Manifest Destiny is a survival strategy game revolving around the very early 19th century, otherwise known as the period of western expansion in America. You, as the player, are tasked with expanding the American colonies further west. As you do so you must construct a town consisting of a wide variety of buildings. You must manage the town's finances, stocks such as food and money, and trade. However it won't be very easy as other towns contest with you for resources and will stop at nothing to gain the upper hand. Think of this concept as a similar game to Ceaser, however of a different era.

Posted by on

Hey guys, came up with a list of basics for the concept!

1. Farming
-wheat, carrots, livestock.

2. Water
-wells, natural springs.

3. Hunting
-deer, buffalo, etc.

4. Population Growth
-settlers begin to arrive to your land and become permanent residence, requiring food, shelter, and water.

5. One Character Control
-you, the player, will control a single starting character in game.

6. Prison Architect style view
-The game will be a top-down style view. (similar to the way Prison Architect looks in game).

7. Hydration, Hunger, Shelter, Tempature
-AI characters must eat, drink, sleep, and have a way to stay warm or cool.

8. Construction
-the player must take the tole of the leader and build houses, barns, saloons, banks, fields, wells, and so on, with the help of settlers that arrive.

9. Citizen Management
-as leader of the town the player must assign tasks and jobs to the settlers that arrive and become permanent residents.

10. Mayoral Elections
-once enough settlers have arrived a democratic process can begin! with voting based on issues the town faces! (I am personally excited for this!)

11. Law Enforcement
-bring wrong doers to justice and protect the town from outlaws and crime!

12. Outlaws
-Outlaws want what you have, so don't let them push you around!

13. Sickness
-sickness will spread amongst the towns people, so keep it in check with a doctor.

14. Expansion
-trade with other towns, and increase the size of your town!

Thanks guys!
