Bay 12 Games Forum

Hello all, my name is Huw and for the past 4 or so years now I've been solo developing a game called Warsim, some of you may have heard of it as a large number of those who have played the game are dwarf fortress fans too, Warsim was based on many games I've enjoyed including mount and blade, dwarf fortress, the elder scrolls series and king of dragon pass.

I've always had an awesome response from fellow urists before so I thought I'd share the game with you all!

The game has been on steam for a while now and is rated as of this post, as the 191st best hidden gem on steam according to steam250.com, this is due to the 97% positive rating it has from 114 reviews, but relatively low sales.

the game features a heavily procedurally generated world as you try to rule the Kingdom of Aslona, a once great land now plagued by rebellion, a united horde of bandits, two strong kingdoms of goblins and five randomly generated independent kingdoms with randomly generated races as well as countless other side factions, I have always loved randomly generated content and so the game is full of it.

* Randomly generated musicians who play random songs (lutes, grunters, clickers, hummers, drummers and so on)
* Over 25 quadrillion randomly generated faces for many different kinds of races
* Randomly generated kingdoms with random flags, laws, rulers and relations that you can fight, or befriend
* Hundreds of encounters with people visiting your throne room to speak to you, the mighty king!
* Massive world exploration zone
* Randomly generated buildings and architecture
* Arena gambling, tournaments and grand champion fights
* Player Moddability, add your own things to the game!
* near infinite hireable companions such as jesters, generals, spymasters ect
* Thousands of random in game events and encounters to keep things interesting
* Tons of cheats and extra features stuffed into the game
* Millions of possible factions and wild and active gameworld
* and so much more!

A really good let's play made somewhat recently, though the game has grown greatly since this playthrough

I am massively open to feedback, I have a tendency to add things that are suggested by players into the game and will respond to pretty much all the comments I get! Happy to answer any questions you guys have and would love feedback of any kind!
