Vena — A genre-defying fusion of city-building, roguelike deckbuilding, and automation

Vena places you at the center of the Nexus, a core tile that consumes six resource types with demand rising every game phase. Your task is to place tiles along six veins radiating from the Nexus to feed it. You’ll chain converters, duplicate producers, and gamble on high-risk/high-reward tiles as you strive to survive nine phases and beat the game. This is not just a build; it’s an evolving system where every choice reshapes the flow of resources and outcomes.

Infinite replayability is at the heart of Vena. No two runs are the same, thanks to ever-changing perks and a broad pool of tiles. The game hosts 7 distinct game modes and 5 difficulty tiers, from Normal to God, ensuring you can push your skills and discover new strategies each time you play. The challenge scales with you, inviting deeper mastery while remaining accessible to newcomers.

Between every phase, you enter the Shop—a tactical dice system where you roll to secure essential tiles. Hold and reroll dice to hit a perfect triplet, and you can unlock an extra fourth dice to break the economy. If the current selection doesn’t suit your plan, shuffle the tiles and hunt for the specific component that unlocks your perfect synergy. At the end of the Shop, pick one of three perks to define your run’s strategy.

Vena features:

• 100+ Rotatable Hex Tiles across 4 rarities (Common to Legendary), each with unique mechanics and mythic artwork.
• 50+ Distinct Perks to enable wild strategies and bend the rules.
• High-Stakes Shop with dice-based risk and big rewards.
• 20+ Unlockable Skins to showcase mastery and conquer high difficulties.

The game is designed to be immersive and cohesive. Detailed pixel art pairs with an original ethnic soundtrack, with every sound cue tuned to the rhythm to help you relax, focus, and slip into an automation flow state. Vena is easy to pick up but hard to master, always offering room to improve efficiency and refine your run.

A solo developer project, Vena is a passion-driven experience crafted from code, design, pixel art, and music to deliver a unique and polished indie title. Enjoy a harmonious blend of strategy, risk, and artistry—an endless loop of clever synergies waiting to be discovered.
