Every now and then I come back to these boards to shill whatever it is I'm working on now. Check out my game project - though I wanted til the Kickstarter was over so I wasn't directly begging. It's a turn based strategy game where the player takes the role of a "sleeping" super powerful demon / god being / critter and manipulates the world through the actions of agents and events. We wrote about a million pages of stuff about it on our Bay 12 forums thread and through our Dev Logs.

You're writing the perfect Christmas gift for my girlfriend. Can I still pledge somewhere?

Why wouldn't you be allowed to post links? If people don't like it they just won't back it, or maybe leave you some shart rep.

Good! I hope you do well. Any idea if you'll do more pledge options for your Paypal stuff?

Looking pretty cool! I see it was greenlit on Steam but I wasn't able to find it, is that still being finalized?

We are a looong way from releasing something to the public or even Early Access - hopefully by the beginning of the year we'll have Beta / Demo.

Here is the Steam page (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=316173232) but not a ton happening there. We were basically marketers for about a month while the crowd-funding was active, time to put our heads down and start developing though.

I'm really looking forward to Beta for this now. Will the Procedural Generation create new maps too?

Yeah new maps - the only hard part is getting the contours of the coastlines and stuff to line up perfectly - so one thing we might do is rather than allowing any continent shape we might just include a bunch of preset continents & islands.
