Version 0.21 Development

0.21 is undergoing feature development with new content such as wild animal loot and health, randomized citizen genders, overhauled sounds and various bug fixes.

Wild Animals - Health and Loot

One of the features that was planned but only implemented for aggressive animals was the health system.

Now all animals have this system and debuting in 0.21, all animals drop loot bags on death.

We will be working with this system further to make more randomized loot with specific drop tables.

Randomized Citizen Genders

One feature that was requested many times in the past was the randomization of citizens’ genders. Previously miners and lumberjacks would always be male.

This was due to the time spent reworking the animations was too much and had too little priority compared to adding new features such as multiplayer and wild animals.

For 0.21 citizens are randomized giving a more diverse aspect to your empires population. In future updates we plan on making your citizens more personal with names and stats such as happiness, individual hunger and thirst, work efficiency and mood.

Overhauled Sounds

For 0.21 we decided that some sound effects used in the game were old and outdated. We have now implemented higher quality sounds to improve the polish of the game and we don’t plan on stopping.

Every new update will now have improved sounds for all aspects of the game.

Improving the quality and experience of the game is our current priority.

Where have we been?

Development of Realm of Rulers is a part time venture for me and the amazing people who work on it. We are all students which comes with difficulties managing our time. Over the summer break period rapid development will come to Realm of Rulers. We aren’t forgetting about this game. We promise!
