Description
Earth and the core worlds are suffering. Overpopulation and lack of resources are leading to unrest and desperation. That's where you come in. You've been recruited to colonize a planet more than 4 light years away. It's your job to save the human race from its own greed and consumption. The game is experienced from a top-down view allowing for the deliberate and creative crafting of every item, vehicle, and structure in use. Using a scriptable and dynamic artificial intelligence the AI Overlord will change up every aspect of the game. Nothing stays the same forever, making Worlds an addictively, dynamic experience with limitless replayability.
History
Afterthought Games came to be when a couple guys decided it would be fun to make games we would want to play. One of the first things that came up was a sandbox/rpg/scifi/open world randomness game. So Violent Sol was born.

About Afterthought Games
Boilerplate
Afterthought Games was started in Grand Rapids Michigan by a group of developers. We have varied skill sets but all share a common goal. We want to do this as our full-time job. We all have full-time jobs currently, though with a lot of hard work, we hope that one day this will be all we do. There are a lot of indie development companies out there and we are not that much different than any of them. We are just trying to be passionate about what we do and always have fun doing it.
