The Tomorrow Children is the story of a future re-imagined from the after-effects of an experiment in 1960s Russia that attempted to ‘sublime’ the human race, or meld all human minds into one global consciousness. Unfortunately it went wrong and decimated the planet, and it took the next 90 years for the few humans left to rebuild to the point where they have created you, the player, as a ‘projection clone’. You’re tasked with venturing out into ‘The Void’ to reclaim the human race and restore it to its former glory!
The early access Founders Pack includes the following premium paid content ($19.99, includes more than $30 worth of content):
- Bourgeoisie papers — This is your first step to becoming a resident of The Void. By earning the “rezidenty” status, player’s will have the privilege to participate in creating structures and items to build your town, access to new tools, and the ability to build your very own house within the town. Also includes five F2P invitations to send to friends.
- Lv1 Arms License — Unlocks access to higher-tier weapons at the weapons dealer in town (purchase items with in-game currency earned by completing various labor tasks).
- Lv1 Tools License — Unlocks access to higher tier tools at the tool dealer in town (purchase items with in-game currency earned by completing various labor tasks).
- Eagle Corp. Jetpack — This high-end Black Market paid item will take you to new heights, allowing you to reach otherwise inaccessible areas on tops of “islands” to mine resources and find hidden items.
- Special costume — “Miner Gear” costume to customize your in-game “projection clone” character.
- Exclusive PSN avatar pack — This is a pack containing three exclusive PSN avatars limited to the Founders Pack.
- 1000 Freeman Dollars — Currency that can be used at the black market to purchase a variety of high-powered weapons, tools, and more, and can also be used as bribes to government officials for quick personal benefit. (This is separate from the in-game credits collected from the town’s City Hall after completing various labor tasks, which are used at the normal vendors in town.)
- Invites — Bourgeoisie Paper holders will also receive five invitations to send to their friends, granting them access to the F2P game client before full public release. Invited comrades can enjoy the F2P game for free, and upgrade their experience with the Founders Pack if they choose.
The Tomorrow Children will later become available to download for FREE.
And current founders will (later in an update in September) be able to invite up to 5 people to play prior to the launch of FTP.
There are five core resources necessary for expanding and maintaining towns; food, wood, coal, metal, and crystal. These have a variety of uses, and balancing these is essential to survival.
- Food: Grows on trees, and is necessary to keep citizens fed. Comrades can craft saplings to plant in town in order to keep a food source near, but…
- Wood: Trees grow on certain islands, and saplings will also mature into trees. Wood is needed for building certain structures, and for repairing damaged structures.
- Coal: Deposits are found on certain islands. Coal is used in crafting certain items, and to recharge Hover Cars.
- Metal: Deposits are found on certain islands. Metal is used in crafting certain items, and to improve the Town Hall.
- Crystals: Obtained by defeating Izverg. Small and mid-size Izverg will drop 1, 2, or 3 crystals when defeated, and large Izverg have crystal deposits inside their remains. Stationary Izverg will turn into crystal when defeated. Crystals are used in crafting items, and can be used to stabilize a portion of the Void by activating them with the Square button.
- Bourgeoisie Papers - Handbook proving registration as Bourgeoisie.
- Arms Licence - Allows usage of firearms (Dynamite, Shotguns, and Rocket Launchers).
- Tool Licence - Allows usage of tools (Jackrammers, Night Vision, and Stretchguns).
- Vehicle Licence - Allows usage of vehicles (Jetpacks, Hover Cars and Hover Tanks).
- Dexterity: Affects work speed and critical hit rate
- Fortitude: Affects max Phase Cohesion energy
- Might: Affects weapon attack power
- Patriotism: Affects Toil to Coupon conversion rate
- Agility: Affects movement speed and power generation
- Strength: Affects throw and kick power, allows you to carry more resources*
*10 points to carry one additional resource
Equipment:
- If you face downwards with the chainsaw you can use it to cut a circle beneath your feet, digging straight down.
- You can climb ladders faster by holding down triangle.
Bus:
- While on the Bus you can use the shoulder buttons to change between cameras.
- Placing items onto the loading area will automatically be picked up by the Bus, you do not have to manually load the Bus yourself.
Resources:
- The Town Hall can be upgraded by depositing Metal into it.
- Crystals can be placed into the ground using square to help stabilize the void (sinking areas)
- The mushrooms you find on the islands (which usually get sent back to town to provide lighting/decoration) can be eaten like fruit, giving you a temporary glow. Good for mining in the dark!
- Resources can be kicked and thrown using the triangle button.
- Stop wasting resources! Don't aim at the middle of a resource deposit, consuming it all in a single cut. Make thinner cuts, and pull 2-3 times as many resources from the same deposit. Or more!! Shovels are great for efficient shaving; stand on top, and start with a corner.
