Major Update 1


Slowly over the past couple of months I have watched this game gather a consistent 3-7 views and 1-2 downloads daily. While this metric may not seem large, as someone who has never had a project maintain any amount of a player base, it is incredible. In fact, very recently, this game has reached over 100 downloads. To celebrate this, I am now working on a large update to the game to take it from a work in progress, to a completed project.

Content:

This update will feature the completed war in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, ending the game with the start of the cold war.  This will involve a reworked British, German, Italian, Russian, and potentially Spanish political tree, as well as many new features to facilitate this. 

An example of a coming event is the Winter War. I've had to take some historical liberties in order to keep balance, as otherwise the Soviet Union would decimate Finland. So instead of the war being between the Soviet Union and Finland, it is between the Karelo-Finnish SSR and Finland.


Polish:

While looking at this image, you may also notice that the map looks different. This is because with this update, my another goal is to increase accessibility and polish. Formerly, this game was practically impossible to play for my colorblind friends, and now, with the new borders, this should be fixed. On top of this, the new province borders make the game look significantly better.

Before:


After:


Minor changes:

- Custom made sound affects

- New music

- Reworked Combat and AI (no more infinite chasing!)

- Better communication of gameplay elements

- Game no longer crashes when AI forms the Italian Republic or East Germany

- There is no longer lag when map is not entirely on screen

I'd like to thank everyone who has played this game up to this point. It is incredible to have any kind of success considering how indie game development is notorious for having very few games reach any kind of traction. Please comment if you have any suggestions,, as I will likely respond or incorporate your idea into the game.

Thanks again - GavGrub
