changedWhen I was making the global map, I looked to RimWorld for reference. And there, as you know, there's nothing fancy — a plain hex globe, and everyone's fine with it. But I looked at it and decided: it has to be pretty. So I made it pretty. At least I think so.
changedNow you plot your convoy's route on a living globe: biomes, factions, invasion zones — everything visible, everything highlighted.
changedSo what do you think — did it turn out pretty, or did I waste my time? The game is already in your library — look for Last Convoy Playtest. And while you're there, tell me: is it clear from the map where to go and why?
