A downloadable "Game"

Bjois (pronounced "Byoys") is a top-down simulation game, inspired by titles such as Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld, where you can watch your mob of Bjois grow into a chaotic ecosystem of interactive fellas.

Sit back and watch your Bjois GOOP themselves; they're each fully automatic, but players can also direct them with an RTS-like control scheme.

Track your progress, read detailed information, and expand your collection of Bjois using the Catalogue feature. So far there are over a hundred Bjois, with many more still to come!

This is a free timed demo created for Pixel Expo 2025. Check it out!

Great launch of the Demo at PGF yesterday. A stand out for originality. Looking forward to downloading the Demo and having a play. Can't wait to see the finished product.
