WarKings is a Turn-based Tactics game, currently in pre production. benerot.com/warkings
Had been using the same placeholder hit effect for ages, thought it was time to make it a little less basic.
A-B comparison. Nowhere near final of course.

I've made a prototype Gameplay Demo available.

I've made an early prototype gameplay demo of WarKings available on benerot.itch.io/warkings
It's a cool turn-based-tactics indie game that blends Advance Wars with CRPG combat mechanics.
Take it for a ride and let me know what you think!

I enjoy looking back and seeing how much has been done already. Specially considering this is still closer to the start than to the end. iteration, iteration, iteration...
I started 5 months ago, wonder where it'll be like in a year.

Tidied up the map to conform to ground tile size.
Currently the tile size is just a guide I'm following for aesthetics purposes. But is the map tile generation size too.

Nothing final and far from done, but this is the first time I don't have any prototype/debug stuff on scene.

Even though WarKings is turn based I thought it could be cool to see the other players as drones flying around the battlefield.
I added this as part of my "ways to communicate" pass. You can also ping ang point at things.

One last thing before ending the weekend: A cool attack distance preview material :D
Units attack only horizontally, or full range. Some up into the air or down towards the ground.

Pathing on the air. Not for the faint of heart! so many ramification to handle!
Worth it though :D

I've been replacing the debug circles, lines, and points with more permanent solutions. Like these flags here :)

When you find the limits of your current implementation or tactical ground helicopters?

Trying a different layout for the UI now that I know what elements the game has. Definitely not final, but an improvement!

Won the match! A very decisive victory!
"Project Vulcan" initial prototype phase is over. I've started working on a Game Demo I can share :)
Will focus on audio-visual and UI/UX elements for a while.

Getting really close to finishing the code part of my multiplayer turn based game (name TBD). Next step is going to be to start doing some audio-visual work to even things up.

I've added a pending unit action panel on the left that you can click to select and focus the unit. I'm polishing things a bit now, before working on additional core gameplay stuff!

I've been making good progress with my turn based tactics game. I'm currently focused on the core mechanics and iterating as needed. I like where things are going! Online multiplayer works really well too.

The prototype of "Vulcan" is progressing really well. I'm so happy it's even more fun than I thought it'd be! Only a couple key mechanics to implement! Then I'll playtest some more, iterate a ton, and soon I'll start adding some actual art into it :D

Project Vulcan, real name TBD. A turn-based strategy game with some Advance Wars DNA + modern CRPG style combat. It is very early on!
