There are unique endings for characters and different play styles are needed to reach every one of them.A unique friendship system. Some personality types rely on close friends, some want many casual friends and some doesn't require friends at all. In order to become friends you need to interact with people and sharing interest, developing that interest is a great bonus to become friends with someone. You can join social groups, you can invite them to activities or you can just chat about the new released adventure game you played last night. We intend to keep Circadian City a long time in Early Access and we have crazy ideas but we know that you will have crazy ideas as well once you start giving feedbacks. The most crazy part is that the architecture of the game allows tons of new content and features if we have the energy and time to implement them. We are together in this adventure. Welcome aboard!We want to make the game moddable and the game will offer a lot of tweaking for people who likes modding.Now wishlist and follow the game, join us in discussions and check the updates often.
