When the Old World collapsed, humanity fell into chaos. The solar flare destroyed every institution of human civilization, causing people to fend for themselves in a collective frenzy for survival. Your group grew up in such a world, a world of desperate tribalism where the very atmosphere is struggling to stay alive. Now, you seek to restore purpose and unity to humanity while ensuring the continuity of living existence. Though the first project from Core Engage, New Cycle seeks to bring fresh new life to the colony survival genre by improving and reiterating on all of its cornerstones, both narratively and mechanically.
