Our take on SurvAIval
Rather than keeping survival work fully manual, the game turns it into a progression system: AI assistants gradually take over labor while base growth, exploration, and defense continue around that automation.
What is SurvAIval?
SurvAIval combines 2D survival, base construction, resource management, exploration, and automation.
Players gather materials, process them to earn money, and establish a base that can be expanded and defended against goblin attacks. AI assistants can be created and upgraded to handle work, allowing exploration of additional regions and territory expansion. The game includes new characters, allies with demands, skill progression, and dungeon escape sequences. Its open-ended structure lets players set personal objectives while developing the base, expanding the available domain, and choosing how to progress through survival and automation systems.
