What Commercium is, and what it's going to be

Hello all, I felt that I should shedding some light on what Commercium is going to be, and what it currently is. This goes to all the people that wonder "What is this game?" but don't understand it completely yet. This will be a lengthy post, so if you don't want to read it, there will be a short version at the bottom. Thanks!

What is Commercium trying to be?


We are aiming to make Commercium the sandbox game to beat all sandbox games. By that, we plan to have everything that should be in a modern sandbox game. Player customization, so that you can create your own player, Houses you build or buy, Vehicles to drive, Animals to tame & hunt, but we don't stop there. In the end, we want you to be able to mine for supplies to make your houses and things from nothing, living off the wilderness, automatic machines that do the farming/refining for you, Items to craft, Custom guns, tools and buildings, Farm crops to plant/grow, Houses to break into and steal from, banks to use, Animals to breed. We also plan for there to be a goal-based system, where you have to do all of these things to "finish" the game.

Why not put that on the store page?


We do not want to mislead people by "advertising" features we do not have currently, and plan to update the store page as features are added. Commercium is only in it's second month on steam, and we plan to be finished by June/July, so we have a long way to go.

What is Commercium like Currently?


Commercium is currently a decent house building game, with hints of the other features in. We believe if you want to build interesting houses, you can already do that. You can also sit in a chair and hold other players at gunpoint, and ride horses through town!

Short version?


Commercium will be the sandbox to finish all sandbox games. We'll see to it. We plan to create something no one has seen before, and since you can currently jump a horse over another player, hop off your horse and watch YouTube on the in-game television, We're off to a unique start.
