bleak futuristic world, and will have a clear goal ahead.Nevertheless, the clock ticks mercilessly onward with every decision you make.

While your beginnings will be humble and slow, your effort and progress may lead to a bustling city and a project of magnitude not seen in a long time.Managing the needs of your population, underground survival efforts, and the effects from the surrounding world will be a hard but necessary task to balance.
