Hi everyone,
Last week I did not manage to make as much progress as I had hoped, but I want to keep you updated even if not everything works out as planned.
The most progress I was able to make was in the renders department. I worked for two days on one of the most complex images I have created yet and think it’...

Hi everyone,
A lot has been done since the last weekly update. I have commissioned an artist to create a new world map, where the pirate islands of Chapter 2.5 are included. I made the old map using pretty outdated software, and to be honest I was never really satisfied with how it looked. This new map is much more fitt...

Hi everyone,
Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been working two mini-games to include in XXXivilization. As you can see above, one of the two minigames is a small version of blackjack where you can play against opponents that may or may not lose some of their clothes when you win. Concerning this new feature, I’ve ...

As I mentioned in the latest update post (see here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/48197001), I want to give players the option to vote on an opponent to play strip-blackjack against. I plan to have one (or two if time allows) of ...

Hi everyone,
Thank you to everyone that has participated in last week′s poll – the quite decisive results have reassured me of the direction I should go in with the 2.5 release. Here’s the plan for the next few weeks:
Hi everyone,
I′ve had some reflections this past weekend. I’ve been thinking about the current state of Chapter 2.5, what will be contained, what will not make it into this version and so on. So far it looks as if I can release with what I have currently planned between the end of February and early March. H...

Hi everyone,
Last weekend I managed to finish an important piece of development that I was working on for some time. What you can see above is a screenshot of a new view where you can upgrade your ship. To be ready to battle pirates and other dangers in the pirate islands you will need a formidable ship. To that end, yo...
2021-02-09 18:53:53 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
Unfortunately I fell sick for a few days last week (no, it′s not COVID), so progress was minimal. On the positive side, I had time to think a few things through in regards to the next version, which lead me to the idea of this small poll. It will help me with a decision about whether a quickstart mechanis...

Hi everyone,
I hope you’ve had a good start to 2021 so far. To me a good game is not only its main story line and the big gameplay decisions, it’s often the little things that elevate a game from being decent and fun to play to being great. Is everything understandable and intuitive? Can you do what you want without...

Hey everyone,
Work on the big Chapter 2.5 release is in full swing and so far it′s going relatively well. As many of you probably already know, the main addition with the next version will be a new map, which will include new enemy empires, neutral encounters and much more – as you can imagine this involves a ton of...

Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a nice start to the new year. I had some days off from my job, which I used productively and worked quite a lot on XXXivilzation. I had grown a bit tired of writing events and creating images for Chapter 2.5 and later the Christmas release, so I decided to jump back into coding for a bit,...

Hi everyone,
This very strange year is coming to an end and I want to take a moment to thank you all for your support throughout 2020. Everyone, including myself, had challenges to overcome this year and it helped me a lot to have XXXivilization as a project that I could focus and rely on during some me...

2020-12-23 19:54:46 +0000 UTC View PostHi,
unfortunately there was a quite big bug in the Christmas Version that caused problems with Dark Elves taking territory away from you again and again.
I have uploaded a fix for that bug and a few others here: 2020-12-16 19:58:01 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey everyone,
I noticed near the end of November that I would have to cut too many elements out of Chapter 2.5 if I wanted to still release it this year. So, instead of doing that, I decided to spend the last week on something a little more fun – a special Christmas Edition update of XXXivilization!
Someone’s ...

Hi everyone,
Soooo, I spent a little bit of money this weekend. As you for sure all are aware, last week was Black Friday. And as it turns out, not only do shops with physical goods offer reduced prices – no, also shops for rendering resources do so. Which means I went on a little splurge and bought resources for a fe...

Hi everyone,
I have a few days off this week so I’m hoping to make a lot of progress on Chapter 2.5. The main focus for me right now are some basic changes to the way combat is implemented in the game, which would allow me to have more different and unique combat interactions in the future. I came to the conclusion th...

Hi everyone,
Last weekend I finally managed to add something to the game that I’ve wanted to do for years. I commissioned a pixel artist to create a few new images for buildings and other tiles. You can see the player capital above. It now actually grows into a real city when you upgrade it. This migh...

Since the gameplay-focused Chapter 2.4 release, I’ve been working on Chapter 2.5 which will include a ton of new content for you.

Hi everyone,
Since Chapter 2.4 is out and looks to be quite stable, I can now start focusing on the next big release. Chapter 2.5 will be quite a large version update. I’m currently in the process of planning in detail what I’ll be able to fit into it, how my schedule and release plan will look, and how I can distri...
2020-10-23 14:51:24 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
while it seems the beta paid off and the quality of Chapter 2.4 is better than of last versions, there have still been a few bugs that I want to fix, all of them related to the new beauty contest:
Hi everyone,
Chapter 2.4 is finally released and available for $5+ patrons.
This release focuses a lot on gameplay aspects and balancing improvements to keep XXXivilization fun in the long run. There are, of course, a variety of new events and 30 new images as well. There’s even a new event at the end of the cur...
