The year is 40XX and the entire planet is underwater. Nearly all territory is owned by The Company and the livelihoods of most are similarly entangled with their machinations. An already limited food supply is tightly controlled and noncompliance with The Company’s myriad regulations means certain death by starvation.

While many have made their peace with life under The Company’s tyranny, a small subset of the population still believe in the existence of The Cycene - a magical relic that’s said to have once solved world hunger.

You are an Auger, a “fixer” for The Company, assigned to their latest acquisition: an expansive structure called The Basin, which may or may not have been built by The Cycenians.

Is The Company looking for The Cycene?

Does The Basin hold the secrets of its location or the fate of The Cycenians?

Does a lowly Auger such as yourself even care?

Live service games. You know them, you love them, you give them all your hard earned money.

Cycene is not just any live service game, it’s about to become your new way of life. Forget Fortnite. Drop Destiny. Renege Roblox. Those games are over now that Cycene is here.

But at what cost?

For over a decade, I’ve made the mistake of releasing the overwhelming majority of my games for FREE despite living in a capitalist hellscape where cash is king. Have you previously enjoyed the spoils of my labor at no expense of your own?

Well, I have a family now, so the bill has finally come due.  It’s time to pay up, pal.

WARNING: Cycene is in Earliest Access. The scope and scale of this project is massive - possibly the most ambitious to ever exist. It may be months, years, maybe even decades before my vision for it is truly realized. Do not purchase if you want to experience a finished product.

DO purchase if you don’t want to get FOMO when your grandkids are hopelessly addicted to it.
