🌊 Welcome to BrineSpace

BrineSpace is a card-driven roguelite colony builder set aboard an underwater station on a distant alien world.

Draw room cards, expand your station one module at a time, and keep your tiny colony alive while balancing resources, research, infrastructure, and whatever problems the depths decide to throw at you.

Build the hand you're dealt and see how far your colony can go. 

✨ Features

🃏 Card-Driven Building — Draw room cards and decide how your station develops. Every run gives you a different set of choices.

🚧 Early Development

BrineSpace is currently in early development. Systems, balance, artwork, content, performance, and major features may change considerably as development continues.

Expect bugs, unfinished systems, placeholder content, and occasionally something exploding that probably wasn't supposed to.

Feedback is very welcome! 💙

🤖 AI & Development

AI-assisted tools are used in the creation of BrineSpace alongside traditional programming, game design, writing, artwork, and development workflows.

I want to be transparent about the use of these tools, and I'll continue documenting how they're used as the project develops.
