Chapter 2: Stranded

You’ve arrived on a mysterious new island. Now, it’s all about gathering that early wood. Chop trees and upgrade your axe to increase your gain. Unlock Peons who passively collect wood for you, and build your first structure.

Design Goals – Stranded Island:

  1. Establish Gameplay Flow
    Introduce the game’s core loop of chopping, upgrading, and building to help players settle into a satisfying rhythm early on.
  2. First Player Choices
    Offer small but meaningful choices—like when to upgrade the axe or unlock Peons—that hint at deeper systems to come.
  3. World Atmosphere & Immersion
    Use the day-night cycle, ambient sounds, and evolving scenery to draw players into the orc island and make it feel alive.
  4. Emotional Bonding Through Humor
    Build a light-hearted connection with the orcs via quirky animations and funny voice lines that spark laughter and affection.

Orcs VR -> Orcs Up! Dev. Update

Hi! Everything is coming together now. Progress is fast, and I am having a lot of fun creating the successor to Orcs X. This time, it’s for VR platforms, initially primarily the Meta Quest (2 and 3).

I have 3 videos in private mode that I am now ready to share. They will go public today (scheduled).
The game title will be Orcs Up! I am already preparing the Meta Store entry while finishing the last elements of version 1. I plan to update it with new content the same way as with Orcs X.

But first, I need to test the waters and make a „wishlistable“ store entry so I can see how many people are really interested.

Here some quick sneak peak of the orc village life!

Greetings Chieftain,
Big Dave Z


YES! There will be a new Orcs X Update.

Hi!
Just letting you know that we are still working on the game here and there. And a new update slowly takes form.

Keep collecting the juice out of the mines, as it becomes the main resource for the new adventures down there.

Cheers,
Dave and Nilo

Orcs X 1.3.1 is here!

It’s been a while! We know..
But we are still alive and improving the game.
As we are only two dudes it sometimes can be harder to create frequent content. Because life interferes, how ever we hope you are still with us. Here is our first update for 2019!
Cheers,
Davilo
