New Screenies! Temporary AI-Generated artwork (still looking for 3D artists!) and some placeholder images I found as terrain textures... Please, I'm looking for feedback about the mechanics, not the lack of art!

Why Early Access Prototype?
100 Hexes 3D is currently in active development. The core gameplay loop is solid and fully playable against AI opponents, but I'm working on the additional planned mechanics, bringing the visual presentation and multiplayer features to match the strategic depth already present in the game.
By releasing in Early Access Prototype, I can gather feedback from the community and ensure the multiplayer implementation meets player expectations. The game is fully functional and enjoyable in its current state - you're getting a complete single-player experience with regular updates adding new features.
Development Roadmap
-Phase 1 (Current): Core mechanics, AI opponents, strategic systems
-Phase 2 (Next 2-3 months): Adding (and balancing) the planned second-layer strategy mechanics (more buildings, more construction types, units abilities, etc.).
-Phase 3 (Next 4-6 months): Faction-specific 3D assets and visual polish Phase 4 (6-10 months): Multiplayer implementation with lobby system
-Phase 4 (6+ months): Advanced features, balance refinement, community feedback integration
