Indie Game Developer - Settler's Domain: A Pixel City Builder

Pinned
The Settler's Domain Demo is out on Steam! It's meant to be a simple snapshot of the early game that can be completed in 30-60 minutes.

Working on a change to the way structure unlocks are handled. Now, there is a research system with branching options that unlock using influence. Been testing it and it feels pretty good! Here's a basic tree from the demo version.

Some footage from testing tonight! I want more videos of the game, but it needs a lot of visual touch ups before it's footage-ready. UI is coming along, but needs more work. Same with many of the visual indicators (white circles). Still, I like where it's headed!

Added some starting "animations" for a new world load!
Still needs some tweaking but I'm happy with the idea.

Bunch of work still to do, but it's starting to feel like a real game! Check out Settler's Domain on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3396920/...
