Let's get into the details, eh?Build: The player is given the ability to build houses, mines, and campfires through an attractive GUI - so long as the player has the resources to do so. These buildings provide food, gold income, and ore income - all of which can be used to the advantage of the player.Gather: In order to proceed in this game, the player must gather resources in order to build. These resources must be hand-gathered by the player, however, the player is not limited to purely gathering. As stated before, all buildings provide a specific bonus to the player's resources.Upgrade:If the player would rather upgrade a previously existing building, they totally can. Not only does this conserve space, but it makes your colony look much nicer.Daily Activity: Each day, the player receives taxes from their colonists. The gold gained from these taxes is required for many buildings, and in order for the player to increase the amount of gold they gain per day, they must increase their colonist count. This can be done by constructing more homes. However, it is important that the player's colonists stay fed. Otherwise, they'll starve.GUI:In The Departure, the GUI is where the player can locate the amounts of a resource they have, current incomes of resources, and daily food costs. If the player wishes it remain unseen for whatever purpose, the may hide it at any time.Actions: When a player enters a resource-gathering area, their action counter increases. Once the player has completed two actions, the day will progress.Saving/Loading: The Departure has a fully-functional save/load system. You won't have to restart time and time again, unless you die.Controls: If the player is unsure which buttons do what, we made a fix for that. At any point, the player can open their pause menu and review the controls. We won't leave you hanging. 6d5b4406ea Title: The DepartureGenre: Indie, Simulation, StrategyDeveloper:FailoutGames, DanLamb47Publisher:FailoutGamesFranchise:FailoutGamesRelease Date: 29 Jan, 2018 The Departure Game will crash on you when you are very to close to the tedious archivement.Then you will realise that this game doesn't use cloud service or auto save so all your progress is gone.EDIT:Game autosaves now got fixed by the dev.Crash also got fixed.Nice game to quickly hunt some archievements not everyone has.
