Ooh yeah that could be a thing. Like how the Switch 2 game card box is red

These look pretty cool. I wish they tried experimenting with non-grey colours for the full shell, like the fun Nintendo Switch Lite and much of their previous consoles/handhelds (see GameCube, Game Boy and friends, etc.)

I hope they eventually do maybe a special edition with the full shell (Switch and Joy-Cons), similar to what they did with Mario, Zelda, and Animal Crossing for the Joy-Cons and dock. That would be pretty cool.

As others have said, full-colour Joy-Cons would also be quite nice. I think there should be an option between the “accent ring” colourways and the “full colour” ones, depending on whether you want to be boring or fun. Preferably the latter, but boring colours (and being boring in general) is “premium” nowadays unfortunately.

Probably music that gets more intense/fast-paced as you get further into the realms of each god. The music will probably be cheerful and nice with a ancient Greek kind of theme (I think? Or it could just be 8 bit music with the pixel art and all) since the game won’t be too serious (the characters say a few silly things here and there).

Also, each world will probably have its own flavour of soundtrack (Dionysus, the god of wine, would have a partying/dancing kind of theme, Poseidon, the god of the seas, would have an underwater kingdom kind of vibe, etc.)

If that’s too much for you, then that’s fine. I can always make something up myself using the beat maker thingy.

That would be kind of fun! :D

Godot is quite easy to pick in my opinion, GDScript (the language used to write scripts) is very similar to Python, you just need to get the hang of working with nodes and signals. I would be glad to help you get the hang of Godot :D

And being busy at school will be no problem, I don’t have a fixed schedule (I am also busy in school) so that’s all good.

Thanks! The relatively small player let’s you see more of your surroundings, which I think is good probably. Or maybe not, I dunno. The real reason is I can’t really do big pixel art

ok, done!

unfortunately not…

maybe someday I could do that…probably not though. What happens when you catch a country? Does it still exist on the map? Where does it go? And what even is a “wild” country, what is that supposed to mean?

Right now I’m focusing on the very core mechanics of the game (camera movement, territories gaining independence, unification, etc.). The biggest thing I still need to add is a user interface to see what country you are, start/stop the clock, see what modifiers you have, show the name of the country you selected, etc.

Maybe the non-aligned faction members can get buffs to promoting stability and peace, while the two big factions try to build a bigger bomb.

The main factions will probably be the western bloc (later NATO) and the eastern bloc (later Warsaw Pact). There will also be a third faction, the non-aligned movement led by Yugoslavia with members from the newly independent nations in Africa and Asia. I’m thinking the non-aligned movement will need to have some sort of special mechanic to stand out, but I don’t know what. Any ideas?

Okay, I’ll be careful

cool :0
