Is this the next Frostpunk? - TheMidcoreGamer Plays New Cycle - Part 1 (No Commentary Gameplay)
Played the demo before and had a lot of fun with it... so now, here's the full game!
There are lots of tech and industries to unlock as you progress which is fun. "New cycles", a.k.a. an "age" much like the "bronze age", which segment these tech and industries up so you won't get to unlock all of them at once, are gated behind population and research point (that is generated passively by your population; the more people you have, the faster you'll gain these points) milestones. Because of this, a lot of the time - as you can see from my playthrough as well - I just have the game play itself at max speed... just to make the game time go by faster.
Also note that although your people can produce children who will grow up to become productive members of the community, there are no deaths due to old age in the game, at least none that I've encountered. You can also get more manpower from seemingly random travelling survivors.
Back then, I completed Frostpunk's campaign on my first try on Normal mode but in this case, I had to start with Easy first - I took way too long of a break from gaming, after all - and just to make my playthrough a lot less stressful - I already have enough stress as it is lol.
