I work in healthcare, very long hours, and often in hectic circumstances. It's easy to get tired and stressed with challenging people - anger, yelling, random abuse. It's easy to become misanthropic and annoyed at people.
This game is amazingly calming. There's no people in it, no loud noises, no violence - only a cutely-rendered slice of environmental peace. There's a wonderful sense of solitude and quiet dignity in this game. It's challenging enough to keep you focused but not so much that you get frustrated with it.
Terra Nil is a terrific antidote to those stressful moments that we all get, from time to time. The concept is very creative; there should be more games about terraforming and environmental modification without a concern for growth, profit or power. It demonstrates the divergent scope of creativity that can be found in gaming.
Give it a try. Better yet, play it all the way through and send the developers a donation - creativity like this should be rewarded.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, and I hope you smile when you see the rain finally come down.
This is beautiful, I really like the pixel art aesthetic, too! Just saying, I see the Steam version departed from it towards a more contemporary style, still, I like this :)
Edit: Played it through. Pleasantly challenging, and so rewarding to see everything coming to life!
guy i'm soo happy to see your game on steam i will buy it without doubt when he will be out, i play it on 2020 and i don't know how to say that in english but in my mother tongue i would have say "un coup de coeur" i make something like all my friend i saw in the week try this game
Love this! Absolutely awesome, the art the music the gameplay and concept are all topnotch! Usually I suck at games, but the Zen mode and easy setting really helps.
Just played the Steam demo on my Youtube channel! I'm looking forward to this one, though I do have a few concerns I discuss in my video. Feel free to go have a look!
I was moved by the way in which all biodiversity returns to its habitat, after everything has been a wasteland, I zoomed in on the bear and every little animal and insect that was around. This game is a great piece, there would have to be thousands of games like that, that create awareness about what surrounds us, beautiful 10/10
Hello, it's me again, it would be good that after the barren island, there is an island with cities, some abandoned and others to reform eco-friendly, it would be very incredible, there should be a menu where you can do cooperative economics, along the campaign, and one last island in the ocean with plastics and others, even if I get carried away, haha
hola, soy yo otra vez, estaría bueno que luego de la isla yermo, alla isla con ciudades, unas abandonadas y otras para reformar eco-amigable, seria muy increible, deberia haber un menú donde poder hacer economía cooperativa, a lo largo de la campaña, y una última isla en el océano con los plasticos y demas, aunque me deje llevar, jaja
Idk what the game is like yet i havent started it, but there no settings. You can only change music and sfx volumes but thats it. No getting out of fullscreen or changing quality or anything. Can you guys please add that?

Is it too heavy for Android?
Nice, quiet game. If you like planing ahead, I highly recommend.

画风很治愈 玩法很休闲 我喜欢这个游戏<3
Really awesome concept. I was really stressed the other day. And i relaxed in some way. Thank you game devs!!
I would like to say I love this game on Nintendo Switch :) great job.

Talk about challenging. I don't know how many times I played to beat the last level. I lost count... I love this game.
fun little game when youre bored
i played this game during the pandemic and i loved it. Now i can play it on Netflix and i am happier than ever before. I really wish you all the best.
This is a really really cool game, it’s sad that the third level is impossible
It's not impossible lol. The final level is the real challenge.
damn that thing must be h a r d
Will this be available on android?
I love the prototype, it would be sad not to try the finished game also: when might it become available on Itch, too?
I was reminded of Terra Nil after the feature in the Guardian, well done :)
I'm very glad to have found this game.

Wow thanks for the amazing comment @camduck - it's so incredible and motivating for us to hear <3
Hopefully you'll enjoy the remake as much <3
Amazing!

This game is the best ever! With making the planet more beautiful as its concept, I think it's one of the greatest environment games here. Keep it up!
10/10 btw
Thank you :) - you should check out our new version of the game on Steam
Alr, I will!

Very nice and chill game :)
its a realy good game i like the idea i think i have a older version its called terra nil 6.0 . you realy need to downlaod it
Just played the Steam demo on my Youtube channel! I'm looking forward to this one, though I do have a few concerns I discuss in my video. Feel free to go have a look!
I really, really like the idea of the game and turning the city-building genre on its head. I'm looking forward to the full release :D
Such a great game! Very fun and strategic, but not stressful and very calming. :) Got 508 in the first area
I've enjoyed this. Will the full version be released on Itch?
I wish there was a beta version so I could play it on browser like Minedustry

These are some good ideas, I hope the devs can work on some of them in the full game. Wishlisted on Steam!
which version should I download? 32 bit windows.zip or 32 bit windows.zip?

The full game is a sure sell to me :). Awesome chill gameplay. **edit Preordered it with a down payment ;-)
Awesome game, reminds me of simAnimals. Also I made a video of the new demo. I am looking forward to it.
Reminds me of ANNO 2070. Minus bang-bang-boom-boom, which isn't so much fun in a game like this anyway.
