The Nest

Blocking out the player hub for Pigeon Sim — a titanic floating “nest” in the sky!

Behold—The Nest, in all its graybox glory!

The worlds of Pigeon Simulator are a mix of procedurally generated and hand crafted content. Each play through can be completely different, from unique beginnings to multiple endings!

To give the player a sense of stability and progress in this ever-changing universe, we needed an anchor. We needed something to provide consistency across multiple generations of pigeons (or “runs” in roguelike terms). We needed a player hub.

So, this month we began blocking out a massive structure we refer to simply as “The Nest.”

The Nest is a safe space (most of a time). It’s a refuge for all pigeons and their allies. A place to get some R&R, meet interesting new NPCs, shop interesting vendors, and much much more!

The Nest will start small, growing over time as the player unlocks new content, until it finally becomes this illogical behemoth in the skies—a floating icon of pigeon glory and player achievement!

We don’t want to give any spoilers beyond this, so instead, we’ll just leave you with some screenshots and your imagination.

What cool things do you want to see us do with The Nest?
