Development journal / Year 2 · The economy and RAM
The daily loop is connected
RAM, jobs, gathering, housing, food, energy and AP now work together inside the alpha sandbox.
Progress story · Current status and direction
The current alpha foundation connects the fictional RAM currency with jobs, vendors, housing and everyday costs. Fishing, mining and woodcutting offer alternate ways to gather value, while daily job check-ins connect income to career play.
Action points limit elevated actions during a real-world day. Energy, eating and resting create another layer of planning, while food storage and spoilage make tomorrow part of today's decision.
These connected systems are marked complete for coordinated alpha testing. Character growth, competitive progression, abilities, avatar options and broader housing are active areas of work.
