Night life is raging in the neon-flooded skyscraper canyons of Nivalis. We players should make ourselves the king of bars, restaurants and nightclubs. Or go fishing, decorate our cyberpunk apartment, visit a few NPCs with the flying car. The concept is reminiscent of Stardew Valley, just darker and consisting of voxels.
Nivalis is set in the city of Cloudpunk, which also comes from the Berlin developer Ion Lands. A release date has not yet been set. On Steam
This is what Nivalis offers
Nivalis wants to give you free choice as to how you experience your everyday life. The focus should be on your business, with which you make a living. You found and manage restaurants, noodle shops, nightclubs or a stim shop. Little by little you will become the mogul of Nivalis.
So that the right guests come, you cook your own recipes and mix cocktails. You either buy the ingredients for this or grow them yourself. You also design and decorate your own apartment.
What does that look like? Take a look at the screenshots:

Even more elements are reminiscent of the successful farm simulation Stardew Valley: You can also fish in Nivalis to relax. Or you can take a leisurely stroll to explore the cyberpunk city. Alternatively, you can sit in your flying Hova vehicle and cross the airy streets that are supposed to offer simulated traffic.
Even in Cloudpunk, the city was teeming with flying cars. In case you don’t know the cyberpunk game – editor Elena praises it for all its little stories and the dense atmosphere:

Even more parallels to Stardew Valley: In Nivalis you get to know NPC characters who have their own stories to tell. You can make friends with them if you want.
Nivalis comes with a dynamic day-night change and weather system. This would also ensure the obligatory rain, without which cyberpunk would hardly be imaginable.
