CLOUD DWELLERS is a 2D city-building strategy game set on floating islands, where development proceeds through resource extraction, production chain setup, and gradual domination of the skies. It all starts with a small settlement but quickly evolves into a complex system where it's important not just to build but to connect everything into a functioning network. Islands that need to be connected into a system Resources are scattered across various areas, and to use them efficiently, building placement and routes must be carefully considered. Raw materials must be processed, transported, and transformed into more complex components. If there is an overload or shortage anywhere, it impacts the entire chain, requiring constant reorganization of production and the search for more efficient layouts. New islands open up additional opportunities, but require investment and preparation. Technology, automation, and more complex mechanisms emerge, accelerating development. Ultimately, the game gradually shifts from survival to optimization, where the primary goal is to build a system that can operate reliably and without constant intervention. Features of the game Urban development on flying islands. Production chains and resource processing. Development of new territories. Transition to automation and technology.
