Hey there, a question:
Would you back a KickStarter to convert Reprisal Universe for Tablets? :D
Update (35.19) live! Kindling, Options, Fonts and more
http://store.steampowered.com/app/319560
Thank you for all your feedback since it’s launch just under two weeks ago.
I’ve addressed issues of the Kindle tool and also AI balancing in this build. There are now options to turn Kindling ‘off’ for both 1UP and CPU players. You will also have the option to change the 'Flag’ speed effecting how fast populants are made in settlements. These options are located in the options panel on the Island Overview page (The Question mark located bottom left of screen)
I also wanted to list some keyboard short cuts that may help:
1 - (When on in the options) switch to Kindle
2 - Switch to terraforming tool and open earth totems
3 - Open Wind totems
4 - Open Fire totems
p - pause
And then here’s a cheeky one, if you want to 'grab’ the screen to a PNG, press 'c’! (Make sure you save the file with a .png on PC)

Reprisal Universe will be updating across all other distribution platforms within the next week :D
The new font is really taking hold in the new update for Reprisal Universe. Rolling out on Steam and then pushing to GOG :D
Not long to go! :D
Finally managed to get lava flows working :D
Back to deving on PC after a week away on the Mac, happy to say all updates work :) I still need to benchmark the full screen mode but works like a dream on this rig.
Today witnessed the first connection to the online Reprisal Universe! This screen may not be that exciting but it marks a milestone in Reprisals development.
Today has been a strong day of code :D
Note the randomly generated player name, ha!
This month we are game jamming with a little idea we’ve had for a while. Hopefully will be able to bring you a little update on it in the next week or so.
It’s nice to have a step back for a break to take stock of Reprisal. In down time from the jam I’ve been noting a lot of ideas and what exactly the ’Universe’ will be … and become! Thinking over if you will need a network connection for this or not. Hmmm.
I thought this island looked familiar this evening, the island ‘Stuck in a rut’ is what the original Reprisal Island’s art print was based on. I’d just completed the 'Invaders’ island on a crazy hard CPU AI setting.

The Original Reprisal print
Happy New Year! :D
