Climate change is hard | Beecarbonize
3Welcome! I literally chose this game at random from Steam and was utterly shocked at how amazing it turned out to be! From being fast-paced and intense and surprisingly, made me have to play strategically. I had a blast even though I utterly failed to stop climate change.
I hope you enjoy watching the struggle!

NOTE
I mixed both game and narration tracked together so if the audio feels off that's why. Apologies.
ABOUT BEECARBONIZE
https://charlesgames.net/beecarbonize/
Your enemy: carbon emissions. Research cutting-edge technologies, enact policies, protect ecosystems, and modernize industry to avert climate catastrophe. Create your own path to victory, manage your resources well, and you might survive!
Will you favor industrial reforms, nature conservation or people initiatives? There are many ways to solve climate change and reduce pollution. But saving the planet is not an easy task. The more carbon emissions you produce the more extreme events you will have to deal with.
You have to balance the power-generating industry, social reforms, ecological policies and scientific endeavors. Will you transition from fossil fuels as fast as possible? Or will you focus on carbon capture technologies first? Experiment with new strategies and don’t be afraid to start again.
Game cards represent inventions, laws, social advancements, or industries – each designed on the basis of real-world climate science. In addition, partially randomized world events occur, forcing you to adapt your strategy. Gradually unlock new cards in the game encyclopedia and chart your path towards a new future.
The world of Beecarbonize reacts to your actions. More emissions mean more floods or heatwaves, investing in nuclear power raises the risk of a nuclear incident, and so on. Learn more with each run and you might overcome environmental catastrophes, social unrest, and even avert the end of life on earth.
We are introducing Hardcore mode, the ultimate challenge in Beecarbonize for experienced players. In Hardcore mode you will face the harsh reality of climate change. Can you defy the odds and save the planet even in this extreme scenario?
