Instead of the skill trees many strategy games are using, we have an article today covering the acquired trait approach we're taking that lets heroes be shaped by actual gameplay:

 

Also a new wallpaper for the Mars-like minimal planets:

Although we didn't reach the Kickstarter funding goal, it did serve the purpose of spreading the word about the game. We are continuing work and still aiming for a summer 2016 release. We'll be winding down a little on daily media updates in the coming weeks. We'll still have our weekly status updates, some videos, and a few articles on development but not every day.

 

But for today a new species update on the Tulocks!

Today we have another one of our pre-warp minor species to show off.

 

We finished up diplomatic victories and the galactic council this week including the council decree system. Council decrees are a lot like the planetary council votes in SMAC.

We'll be doing less frequent updates, but today we have our weekly status update and implemented leader mechanics:

 

This week our species video covers the Humans, who are pretty bog-standard fare in LoR:

 

We also have a new screenshot showing off the GNN room:

We've had a pretty busy week fleshing out the hero mechanics some more and fixing bugs! But we wanted to show off two things, the Synth fighter drone and a species video covering the Ornithons!

We're alive and kicking as a project and a lot is going on behind the scenes.

I hate to be "that" guy again but...

 

 

...why Iceberg again? They have poor track record regarding almost all titles they published. And it's as if they're always doing their best at devouring grabbing every single indie 4X titles they come across to publish.
