Nice start! Super ambitious to make a 4X for a game jam lol but the map generation is great and the systems you have going are great starts. I would love to see this built out more, love seeing some mechs in a 4X setting. Good work!
I get that actucally implementing the combat wasn't possible in the time constraints.
A simple resolution of tossing a coin and either losing or winning, and getting out of the combat screem would have been nice, though...
This is a good start to a great game. I hope you do more with it!
Thanks, I'm continuing to work on it since I like how it turned out.
Making games under a strict time limit is ambition, taking a swing at making a 4X game is really ambitious XD.
Was there a particular algorithm you used to gen the maps?
Oh I know, I'm partly shocked I got as far as I did with it lol.
The hex map generation was made with help from this series of videos: Mostly Civilized: A Hex-Based 4x Game Engine for Unity
and this page about hexagonal grids and how to make them with pseudo-code: https://www.redblobgames.com/grids/hexagons/
Personally, I get civilization vibes. Keep it up! I'd like to try it when it's done :)
Thanks a lot! I plan to keep working on i
Those are some slick maps
Well thanks! A lot of the development time for this prototype was spent on map generation and the camera controls so I'm glad to hear you like it.
