Unlike most games where players can only buy or sell items, Eco will allow players to buy and sell labour. "It will not be possible for one player to specialise in all the skills necessary to build in Eco," developer Strange Loop Games explained. As such, you can choose to operate as a lumberjack, carpenter, or fisherman for example. So if the community sets a law that you can only chop down 10 trees a day, a message will come up preventing you from cutting down any more until the next day.Įco isn't a "god game" as each player will occupy an individual role controlling a human avatar.
To combat trolls jumping into the game and ruining things for everyone, Eco will allow players to vote on rules dictating what folks are allowed to do.

Raze a forest and fail to plant a new one? Uh oh: you've just made a wasteland and wood is that much rarer a commodity. If you're careless about natural resources, they'll disappear for good. The premise of Eco is simple: everyone shares the same planet and must utilise its limited resources to evolve its society to prepare for an impending natural disaster (asteroid, draught, flood, etc). ORIGINAL STORY 7.40pm: Eco, an ambitious ecosystem sim announced back in June, has launched a Kickstarter campaign. For more details, check out the latest Kickstarter update.Īt $200k the servers will be scaled up and at $250k a new biome will be added. There will even be options to rent out properties and the community will be able to organise their own property taxes for this simulated world. Will it be allotted upon entering the world or auctioned off to the highest bidder? Maybe the community will decide to keep all land public or sanction off parts of it as a wildlife reserve. This will allow players to decide how to divvy up property. If it reaches $150k developer Strange Loop Games will add a land ownership system. UPDATE 7.44pm: The Eco Kickstarter has surpassed its $100k goal with 16 days to go before its 9th September deadline.
