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

7 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

Curious to see how the new battlefields looks like?

Ale Abbey will soon be getting a new room, the Contemplarium🍻⛪ Make sure your brewers visit this haven once in a cool brew. To take a knee... a break... a sneaked-in pint even!😉

There's definitely a "HONK if you want more awards from Ale Abbey's ale competitions" joke hatching in this one!🍻⛪

Yep, we've been silent for a while, but did you guys see what we've been doing? New demo, tons of maps, campaign almost done, etc etc!

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

Have you tried the latest beta?

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...

Abbess Catherine... we swear on everything that is hoppy🫣 It's but a trophy that commemorates our Laymen's hard work around Ale Abbey!🍻⛪

We did open up our latest beta testing, now only as a "closed" round on our discord channel. Wanna try our Campaign, Sandbox and Arcade mode ? https://discord.gg/neWuUG8

A bit of summary of stuff we made in the last month
