2nd resource type, new units & buildings

Epsilon Indi
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

This is a major update tackling all the points that where brought up in the last feedback round. There are now two types of attacking units: The tier 1 "Railgun Buggy" and the tier 2 "Plasma Thrower". This creates a first strategic minigame of rushing with tier 1 vs. fast tech to tier 2.

Gameplay

UI Improvements

  • It is now possible to queue up to 3 units in a production queue
  • A minimap was added
  • A proper preview is shown when planning a new building
  • It is now possible to select a unit to see its stats

Other

  • Background music was added
  • A few plants where added to make the map a bit less dull
  • For PvP a prediction/rollback mechanic was added

Outlook

There is still a lot to do. Tasks in the backlog are:

  • Add more units
  • Add an additional race
  • Improve the PvP experience
  • Create a tutorial/campaign
  • Add different maps
  • Improve graphics

Thanks

Thanks go to those who gave me feedback on the previous version, helping me to decide what should be done in this update:
