its towerdefense with card game

filth

but the pixel art is absolutly fantastic! Demo available; Take time to zoom in and look at all this animated attacks of towers, and how rich in details the structures are.


interesting trivia: below is about 1000 (one thousand) units. I didnt count but the cards are spawning so much. As many as a daily Russian casualites in Ukraine.

Da fug? Is the Vietnam game a re-release of the original one? Is the Rhodesia game a re-sking of Angola 86? What is happening???!?

Is the Vietnam game a re-release of the original one?

Probably more complex version based on Angola'86 systems.

Is the Rhodesia game a re-sking of Angola 86?

You do know that Rhodesian bush war and Angolan wars are different conflicts?

Sure, its just weird seeing that there are suddenly so many releases from Every Single Soldier when the Angola game isnt really done yet.

Dayum. Real-time will be interesting, given how large armies are suppossed to be on the field, but there is a pause button visible so there is that at least. The dev looks absolutely bro-tier in the interview, this immediately goes on my wishlist.

same,

low poly graphic looks superreadable.

do you see the manuvering formation on the right? this dude on left rear corner of formation must break world record in running

Yo nigguhz, check this out:



Apparently this is gonna be a base building/management game with some combat elements in which you run a WWII airfield. Looks pretty neat tbh fam, I like the art style as well.

This now has a demo on Steam.

Any of you try the demo or current playtest for this city builder/grand strategy hybrid?

Firefight was released over 8 years ago, but it's been regularly updated since then.

Version 9.0.0
Version 9 now has a new squad order interface so you have more fine control over your units. You can get them to crawl to their destination by ordering 'sneak', you can set them to ambush, or completely hold their fire if you want. You can now also re-mount squads onto halftracks.

The summary of the update is:

- new squad orders user interface
- added 'Sneak', 'Ambush', 'Mount', 'Halt' and 'No Firing' commands
- blue line points from a unit's centre to its destination marker
- orange line points from a mortar squad's centre to its target
- new infantryman icon on the Custom game carousel now shows if a vehicle can mount a squad

Not sure if this was already mentioned - it is an interesting Cthulhu-centric city builder. I tried out the demo and it was p. enjoyable. You lead a cult that settles an abbadoned island, build up economy, worship the elder gods, summon demons and use them to fight people on other islands.

Ah fuck... there is absolutely no need to bring steam punk robots into the French Revolution, that setting is cool enough as it is. Also Céline Bonaparte? I would like this to be good, but... nah.

My former manager is also making another Advance Wars clone using ReactJS.



He's a frontend magician and an opensource advocate, so the tech bits are quite interesting if you catch one of his talks.
