Game
Empires in Ruins - The bastard child of 4X and Tower Defense

6 years ago

Just a quick update from the development front. We're getting in the new towers, and we personally love the look of it, but not only the look improved...


The new towers are also far more lightweight on the occupied space and memory needed and, for the techies, they are completely managed through AssetBundles (Unity3D) so to minimize the RAM requirements for the game.

What’s new in the new towers?

  • New high-res flags

  • New enhanced color scheme for better contrast in game

  • Terrain layer beneath to merge with the map ground nicely

  • Smaller, optimized size for the game zoom level (half the size of the previous ones almost)

and, last, but absolutely not least

  • Snow layer ready for the upcoming snow maps!!

Hope the teaser was teasing enough for now, we can’t wait to push out a refreshed build here as well (these days our full focus is on the 4X part of the game and main map, but as you can see, no combat map is left behind ;) )

Cheers,
H, Lead Dev

We're three days away from Ale Abbey's launch on Steam!🍻⛪ That's about as long as it takes Brother Mansenius to brew his first ale (in-game time ofc)! Watch and learn now... it'll be your turn soon😉

Sketching some new styled promo assets, what do you guys think?

After a week of playing Ale Abbey, BREWERS, what is best in life?🍻⛪

As our early access release approaches fast, the time has come to release our first Demo beta. For the very first time we make accessible to public the Campaign and Arcade mode...

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose... but maybe the best part is the ales we brew along the way!🍻⛪

Concept art of an entirely new mechanic coming soon-ish to Ale Abbey😉

What's in the flask?

Nothing makes your Fermentines happier than a cold ale🍻⛪ And this leads players to 2 ale types in Ale Abbey🧐: low quality, simple, and cheap or high quality, complex, and empowering. Not judging, just observing😏

A long time ago, in an Abbey far far away🍻⛪ an Abbot had his eyes on a much bigger prize (totally not a moon btw). Ready for that major space-brewing opera update anyone?😇
