#BlossomAndDecay is an open-world socio-economic #sandbox where thousands of players shape their unique stories by influencing each other’s gameplay in meaningful ways.
Narrative emerges from player choices in a wild environment among critters and other players.

Hello! We’re a small indiedev studio based in Germany, developing our first browser-based game Blossom & Decay, an emergent narrative sandbox MMO ARPG. Since 2015, we’ve been building a player-driven world shaped by player actions and choices.

#BlossomAndDecay #indiegame #sandbox #mmo #rpg #gaming

Recently, we’ve worked on multi-biome environments, early and mid-game improvements – crafting, trade, combat, farming, building construction, group and territorial mechanics, and in-game communication and management (groups, territories, and buildings).

#BlossomAndDecay main features: Procedurally generated world

Multi-biome environments with yearly seasons. Each biome features unique climate, wildlife, and resources.
Seamless #procedural generated #openworld without instancing on a highly scalable server infrastructure.

#indiegame #sandbox #mmo

In 2018 we built an action-combat #MMO engine for a procedural world with resources, basic crafting, alchemy, building, smart enemies, climate, and weather.
We also focused on offline AI systems – crafting tasks and management, group defense and route-finding.

#BlossomAndDecay offers different roles and activities, but no single player can do all activities simultaneously or entirely by themselves.
There are no exclusive skill-trees, all activities are open to all players, but take time to learn and practice.

We’ve been working on #BlossomAndDecay since 2015. After a combat demo (2016–2018) and a closed #sandbox demo (2018–2019), we reworked the engine, mechanics, gfx. Since then we've been working on gameplay, onboarding, communication, and group features for the Closed Alpha.

#BlossomAndDecay has no exclusive #crafting skill classes, players learn and level skills by doing. They can learn many trades like carpentry or tailoring.
Higher skill levels unlock faster crafting and advanced items, making specialization choices essential for efficient group progress.

#BlossomAndDecay asynchronous/offline gameplay
When players go offline, characters don't de-spawn, instead the Offline-AI does whatever players have added to their lists. OPCs can build, sell goods, guard, defend themselves, or add to their group's labour pool.
