Anyone know of a game like this that's more recent? I miss this game so much, but I've also reached the point where you unlock everything so many times, come back like a year or two later then did it again...
I adore your games, Scorzy. I just wish you would stop abandoning them. Ants 1 and 2 were amazing fun, and both felt they had so much more.. Medieval was absolutely great, built on the mechanics of the Ants series, but felt like it was an unfinished beta. First space got a lot farther, and definitely felt finished but like you'd planned on adding more and stopped (in the prestige/rebirth way that is) short... you have a great mind. I just wish you could find a way to stay focused.
That said that's something I wish for myself too so maybe I'm just projecting.
The next update name should be "Highly Anticipated." I just hope it does not wind up being anti-climactic. Jokes aside... you should be able to upgrade basic worker ants by giving them old pill shaped candies. Then they'll be pezz-ants.
Suggestion: A "farm" mode where you can set a level to repeat endlessly without progressing further. True it rarely matters after a few prestige resets but sometimes you just want to grind up before letting it progress for a "Just in case' reason.
The game should be autosaving every minute, and cloud saving every 5 minutes. If it fails to do either, it will send a message telling you the saving failed. If you aren't getting any auto save messages at all, you may have a bug. I would advise copying your save file from the settings page and loading from it to see if that clears things up.
Might I suggest a way to spend time (once you get it) on the other screens? Heading over to experience each time you need to use it gets a bit old quickly. I do love that new idea/concept though.
Loving the idea of the efficiency prestige, but is it a one-for-one 5% less each (capped at I suppose 100% for no cost) or is it a diminishing-returns "5% less of current" type?
@ Drachefly I tried that both with orcs and undead a while bac. I didn't grow any faster then normal..True that was a few patches ago when dead wagons first came out and I was testing that combination, but still
Hey, Veterum. What'cha working on lately for the next patch? More achievements? A new race? Or just going to sit back a bit and ballance-tweak before going back ot new content? You've made a great game so far and I'm sure I'm not the only one curious as to what's next. :P
Ok, maybe I'm crazy but I think towers need a rework. I went from ten towers and 1 stronghold to 56 towers and 11 strongholds and I still can't attack the next enemy size up without losses (From where I was originally without losses). That seems a bit... imballanced if you can build that many starting from so few without a noticeable difference?
I wonder what the next race is going to be... I'm thinking it's going good-evil-good-evil and southerner seems "Neutral" so maybe another neutral? That or the pattern was a coincidence. Personally though I'd love to see Kobolds, or Dwarves, or Goblins, or perhaps something more exotic like the Naga, and have their "Shtict" be basically a combination of orcs and elves, something like serpents that reproduce similarly to hydras but with primarily "Archer" styled combatants...
Know what achievement I'd love? One that has Abominations affect all enemies, and proc (using dead wagons) on all enemies. Now THAT would be amusing. :P
Hey Veterum, not rushing you but you got an ETA for us on the Southerner achievements patch? Just havn't heard any news in a while. Maybe give us a preview/hint as to some of the new abilities to hold us off? :P Oh: and what are the odds that we could get an Undead achievement similar to the dragon's "Guard" ability for their pyramids?
Sorry for the long delay! It will be done tomorrow for sure! It will have a bunch of rewards for the southerners as well as 1 or 2 for each of the other races, and the next 3 resource achievements.
