Latest news: Where We've Been and Where We're Going

The update will arrive in early August! A big surprise is coming for existing O.A.C players in June, and it will be completely free for you! Detailed information will be shared within two weeks.

Hello everyone! Over the past few months, I’ve received a lot of feedback from you—and you’re absolutely right. There haven’t been any updates for a while. As you know, I’m developing O.A.C solo. Unfortunately, I experienced a personal setback due to an accident, which significantly slowed my progress. That said, I’ve still been moving forward. Thanks to the revenue earned since O.A.C’s launch, I’ve managed to upgrade my development setup. My old system was holding back progress, but now with a new and much faster setup, development is finally gaining serious momentum!

What Happened to the 3 Delayed Updates?

You’ll receive all three delayed updates at once in a major release.

Current Progress – Pre-Alpha Almost Complete!

I’m 85% done with the pre-alpha phase, and the upcoming update will most likely mark the first official alpha release of O.A.C!

What’s Changing Based on Your Feedback?

Your feedback made it clear: O.A.C has a strong concept, but it’s also a complex and difficult strategy game.

To address that:

• Core mechanics have been simplified

• UI and UX have been completely redesigned

• Advanced systems are now hidden until they’re actually needed

• These improvements will be part of the upcoming update!

Why Has Development Been Slow?

This isn’t an excuse, but a reminder: I’m working on O.A.C completely solo. This game isn’t driven by financial motives—it’s my dream project. I’ve poured years into it, and I’ll continue doing so to make it the best it can be.

What to Expect in the Alpha Version

Here’s what’s already included in the current pre-alpha (85% complete):

• 24 country maps

• Bureaucracy, world events, diplomacy, military & economy systems

• Simplified game interface

• Clearer core mechanics

• Hidden advanced mechanics (shown only when needed)

• Faster game startup times

• Full UI/UX overhaul

• Save/load bugs fixed

• Sound bugs fixed and made user-configurable

Music Album & DLC Promise

The complete O.A.C soundtrack is ready and will be completely free for all players who own the game.

As I’ve promised from the beginning: All O.A.C DLCs will always be free now and in the future!

A Small Hint for Our Players…

We also have something special on the way — a completely free surprise for all O.A.C players. It's not just content — it's something crafted with passion for our dedicated community. Stay tuned, a separate announcement is coming soon...

Final Words

Thank you for your patience, your feedback, and your belief in the project. I’m here, working hard every day and with your continued support, O.A.C will become something truly special.

Much love! V.B.B - [C.O.T.E] www.cotestudios.com
