FloCity

FloCity is a city builder about managing energy, resources and time as your city grows around a network of canals. You reshape shorelines, dig canals for AI ships and develop plots around busy ports, while working to build enough houses before the resource island sinks.

Dig canals and guide ships

AI ships carry resources from the sinking donut to the inner ports of hungry cities. You design canal networks to keep their traffic moving, solving routing puzzles as ships travel through the waterways. Urban-scale valves interact with the ships, alongside transformable architecture, changeable corridors and falling sculptures.

Grow the city

Canal routes affect shipping speed and port activity. Busy ports raise the value of nearby land, encouraging the skyline to grow; that growth can lead to traffic jams, which call for more canal digging. This creates a cycle of canal construction, faster traffic, active ports, rising land values and further city development.

See the city from within

The game can generate minimalist architecture ranging from Mediterranean and Kyoto styles to Soviet cities and space settings. After fast-forwarding the city’s growth, you can relax in the interiors of a yacht, airship or space capsule. The sinking donut frames the game’s focus on the relationship between desire and the speed at which resources are consumed.
