A downloadable game for Windows

FolkOrigin

...is an RTS game with an RPG flavor, in which the entire world is set on a 2D hexagonal map. The main idea is to expand the settlement in such a way as to ensure the production and extraction of as many resources as possible on the map. A well-planned distribution of labor results in the effective acquisition of resources necessary for trade, thanks to which our settlement becomes rich and individuals have the opportunity to produce items that strengthen their individual characteristics. A well-trained and equipped unit is the key to defending the settlement, conquering subsequent zones on the map and surviving in a world full of Slavic monsters.

About us

Work on the project started in September 2023. I am working on it with my younger brother. He creates all the 2D assets, draws buildings, landscape elements, characters, etc. I take care of everything else - coding, testing, writing all in-game content, publishing, etc.

The game has been made available in early access to show what we are working on in advance, which (we hope) will help obtain constructive comments that will help develop the project as best as possible, correctly and without errors.

Generally, we are working on a game that we dream about and that we want to play ourselves :) STEAM:  https://store.steampowered.com/app/2863790/FolkOrigin/

Hey, I just tried out your game, it's already pretty good! 

Some tips: You have probably already thought about this, but I would make the fog-of-war tiles black instead of white. It's a little easier on the eyes and looks a lot better in my opinion.  

Also, I think the game will look a lot better if you add lighting/shadows to it, no shadows makes the game look a little flat.

Another change that might help is adding little grass patches to the bottom of the structures, minor stuff like this can make the game way prettier. 

And from a gameplay perspective, when placing buildings, adding workers to it everytime can become tedious. So maybe when building something, have it automatically assign some workers if any available? 

Lastly, the UI is good for now, but you might want to change that at a later stage as well. I got lost a couple times and the development/upgrade menu is a little overwhelming. Maybe some clever colorcoding can fix it. 

But I have to say, I'm impressed with the level of depth the game already has, I use Unity myself and I can tell that this costs a lot of work to implement and have it function properly. Anyway, keep up the good work, looking forward to seeing where this project leads!
