Avaneya is a cerebral science fiction game set on Mars. If you enjoyed the game mechanics of SimCity and some of the artistic themes of Blade Runner, you will enjoy Avaneya. Avaneya will be released under the GPLv3 Avaneya combines the perfect blend of the metropolis city builder social simulation and cooperative multiplayer. Players creatively craft beautiful cities and watch as they form civic and cultural lives of their own driven by sophisticated artificial intelligence.The most complex part of Avaneya is its underlying social simulation engine which can simulate inner city decay, gentrification, traffic flow, population density, crime, education, pollution, and more. Our simulation engine is currently under active development since it received the technical and financial support of the National Research Council of Canada in the Summer of 2017. In late 2013 we announced that we had developed and released the technology to recover substantial quantities of NASA's previously inaccessible Viking mission data, subsequently cited by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The historic billion–dollar mission to Mars was the most ambitious in history. Launched in 1975, it was the first to successfully reach and photograph the surface of the Red Planet. Originally intended as an internal research tool for our artists, public interest motivated its external release. Software DVDs were made available for purchase, but we sold out!Avaneya is by no means a new project. It's already received many thousands of man hours. Now we're counting on your financial support to help us take things to the next level and develop the underlying simulation engine, artwork, and more.
