Tomorrow at 9 am. CST, I am streaming Ultima Ratio Regum. Follow me at https://www.twitch.tv/hightyrolplaysgamesif you have a twitch account so you don't miss it. Or just click the link manually tomorrow, if you don't have a twitch account.

I will probably be streaming for about 4-6 hours, if anyone wants to watch but the time doesn't work for you let me know and I may be able to adjust it.

(No ziggurats any more, alas, but...)

Ultima Ratio Regum 0.8.2 released! A ton of bug-fixes and a host of new or expanded features, and including the return of generated crypts, graves, sarcophagi, etc. https://www.markrjohnsongames.com/2021/03/03/ultima-ratio-regum-0-8-2-released/

I honestly don’t know if it’s actually fun te play, but this rogue-like is excellent to look at, one of the best i’d say (ie, i love Cogmind aesthetics too)

I don't think URR has magic.

Far as I'm aware it doesn't, no. Was planned way earlier in development (and sounded super interesting, heh), but the feature(s) was dropped to focus on other things and actually get something feature complete part way through development. Which I can respect, even if it melted my interest in development.

... ngl, I mostly stopped paying attention at that point, heh. What's been done seems pretty impressive, but it's like the historical mystery novel of roguelikes... and like historical mystery novels, I've no interest in reading it :P

e: Any case, the download link seems to be here: https://www.markrjohnsongames.com/games/ultima-ratio-regum/

Early in development URR was a lot of things and looked more like Incursion than the culture sim it is now.

It is not, and Frumple kindly posted the link!

Indeed not :). Once planned, but now I'm going for (essentially) realism.

like historical mystery novels, I've no interest in reading it :P

Fair enough!

Early in development URR was a lot of things and looked more like Incursion than the culture sim it is now.

Indeed, it was a whole bunch of things (this is what happens when you're making your first ever game) but the historical mystery rogeulike is now about right :).

I'm so pleased to say my interview with Dr Tommy Thompson from AI and Games is now live! We talk about the game's design, origins, struggles, goals, distinctive elements, a bit about how it's coded, and more. Hope you all enjoy!

Shrines for a new "cult" religious type! For instance, these worship the moon, castles, mountains, and forests.
