..✧ gameplay mechanics ✧..

the goal of the game is to improve the living conditions of your neighborhood. You live in a post-apocalyptic society in which you discover an old computer, and thus, the internet. Your character will go through various *quests* to reinstate a DIY internet connection so that everyone in the neighborhood can easily communicate and connect with each other. You will also help start up pirate radio stations with each NPC, so every character will provide a new genre of music. Each radio station will have a range, and as you open up new DIY internet connections, the range of the radio stations will broaden. Thus, eventually you can listen to any station anywhere you are. The more music = the happier the town.

The gameplay will be akin to that of harvest moon, chulips, or animal crossing. You decide your plan for the day. There will be a time cycle but it would be slower and not as punishing - if you stay up all night there wouldn’t be much consequences, since there will be no stamina bar. (kinda like how in skyrim you don’t really need to sleep.)
