On what's coming next


Usually, I don't post news here. We have our Trello for showing the developement, and I announce a new update each month on the Discord.
But since there may be people won't don't see each one of those, and since our developement is that far, I suppose I can change a bit of my habits.
This game is far from done. My ambitions on it are too high to see even the top of my To Do list. Almost no games are done on this era, and it's for many reasons. Not enough sources, no interesting ideas of gameplay, etc.
But fear not, it's not a message to abandon this project. It's just that I began the third year of developement at the end of May. And because of that, I decided to give myself limits for this game. Limits that can be pushed if enough support can be gathered of course, but limits nonetheless.
In one year, if nothing more happen, I will launch this game on Steam. Fear not, A system of save will be added, the AIs will be even better, and the interface will be finished. But if nothing else is done, only the egyptian factions will be playable. In truth, it will be already huge. The past 2 weeks I prepared the narrative arcs for the egyptian factions for each start date, and we are at more than 250 events to wrote and add to the game.
To give you an idea in term of content, I need to write a third of a page for an event with the text and the tooltips. So I need to write around 80 pages of text, just for those events. So its around 80.000 words just for the egyptians. When I told you that I was too much ambitious, I didn't lied X)

So yeah, tu sum up:
-the game will be finished in the earliest in one year
-it should have at least all the content for the egyptians finished(interface, music, events, etc)
-should good news happen and help us to push further this project, other factions beginning with the Sumerians, Babylonians and Akkadians, will be made playable
So fear not, The Bronze Age will be yours to rule.
May your rule be prosperous !
