Broke? Looking to work from THE SKY? Join us in AdvertCity! A huge, procedurally generated place, just waiting to be sold all kinds of junk by YOU! #

AdvertCity is a cyberpunk advertising tycoon game. Explore a massive procedural city, and plaster your adverts all over it. Float around a retro vision of cyberspace and post links online. Watch the economy of the city evolve with the effects of your decisions.

FEATURES

  • Massive procedurally generated cities in a procedural landscape.
  • Switch between meatspace and cyberspace at will to get a different perspective.
  • Manage an advertising empire, posting ads online and using physical advertising. Choose your clients and adverts wisely, as you have a reputation to uphold.
  • Influence the economy and growth of the city with your advertising choices.
  • Buy buildings and upgrade your headquarters to expand your influence.
  • Hire employees and unlock new advertising technologies.
  • Take over megacorporations and make the city yours!
  • Simultaneous synchronised soundtracks, an hour-long original music score featuring postrock, jazz and glitch elements.
  • Roguelike single-save system.
  • Beautiful graphics but runs great on older computers – it will even run on that old notebook where nothing else will!
  • Download for Windows, Linux or OS X.

KICKSTARTER

The original build was created in just seven days for the Cyberpunk Jam. After our Alpha build, we launched a
successful Kickstarter to take the game into Beta and beyond. A year later, the game is finally complete and ready to play!
