WW1 Logistics Game - GameDev Log #7

#strategy #worldwar #gamedev


Update Time!

Big news: Steamworks finally approved me! Setting up the business page was a bit tricky as a foreigner (four tries to get the tax and identity stuff right), but it’s all sorted now. The game has its own page, although I haven’t published it yet.

Also, I decided to change up the development plan a bit. Originally, I was focusing purely on mechanics and saving the design and graphics for last. But with the Steam page coming soon, I want it to have some appealing visuals, so I’m pulling graphics and design work ahead. This way, I can launch the page with solid screenshots and maybe even a nice trailer.

On a personal note, I hit a little milestone: I got my first subscriber on the YouTube channel! Super proud and thankful for that.
And honestly, I have to thank everyone who's been supporting me, giving feedback, and making this journey fun. Sharing this project and journey has been a fantastic choice—having feedback from all of you really brings it to life in a way solo development never could.

Also, don’t forget to weigh in on the poll for the game’s final name! Cast your vote here: https://take.supersurvey.com/poll5325681x7B626c3A-160

For those who don’t know what this is about: After years of thinking about it and watching AAA game studios fumble, I decided to take a shot at making my own game. It’s a WWI logistics and resource management sim that puts you in the shoes of a logistics officer, managing supplies and making tough calls on the front lines—all without firing a single shot. You’ll juggle resources, deal with random events, and try to keep battle units supplied under intense pressure.

This is a personal project to sharpen my programming skills and create something unique—so no huge expectations here, just a passion project that’s both fun and challenging. Sharing the process here is a way to keep the motivation going and because I have noone in real life to sperg out about this.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
