When we work together, it's much better! ✨

A screenshot of the upcoming game Generation Exile. A big UI box sits in the middle of the screen, obscuring the hex grid map behind it. On the left side of the box features several portraits for various characters: Barry Bingle, Reyna Cagara, Rory Mckenna, and Elias Keszler. On the right features two more characters, Julian Akande and the aforementioned Barry Bingle. The text above them reads, "BUILD! BUILD SOIL DESALINATOR. Soil desalinators filter out excess salts and aerate the soil, producing runoff waste." Underneath them is a meter that estimates their ability to work together, which is labeled as "poor."

Hey, uh, anyone know what's up with that awkward distance between Chuck and Ted? 🤔

A screenshot of the upcoming game Generation Exile. The scene features a bunch of people standing in a room with tables and chairs, indicating some sort of party or gathering. The cursor highlights two patrons who are standing at a distance and talking to each other. A text box over them reads, "It's Chuck and Ted. It always seems like they're standing just a little too far apart..."

Friendship ended with microplastics. Now bioplastics are my new friend.

A screenshot of the upcoming game Generation Exile featuring technology tree UI from the game. The tree starts with two nodules labelled "technology" and "waste containment" that are highlighted in green. A third one, which leads to branching paths on the tree, is labelled "bioplastics" and is highlighted in blue. A box in the corner explains that this is the current research objective, which will grant access to plastics and related buildings when competed.
