It’s definitely been a fun couple of weeks having feedback on the game after the first open beta release. It’s mostly been positive too, which is always nice :)

So we’ve now made our second release, which is available on the website (along with the changelog): http://grim-legions.zeefin.net/play.html

There were a few suggestions and bug reports… we’ve squashed a few nasty bugs, and taken up some of the suggestions, e.g.

• There was a bug that let you move legions infinitely! It took a bit of messing around, but basically when 2 legions merged, it always took the movement points of the unit that moved onto the first… that was a bit of a face palm moment… now it always takes the lowest one

• You can now change the movement speed of legions, so you don’t have to wait so long for the AI to move (especially if it has a lot of units)

• Also made the help a bit better

There was also a bug we managed to track down right before we finalized the release, which meant phantom legions could sometimes appear… was about 3 hours of solid debugging trying to track that one down just before we wrapped up the release!

We’ve also added a new tileset (and updated the existing one), “desert”. Here’s a screenshot:

One major thing we want to add before the 1.0 release, which is map reveal / fog of war.
