Probably many of you noticed that the daily updates stopped for the last weeks!

No! The game is not abandoned, it's just getting bigger!

As a solo developer, I have to prioritize my tasks, so after a period of daily minor updates fixing issues and adding improvements based on your suggestions, I needed to stop that and start getting focused on the next major update: the early ages of Civilizations!

I think the current state of the game is OK for now, so it was time to put my hand into the next big thing.

Sadly, I cannot give an estimation for this update, there is still a lot of work to create all these new systems, then add all the content, and then some testing period. But it's progressing well!

The update will include civilizations up to "bronze age" or something similar.

Then, I will release the update and gather all your feedback and opinions.

From there, I will iterate and do multiple updates to the systems until we are all happy.

After that, I will work again into the next big major update, which could be two things:

  • Keep going with civilizations until modern age.

  • Work on all your suggestions and improve creatures and plants.

For now, I will show you some screenshots, but you need to have in mind that I'm currently building the systems and their integrations with the current game, so any assets or graphical stuff is just a placeholder.
