QUESTING KNIGHTS AND PUBLC FAVOUR (7 features)

In a report TJ mentioned that despite having a low public opinion knights were coming to quest for him in the throne room, checking the code I could see that regardless of public opinion questing knight encounters would pop up in the throne room. After some thought I've added a new system that will change how frequently these encounters are shown up, only appearing as frequent as they do currently if you have 100 public opinion, otherwise they will become a lot rarer.

* Questing knight encounters are 1/40 odds of happening if public opinion is below 0
* Questing knight encounters are 1/20 odds of happening if public opinion is below 10
* Questing knight encounters are 1/15 odds of happening if public opinion is below 20
* Questing knight encounters are 1/10 odds of happening if public opinion is below 40

WHAT'S NEXT

I'm currently spending most days now working through my combat update work and spending off days working on clearing bug reports. Since jumping back into combat update stuff I've added a new system for testing battles and fixed a number of bugs with my last build of the new combat update stuff, namely an issue where random units would appear in battles they weren't supposed to be in and issues with the way event text was written for events where the player was under attack.

I'm slowly but surely working my way in and hopefully can keep the momentum up and start getting the combat stuff to a point where it can be partially released while I finish it off. I still estimate it to be potentially months and months of work and as it progresses these updates may slow down or stop temporarily... anything to finally get this bloody update out though.

Waffling aside, I hope everyone is good, Thanks for reading and supporting the game!

Cheers

WHAT'S NEXT

I've been cracking on with the combat update for quite a while now and things are going well. I'm currently in the process of creating special events for different races and groups when starting in battle. Demigods might levatate down to the battlefield, goblins might arrive and throw a volley of stones, zombies might scream and shamble forward, Draconians might shoot fire at their enemies, and witches might cast some kind of spell to weaken their opponents. There are so far about 60 different events unique to different races with plans for at least 100+ more relating to certain prefixes.

Here are some screenshots of new events

- Those must be some sharp pebbles - https://i.imgur.com/BuEDddU.png
- How rude - https://i.imgur.com/CARKuYD.png
- I ain't afraid of no many-eyed ghosts - https://i.imgur.com/J56t0kL.png
- So magic is your game eh? - https://i.imgur.com/IadNy8D.png
- I'd run if I saw Iron Shadow Giants on the horizon - https://i.imgur.com/3MFlli3.png

It's a big pile of work but I'd very much like the game to interact specially with different prefixes and race types as I think the more it does the more unique each batch of random kingdoms you get will become. Still very early days on the combat stuff but I'm happy to be making progress into it.

Cheers and hope everyone is ok!

Hey everyone,

I recently went looking through steam data and was blown away when I realised just how many countries Warsim
is being played in. Considering how niche it is what I found was amazing.

So perhaps unsurprisingly the biggest country for Warsim copies sold is the USA accounting for more than half of all copies (Thanks mates!)

The top 10 countries for Warsim sales are:

USA - 11.6K copies
UK - 7.3K copies
Canada - 1.5k copies
Germany - 1.3k copies
Australia - 935 copies
Sweden - 403 copies
France - 381 copies
Netherlands - 327 copies
Poland - 369 copies
Finland - 259 copies

Already mind blowing!

What really blows my mind is how many different countries and regions there are where there are active Warsim players.

Each of the below countries Warsim has sold between 1-250 copies

Honduras, Morocco, Ghana, Guadeloupe, Montenegro, Mongolia, Bolivia, Algeria, Albania, El Salvador, Egypt, Kyrgyzstan, Cambodia, Moldova, Gibraltar, Guatemala, Bangladesh, Oman, Venezuela, Palestine, French Polynesia, Nepal, Trinidad and Tobago, Panama, Andorra, Macedonia, New Caledonia, Cyprus, Jamacia, Sri Lanka, Lebanon, Jersey, Kazakhstan, Brunei, Macau, Pakistan, Qatar, Guernsey, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Paraguay, Jordan, Malta, Peru, Costa Rica, Isle of Man, Guam, Bahrain, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Luxembourg, Belarus, Uruguay, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Faroe Islands, Vietnam, Latvia, Taiwan, Serbia, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Croatia, India, Lithuania, Hong Kong, Israel, Malaysia, Indonesia, Chile, Ukraine, Thailand, Mexico, South Africa, Greece, Argentina, South Korea, Estonia, Phillipines, Iceland, Turkey, Hungary, Portugal, Czechia, Romania, Japan, Singapore, China, Switzerland, Belgium, Ireland, Italy, Brazil, New Zealand, Spain, Austria, Russia, and Norway... And breathe.

Here's a map with all countries Warsim has sold copies in marked in blue - https://i.imgur.com/XUNwq4g.png

The fact that the game is even played by one person from anywhere already makes me feel complete. Thank you all wherever you are, for playing and supporting the game, it means a lot to this small little indie dev in Wales.

All the best

Hey Everyone,

So another update, I've been working a fair bit on some combat stuff but in the mean time between bug reports and suggestions I've been building up what has now turned into another update so here it is!

NORTHWATCH BAN (1 feature)

It's no secret that the bandits of Fort Northwatch in the North love the Thickblood Tavern, so much so that if you attack it part of the Northwatch garrison will march down and get involved sometimes. Well now thanks to a tip by TJ the fort won't be so friendly to you if you've destroyed their beloved tavern. Your options go from being able to explore the fort, buy it, watch fights, and learn more, to just being able to attack or leave.

* Added alternate screen for Fort Northwatch if you've destroyed the Thickblood Tavern (credit TJ)

The new screen for an unhappy Fort Northwatch https://i.imgur.com/5kyMntX.png

SOUND REDUCTION EFFORTS (5 features)

It's no secret that some of Warsim's sound effects can be a bit loud or too quiet, thanks to some recent reports I've jumped on some of the culprits and plan to do more in the future to better equalise these sounds.

* Reduced volume of Forge Sound 1 sfx (credit 71)

WHAT'S NEXT

So I've finally finished the 100th encounter for the battle intro system, all the race related battle intro events are now complete and have their own sound effects sorted out. I'm looking into considering race prefixes next and making sure the events make sense as best I can (ie no intro event where an enemy kingdom charge in screaming if they are Mouthless Trolls)

There's still tons more to do but it's progressing nicely. I've built several systems that will be used in the battle intro events and once I'm fully finished with it all I'm going to get on with making a plan for the rest of my combat update workload.

Here are some of the new encounters:

The arrival of some demi-gods https://i.imgur.com/YjxRZSX.png

A horrible Cthuul kingdom https://i.imgur.com/KuBLWQm.png

Some Bogeymen arriving https://i.imgur.com/Dihx2X1.png

Good old gnomes, the sound effect for this is hilarious too https://i.imgur.com/YZrWKMe.png

Cheers

KICK THEM OUT (4 features)

Ever entered your throne room, seen a line of 100 visitors and walked straight out... Well now you can just kick them out instead. If you want to kick out all but 10 visitors, you can do so. Thanks to a suggestion by LeMachinga on our discord I've added the option to remove a custom amount of visitors at any time from the 4th option in the throne room.

Warsim 0.8.3.6 (The Quality of Life Update, 119 features)

Hey Everyone,

The last week and a half has been amazing, since the Overwhelmingly Positive update we've had a ton of new amazing reviews and nearly 1000 new Warsim players! To everyone new, Welcome :)

This update is a pretty broad one, lots of little fixes and quality of life additions. I'm still working through a mix of bug reports and backlogged suggestions while also working through the combat update plans.

NAME SUFFIX SYSTEM EXPANDED (3 features)

For a long time certain name suffixes have been able to have addons added to them 'Garbald the Sad' could also be 'Garbald the Sad Knight' or 'Garbald the Sad Raider' modified by Warsim's in-game suffix add on system. Unlike adding new name suffixes, adding new suffix addons was a harder process done only within the games code. I set out to completely replace that system and have it fully moddable and accessible just like the suffix system is, so now in a new text file called 'Name Suffix Addon.txt' in the main Warsim Data folder you can find all of the possible addons followed by the battlescore bonus they provide. While expanding this system I added a ton of new addon parts which has led to over a quarter of a million new possible random name suffix combinations. You'll see these as hirable champions, staff members, enemy rulers etc. This system is even more exciting for me because unlike the 3000ish current name suffixes, all of these will be random and unpredictable combinations that will even catch me offguard. Being caught offguard with random content in a game I've spent 5 years making and know like the back of my hand is always a bonus!

* Added new moddable system for name suffix addons
* Added 265 new name suffix addons (was 57 now 322 total) (With 1199 total modifiable name suffixes this means there are 386'078 possible random name suffix combinations now)
* Made name suffix addon system 2x more likely to be used when generating names

Some of the random names created by the new system - https://i.imgur.com/nwb460p.png

MILITIA GROWTH (2 features)

A good point was made on our discord by Paul-2020 about not being able to see Militia unit growth, I've now added mention of it to the end of turn report.

* Added ability to see how many peasants have joined the milita each year in end of turn report (credit Paul-2020)
* Added alternate text for militia recruiting a single peasant in end of turn report

New end of turn report notice - https://i.imgur.com/MzqqNlH.png

DOMAIN NAMES IMPROVED (2 features)

I'm not talking about .com's here, there's a rare chance that a kingdom of gnomes could end up being called "Dibble's Domain" however this system was bugged and resulted in a lot of these 'Domain' names not coming out as intended. After a surpring number of 'fixes' not actually fixing it I managed to get it all sorted. I don't see these names too often in game as there's a 1 in 60 odds of them appearing in the 5 kingdoms you get per game. I've decided to make it a much higher 1 in 6 odds so you'll be seeing these a little more often.

* Fixed issue with 'domain' based kingdom names generating brokenly ie "'s Domain"
* Made domain based names 10x more common

TROOP TREE IMPROVEMENTS (3 features)

When vieiwing the troop tree of independent kingdoms you will now be able to compare them with your own and see more information.

* Reworked troop tree screen in independent kingdom diplomacy
* Added the option to compare your default 3 troop tiers with independent kingdoms in diplomacy (u/videovillain)
* Added colour changing breakdown depending on if troops in the same tier are greater, worse, or the same as eachother

WHAT'S NEXT

So I've recently fixed a big bug with my current combat update prototype, I'm now going to be looking to move forward and get more progress on the other events and mechanics of the new combat stuff in the background. At the same time I'm going to keep on top of bug reports and try and continue pumping out updates.

Cheers and hope everyone is doing good

I really would like to play this but I'm waiting until the official release after Early Access. Smashing work you're doing, though, thanks for making what seems like an incredibly cool game! :)

@TheRealmFluent,

Hey I appreciate the comment, and that's totally fair with the early access stuff. I have a few overhauls to work on and then I will be pushing it out of early access.

All in all if you are interested in the game though, it's not the typical early access build in that the game is 100% playable and includes all of the advertised content on it's steam page. Of the 100+ explorable areas there's a single region of 10 that aren't yet added but beyond that it's a full and playable game.

But totally valid to wait either way. I hope when you do eventually get the chance you enjoy the game :)

Warsim 0.8.3.7 (The Birthday Update, 260 features)

Hey Everyone,

So tomorrow (monday) is my 26th Birthday. A few weeks ago in preparation for this I figured it would be nice if I did a little 26 feature update to celebrate, but ended up instead aiming for 260 features, which has had been a ton of work. I decided to focus the main effort of the update on the complete rework of the second region of the Eastern lands, known as the Lost Jungle. Until now in my opinion it's one of the worst regions for having basically nothing worth doing there, so I've tried to change that.

LOST JUNGLE OVERHAUL

The new lost jungle - https://i.imgur.com/uSQDMOl.png

MUSHROOM MEN REWORKED (3 features)

Warsim discord member LeMachinga sent in a very interesting set of redesign concepts for the current Mushroom men face generator. I looked over them and compared and his version was in my opinion, better than the default. So I set out to rework the mushroom faces to fit his design, and in the process beefed up the generator to have an extra 1.44 billion new faces. As a thanks for his contribution to the mushroom men design, one of the random possible mushroom man character names is Mushinga, a reference to LeMachinga. Thanks mate! :)

THRONE ROOM MANAGEMENT IMPROVED (3 features)

After a discord discussion between LeMachinga and LeechGirl the idea to allow a maximum number of visitors to the throne room was raised.

WHAT'S NEXT

I'm taking a week off for my birthday (milking it I know), when I come back it'll be combat update as usual. Thank you all for being such a fantastic and supportive community. All the comments, the reviews, encouragement and support has been and still is lifechanging for me. I'm humbled to be able to survive on making this game and to take on board all the great feedback I get to make the game better than it would ever be alone. Thank you all so much, I'll see you in a week! <3

Cheers

Hey Everyone,

So it's been quite some time since the last release and that feels terribly uncomfortable for me if I'm being honest, but it's been for the greater good of getting this combat update progressed. In the last month the combat update has gone from about 15% done to 28% done and I'm gearing up for getting it to the point where I could potentially pre-release it to be tested and played by everyone which will be exciting.

As for this update, this is a collection of all sorts of side things worked on alongside this month. The majority of this stuff has come from discussion in the community forums/discord/subreddit and bug reports. Thanks everyone who lurks or is active in the community and those who've recently discovered Warsim, it's always very motivational to see all the activity and discussion!

CUSTOM GAME SETTINGS REWORKED (21 features)

The custom game option is meant to allow players to start a game that is customised and tweaked to their liking, but in many ways this custom game system was lacking. I've reorganised it a bit and added a bunch of new features such as, the ability to tweak the arena, and to start the game owning Darkdale, Blackmarket, and the Arena. As well as lots more customisation with the bandit horde and bandit gangs.

BANDIT HORDE FRIENDSHIP (11 features)

When you have a truce and a good relationship with the Bandit Horde, why not see some benefits of it. Now the bandits may occasionally send you gifts, but much more so if you have a higher relation. Gifts could include, a cut of gold from a raid, some goblin slaves, a new bandit hero as your champion, and more!

FRIEND OF THE MERRY MEN (6 features)

When bandit gangs form, there are many types of bandit they could be. Most are better are recruiting, or more vicious, or steal more, but Merry Men and Honest Men are your more Robin Hood types. TJ suggested having them be recruitable if you had 100 public opinion. Now you'll have the option and if they do join you, there's a chance the leader will offer to join you as a champion.

* Added ability to attempt to recruit minor bandit gang if they are Merry Men or Honest Men and you have 100 public opinion (credit TJ)

BRAWL PIT UPGRADE COST CHANGES (2 features)

After a discussion with Themastaman it was made clear that 40k of upgrades and sometimes less than 500 gold per turn in profit isn't a good mix at all. I've reduced the prices by a fair bit to make it a bit more balance.

WHAT'S NEXT

I'm returning to combat update stuff next week and am going to start looking at the fundementals of having the new combat system merged into the game with the current standard combat. I'm expecting some issues but if I can get it to work I could potentially get this early combat rework released much earlier than previously planned. This will be exactly what I've been sharing in combat update screenshots and posts but not much more than that.

Once It's released I'm looking forward to the feedback and of course from then on any combat update work won't be hidden away but will be released like regular updates. I'm giving myself 2 weeks to get this combat merge done but it could be longer depending on how things go.

I'm excited about the idea of it though!

Thanks for reading and I hope everyone is doing well :)

Warsim 0.8.3.9 (The Arena Remastered Update, 114 features)



The Arena was once the heart of the games one on one combat, but in the time since it's addition years ago, brawling/scorpion pit fights and more have been added, and all of them have been displayed a lot better than the Arena, despite the Arena being a huge centre piece. This has always bothered me but I've never had the chance to do anything about it and so have been saving a list of ideas and suggestions for the Arena for a while. I ended up here by mistake as I was working on some Arena bugs and got so deep in I figured... well, I'm here now, might as well overhaul it.

There are tons of different features and additions in this update and it's taken a lot of work, but I'm very happy to be able to finally show it, I hope you guys enjoy! :)

THE ARENA REMASTERED (53 features)

I went through the Arenas entire system and rewrote a lot of it, there are now 100s of new fight moves, scores of new sound effects and events, and a lot more randomisation and chaos.

* Added new system with sound effect for Overkill (if death is -15 hp or more)
* Added new system with sound effect for Extreme Overkill (if death is -100 hp or more)
* Added new dynamic system with 30 different tweaks to the old arena HP system to allow for more variation
* Added system to make it 5x more likely for much weaker units to win fights they ordinarily would not (Example Soldier vs Peasant previously would be 99 wins for soldier, 1 for peasant, it's now 95 for soldier, 5 for peasant via my tests)
* Added new system for Pacifist units in the Arena (they will no longer fight)
* Added 8 moves for pacifist fighters
* Added 10 new sound effects for light stabs/slashes

SLAVE GAUNTLET (4 features)

While working through my old Arena plans I saw a suggestion for a slave gauntlet by UltimateBlade from the Audiogames forums, It looked like a cool idea so why not. Now as long as you own the Arena and have 8 slave soldiers you can host a tournament for their freedom, and your profit. It will differ from normal tournaments in the way that you can't bet, and that it makes you money instead of costing it. This could be yet another avenue for profit for an unscrupulous evil ruler, or a slave baron.

* Added a new tournament type 'Slave Gauntlet' (Only if you own the Arena and if you have 8 slave soldiers) (credit UltimateBlade from Audiogames)
* Added new scenes and text for Slave Gauntlet
* Added -1 public opinion drop for running a slave gauntlet
* Added between 100-1500 gold profit for hosting a slave gauntlet in your Arena

THE EXECUTION OF A CHAMPION (27 features)

A nice suggestion from Anarcho-Raoism on our discord for executing champions got me thinking, so I present to you a new system with lots of outcomes and randomisation!

* Added the option to execute a grand champion (Credit Anarcho-raoism)
* Added 15 different reactions from arena owner (if not owned by you) depending on their personality
* Added begging for exile outcome (includes option to exile instead of execute)
* Added take my gold outcome (includes of option to accept gold and exile instead of execute)
* Added crying champion outcome
* Added stone cold expression outcome
* Added laughing at death outcome
* Added suicide outcome
* Added Last stand outcome
* Added chance of random 0-2 public opinion loss when executing champion
* Added +3 public opinion loss if champion has 30+ wins
* Added +2 public opinion loss if champion has 15+ wins
* Added +1 public opinion loss if champion has 5+ wins
* Added lesser public opinion loss for exile
* Added new blurb for hall of fame beheaded champions
* Added new blurb for hall of fame exiled champions
* Added new blurb for hall of fame suicide champions
* Added new blurb for hall of fame last stand champions
* Added 1/30 odds of Arena being destroyed in peasant riot in aftermath of execution
* Added 1/30 odds of small riot happening
* Added 1/30 odds of small protest happening
* Added odds of protest/riot/destruction much higher if public opinion is very low
* Added odds of protest/riot/destruction 25% less likely if public opinion is above 50
* Added odds of protest/riot/destruction are more likely if champion has lots of wins
* Added 5 different comments from Arena owner if unowned arena is destroyed
* Added option to choose who replaces champion if you own the arena
* Added champion challenge notification for when the champion is dead and you don't own the arena

And the aftermath of that - https://i.imgur.com/g69SPME.png

A LIMITED OCCURANCE (7 features)

Infinite fights per year was a bit excessive, and also allowed the cherry picking of when to bet and when not to. Now each year there will be a limited number of fights in the Arena depending on the size of the Arena. This won't be very noticable at the higher level of Arenas unless you are an arena fanatic.

* Added new limit of total number of fights in the Arena
* Added 5 fights per year limit to smallest Arena type 'Fight Pit'
* Added 10 fights per year limit to second smallest Arena type 'Little Arena'

* Added 30 fights per year limit to 'Colossal Arena'
* Added new secret code '69' which sets total fights to 99 (enter on arena main screen)

15 Fights to go - https://i.imgur.com/CIYvaxJ.png

No fights left - https://i.imgur.com/zmREysy.png

OTHER ARENA TWEAKS (6 features)

While working on this big arena feature addition I ended up adding and fixing things in other areas too, the one I'm most excited for is the hall of fame changes. Now when a champion dies in a normal fight, if he is added to the hall of fame, the hall of fame entry will track who it was that killed him. Previous the entries didn't have this information and still worked ok, but with this information it adds another element to the hall of fame, maybe the number one champion of all time was defeated by the number 8, perhaps some of the hall of famers were defeated by champions who themselves were defeated too quickly to enter the hall of fame themselves but are forever immortalised as the ones who defeated the greatest champions. It's a minor change but in my opinion it's quite a big improvement to the hall of fame and I'm super excited to see the new hall of fame stories develop while I'm playing.

* Added arena hall of fame entries now show you who defeated them
* Fixed issue with arena 32 man tournament second stage graphic
* Fixed text bug with public opinion loss for grand champion arrest
* Added missing menu option for housing upgrades in arena
* Removed irrelevant warning texts for bribing grand champion to fight
* Added new screen for bribing grand champion but there isn't a grand champion

Active hall of fame - https://i.imgur.com/gagfhOj.png

COLOURFUL SCORPIONS (10 features)

After a suggestion by our discord member 14Patrik, scorpions now have varying colours, Good idea mate!

* Added new colour system for scorpion pit scorpions (credit 14Patrik)
* Added white colour for Albino scorpions
* Added Grey colour for ancient scorpions
* Added purple colour for enchanted scorpions
* Added green colour for questionable (goblin) scorpions
* Added dark grey colour for black scorpions
* Added red colour for red scorpions
* Added grey colour for old scorpions
* Added white colour for white scorpions
* Added green colour for healthy scorpions

Two shots of colourful scorpions in action - https://i.imgur.com/smCu5yL.png https://i.imgur.com/uxCWTSy.png

DUMBLE-PACK (2 features)

The scourers of the Artifact Market may know of the artifact 'The Staff of Dumble' a staff that if given to a champion who bears the name 'Dumble' it will double their strength. The issue with this is there are only 4 Dumble-esque names in game and the odds of them occuring are super slim among the 1776 other human names that could be chosen. The artifact was always made to be a practically impossible one to pull off, but to help a little I've quadrupled the amount of Dumble-esque names in game, good luck!

* Added 12 new human names 'Dumblesquek, Dumbledink, Dumbledonk, Dumbledork, Dumbletwoo, Dumbledimp, Dumbledok, Dumbledoop, Dumbledonk, Dumbletork, Dumbledee, Dumbledwep' (credit NotFox)
* Added ability to give the dumble staff to a dumble champion directly from the arena menu

BUGFIXES (3 features)

A handful of bugs based on helpful reports from players. Thanks guys :)

* Fixed text bug with demon advice (credit Fatalweirdo)
* Fixed trap door upgrade being incorrectly refered to as throne room upgrade (credit Matt1211)
* Fixed mystery slaver never giving demons (credit KoningKrush)

EVERYTHING ELSE (2 features)

A few changes unrelated to everything else

* Made 'press space bar to skip' option now say 'Hold space bar to skip' (credit Adrive)
* Made 777 on Warsim main menu open up an Arena Fight tester

WHAT'S NEXT

I'm getting back into the combat stuff again as this update was meant to be a short break to get back into coding after my computer broke down for a week.
