Hey Guys!,

This is Shane and Jeremy over at TouchTilt Games.

We're two guys busy working on our first title called Buildanauts for desktop and then console. In our game, you can build a town anyway you want from the ground up in this open-world construction simulator.



HOUSE DESIGN
http://www.indiedb.com/games/buildanauts/videos/buildanauts-pre-alpha-house-design

In this video we'll take an early look at drafting your house design from scratch. First you'll want to pick land to plot on. Land plots always have to be attached to a sidewalk and require a laser level tool (currently not shown here). Once you've decided on a design in DESIGN mode, including windows, doors, stairs, texture, colour, roof etc, your workers will then come in and enter the BUILD phase of your vision.
You will have the ability to choose from a number of house trimming-styles, but Buildanauts will be based on your earned currency to spend on the materials needed to build your town.

SIDEWALK BUILDING
http://www.indiedb.com/games/buildanauts/videos/buildanauts-pre-alpha-sidewalk-building

In this video we're showing early work on the creation of sidewalks. In over-head mode, you'll have the ability to create sidewalks, among other things, based on the money you have available. Once you've actually placed the framing of the sidewalk, your workers will come in and build it. This feature is missing at this point.



We'll soon have a pre-alpha trailer ready in time for Kickstarter and Steam Greenlight launching soon. Hope you can join us there!

Where does the "naut" come into it?

Hey Surt, Naut simply means 'explorer'

Looks promising. I like the little gif advert, it really shows off what tone to expect. Look forward to seeing the pre-alpha trailer!

Here are a couple new GIFS for your giffy pleasure.

The first one is testing out our new excavator climb animation which has numerous triggers and checks:



The second one is simply driving around like a bit of a crazy truck driver in the forest
