Airborne Empire Gameplay
Airborne Empire incorporates staple mechanics of the city-building genre while blending open-world exploration, RPG progression, and strategy-based defense elements. Players begin with a small, modest settlement floating in the sky, tasked with avoiding sky pirate attacks and exploring new areas to gather resources essential for the city’s growth.
The game features a tech tree that unlocks new buildings, technologies, and methods to expand the city. Among these are the Lift, Propulsion, and Morale buildings, though their specific functions have not yet been fully detailed.
The ever-present threat of sky pirates adds a layer of urgency to gameplay. Players must construct defensive structures such as turrets, defense arrays, walls, and systems to enhance mobility. These defenses are critical for withstanding continuous bombardments from sky pirates’ anti-air batteries and thwarting their boarding parties, which could jeopardize the city’s long-term survival.
As players expand their territory within the game’s grid-based city-building system, new opportunities for development emerge. However, a larger city comes with greater challenges, as it becomes harder to defend. Meanwhile, the sky pirates adapt, finding new strategies to cause destruction with each failed attack.
Airborne Empire Story
Although the full narrative of Airborne Empire has yet to be unveiled, its world and setting have been outlined in promotional materials. The game takes place in a realm filled with sky pirates, ancient relics, remnants of fallen civilizations, and a predominantly steampunk/airpunk aesthetic.
It’s your duty as overseer of your flying city to gather relics, research new technology, and turn your humble floating settlement into the floating capital of a new Airborne Empire!
