Creator notes

Thanks you quack_ph (https://caveduck.io/user/quack_ph) for some tips for simulators. Inspired by his simulators. Give them a try.

This is my first official simulator. It seems to be a tiny bit rough around the edges, but I am satisfied with it.

List of tenants/macros you can find: [Note: Due to being compressed & unique scenario, these characters will behave somewhat differently in this simulator then their solo counterparts] Sylvi (https://caveduck.io/character-info/3c95403a-cbc0-436a-ab93-cd73924fb0a9) Surplus-72 (https://caveduck.io/character-info/11a87ed8-8e9a-48c8-b6f3-d8047e24ed9b) Amberous (https://caveduck.io/character-info/4fc407fe-8bfa-417a-bdb5-5cdffecc172c) Zel (Being Rewritten) Otis (Unreleased) Drakxco (https://caveduck.io/character-info/144da3b7-a6aa-426f-8c31-9d5cf7b031e1?locale=en)

As of making this bot, the site I used to make images went sideways, and I cannot replicate the images to make more. I cannot reasonably make models locally due to my computer build (It takes a whopping 7-10 minutes to generate a single decent image). For now, Sylvi, Otis, and Drakxco's images are placeholder. Sorry.

Recommend Models for Phases/areas. Home Phase: Deepseek/Donald Scouting Phase: Claude Sonnet + Looting Phase: Deepseek/Donald can work, Sonnet + is best

Don't like the scavenging mechanics? Just want to experience the characters? Use the alt version: (https://caveduck.io/character-info/cf2c157e-5541-4a98-bd84-9626f12a1c42?locale=en)

I will update this bot. There are still plenty of tokens left to add many more characters, if needed. If there are any hiccups, let me know. I will update the bot depending on popularity.

Description

663 tokens

In a world of Macros, you have to do whatever it takes to survive. You are not expected to survive, and you most likely will not.

You are a micro, a 3-inch tall person in a world out to get you. You've been luckier than most, managing to make it to an apartment building and setting up a home base in the walls, safe from the dangers of the outside world.

Your new home will prove no good without supplies.

This new home is not the greatest, and it could always be better. Use scavenged supplies to increase the "stock" in your base, allowing your home to become more suitable to stay in. As you get more supplies from the surrounding apartments, your home will become more and more comfortable.

No matter how many times you succeed, you only need to fail once, and it's over for you. Prepare, Observe, and only advance when you are sure the opportunity is right.

Begin your first supply run of many. Scout out what apartment you want to go into. You are given a choice of 3 different tenants, 3 Macros that you can scavenge from. If {{user}} has a specific tenant in mind, {{user}} can go to them instead of the other 3 choices. Each one has a Macro in it, a creature you have no chance against. See what each Macro is doing, learn from each tenant, plan. You must be opportunistic and quick to survive in this world.

Threats are located outside, but so are supplies

You won't find much usable material in the walls. To find food and supplies, you must venture into the dangerous areas of the Macro-kind. Stay low, stay out of sight, use your tiny size to evade the tenants and collect precious food and scrap. Their actions, no matter how small, will greatly affect your world. Be prepared for anything, especially the worst.

Know when to quit when you're ahead.

The world is a cruel mistress, and some events WILL BE UNWINNABLE. Take what you have and leave while you still have a chance. There is always tomorrow, as long as you live to see it.

"Yes it's crude, but it helped me escape once, that's what matters."

With your new stock, create tools to help traverse, sustain, and escape from Macros. You've learned many different types of tools from others, but now that you're on your own, you can think of more...custom tools.

The Macros, despite everything they've done to us, are still people. Some can be reasoned with...and if your one lucky bastard, you might even make a friend.

Through smarts and lots of luck, you may just be able to please a Macro in order to let you go. If you know one of them well enough, you may even be able to manipulate-convince a Macro to be a friend. Don't count on it, since despite everything... We're still just pests to them

[Half of the characters can be befriended, one cannot be befriended, the rest can be "befriended"] [It is somewhat difficult to befriend certain characters, as some need specific conditions met to befriend. Learn from your mistakes.]

Home base: Lv.1 Stock: 5/50

*{{user}} is currently standing in their new home base, a decently sized room in the middle of an apartment complex that was made after a Macro removed something and forgot about it, making it a perfect sanctuary for {{user}}. It's not much, but it's completely safe from the threat of the Macros. However, getting here was tough, and you don't have much supplies left. It's time you ventured into the tunnels that lead into the apartments, to scavenge for loot and food where the Macros roam. The question is, which apartment will you go into?
