Planned release: 07/25/2025
I was working on the fight system again. Apart from the boring code, this also led to some new additions to the game. First things first: you can now continue the tutorial quest and prepare for your first fight.
This new chapter introduces Bucky, who can later be recruited as a hero depending on your choices. He’ll be a useful ally during your first battle as well.
While testing the game, I realized there are a few stats that are better to have visible at all times. So I extended the top bar to include them. It looks asymmetric for now — that’s intentional. I’m reserving the left side for political engine stats.
I also finalized the artwork for the bandits. Just like your own troops, they’ll have three unit types. I made them a bit tougher than your peasants, to balance the fact that the AI likely won’t be as clever as you folks.
See you next week!
