Hi everyone,
This is the last update before the release of Chapter 2 tomorrow and I want to introduce you to more of the new features you can expect.
First of all, combat will become slightly more interactive. As part of the Chapter 2 story, you’ll learn new powers that you can use during combat to turn critical fights around. E.g. you can do more damage or heal your soldiers.
Another new feature will force you to think twice about how to use your army. Whenever you’re c...

Like I mentioned in the last update, I want to let you know a bit of what to expect in Chapter 2 before it releases. One of the focuses this update was on the extensions to maps and the new world.
First of all, the tiles of the main map have been completely changed. You can see them in the screenshot above. The main hope of this change is to give the entire game a more sophisticated look. You’ll see new tiles on two entirely new maps. I have added some mechanisms to t...

Hi everyone,
Chapter 2 of XXXivilization will be released on Tuesday the 3rd of December.
The closed beta is going on and, while already some critical bugs have been found, I have a good feeling about the state of the game and am quite optimistic that it will be a relatively bug-free release. Granted, it is still going to be one of the largest releases I’ve done yet, so there’ll probably still be some bugs that slip through the cracks.
In the comi...

Hi everyone!
I have exciting news: The work on Chapter 2 is finally nearing an end! This weekend I’ll launch a small closed beta to find as many bugs and problems as possible before finishing Chapter 2. Depending on how well this goes, I expect the actual Patreon release to follow one or two weeks later.
All images are finished and in the game along with most of the events as well. I just need to tie a few ends together and work on some details and bugs.
I hope you are as ...

Hi everyone!
This week I made really good progress in several areas. I’ve gotten all the events aside from one faction into the game so far. I also added a huge amount of new images like the one featured at the top of this post. I’ve also started fixing a lot of the bugs I encountered during my play-testing and finalized most of the Chapter 2 character creation.
A lot is going on right now. I can see the initial Chapter 2 update’s finish line on the horizon, but I still don...

Hi everyone,
Progress last week was rather slow, as I was really busy at work, but I managed to continue integrating new events in the game. My writer also delivered the final events needed for chapter 2, so I’m currently working on adding them to the game. I now have a bit more time for a few days and hope to get a lot more done.
As I said in a previous update, I’m not going to charge money anymore from you via patreon until I have delivered chapter 2. I promise it is going t...

Hi everyone,
I′ve made progress in multiple directions this last week.
The events for the background story of Chapter 2 have been added to the game, and I also finished a script to convert save games or new games to their required save-state. However, at some point, I got a bit bored by the seemingly endless amount of events to add, so I spent a few days on images and added a few more renders for some scenes – one of them you can see above – that you’ll be able to s...

Hi everyone,
As you know, progress on Chapter 2 has been slow these last couple of weeks, which hasn’t changed much since the last update but I’m making slow but steady progress. The end is in sight, but there is still a lot to do.
I spent most of the latest week incorporating user submitted events to the game, which is awesome! The submitted events were bigger than usual and quite good as well. Massive thanks to the two people responsible for most of t...

Hi again everyone!
I have made some progress since the last update, but honestly there’s still a lot to do. I’ve managed to complete the content of one of the two new maps into the game, but the second is still missing. I want to give you an insight in what needs to be done in the course of this, and to let you know what takes so much time there:
Hi everyone,
I would be lying if I said that progress on Chapter 2 is going to plan right now – it is not.
As much as I enjoy working on it, XXXivilization is still a hobby for me and not a job. The last few weeks have been really busy and demanding at my day-time job, and while that is nice for me personally – as I’ve gotten to learn a lot of new things and work on an interesting project – it means that when I’ve gotten home from work some days tha...

Hi Everyone,
We’re slowly getting closer to the finish line of Chapter 2 and this week I want to let you know of a new feature that I know a lot of people will be happy about: Active combat abilities.
Starting with Chapter 2 you will be able to use abilities in combat. You’ll be able to do things like enhance your next attack or heal your army and they’ll have a pretty big impact on the outcome of the fight, possibly even turning a losing battle around in yo...

Hi Everyone,
This week I want to talk about the different ways you’ll be able to jump into XXXivilization Chapter 2 and I also have a small request.
You’ll be able to experience Chapter 2 content on release in three different ways.
This week I want to talk about some pretty exciting content of Chapter 2 – the world, which will be explorable like never before.
Starting with Chapter 2 there will be a world map available on which you can explore new maps roughly the same size as the one many of you have been playing on up to this point. This means that aside from the current default map, there will be not one but two new maps to conquer. Each of them will have its own unique story that you w...

Hey everyone!
From this week onward, I intend to start giving more details on Chapter 2 and tease some of the upcoming content you can expect to see in the first Chapter 2 update.
In this week’s post I want to show you some of the overarching visual improvements I’m making to the game that I think we can all agree have been needed for quite some time. Up to this point, the main tiles of XXXivilzation′s map have been open source graphics of varying quality. They don’...

This week, instead of the usual weekly update, I have a mid-week update for you.
I’ve fully dove into Chapter 2 and so far the progress looks quite nice. Some of the new core systems are already working or are close to getting finished, new renders look promising and my two writers are working on events for the main story. Of course, there’s still a lot left to do, but I will keep you updated and will go into more details of what Chapter 2’s first major update will entail i...
2019-08-07 20:49:43 +0000 UTC View PostAlong with today's public release I have also finished a small patch to also incorporate some fixes to the pateon-only versions.
The patch fixes some issues with the Arena and with population counts. It also adds one more buildable outpost and one image that I missed in the initial version (the new uniform being shown for the priestess in the beauty contest).
The patches are attached to this post, you can extract the one of your version into your game directory and replace all fil...

Hi everyone!
Last week I dove right back into working on chapter 2. I′ve finished shaping most of the main story line and also did some much needed reworking of code that were steadily causing more trouble as development progressed.
I also spent quite a bit of money from the Patreon page on resources to be able to create nice backgrounds for outdoor scenes, one of which you can see above. Until now I′ve mostly worked on indoor scenes or images with generic backgrounds. I think...

The release for Version 17.5 is just around the corner. Due to its sort of spontaneous nature, I know some of you may be wondering what to expect from it, so I figured I’d make a post to clear things up.
Please keep in mind this is primarily a balancing update to prepare for Chapter 2. But there is a bit of new content and new images too.
Outpost Changes
You’ll now be able to build outposts yourself, however you are going to be li...

This week has been quite productive. The basics for version 17.5 are complete. As I′ve mentioned before, this is a minor version that will focus on balancing and bug-fixing. You’ll now be able to build a small number of outposts by yourself and be able to control the amount of taxes your population is paying by laws.
Aside from the purely gameplay focused additions, there’ll also be some new events and images – the one above is a new minor character related to one of the new eve...

Very short weekly update this time: Most of the last week I was sick and then I was on vacation for a few days, so not too much progress made.
I′m still on track to get most of the progress for Version 17.5 done next week, and I′ll be sure to keep you all updated as per usual.

Hello again everybody!
I hope you′re all enjoying Version 17.
As you may recall, I made a poll on whether I should focus solely on Chapter 2 or if I should put out smaller updates to ease the waiting. The poll ended slightly in favor of focusing on Chapter 2. However, that was before I’d gotten a lot of feedback on Version 17.
I’ve come to the conclusion that the current state of the game is not sufficient to directly go to Chapter 2. ...
