SWEEEET GAME, and no it isnt a remake its 3rd person single control, not controlling everyone i believe.
I only read the description, but that game says it is a turned based strategy game, and even mentioned Civilization... ? Edit: On an unrelated note, do you still play Bug Heroes at all? I remember you from that thread. I loved that game.
I'm just not seeing it at all (and yes, I do own Battles and Castles, which has turn based combat, tile based movement, no real time action elements, totally different art style, different perspectives, etc). The differences should become more clear as we release more details and a trailer To my knowledge though, the closest thing out there to Heroes & Castles is... well nothing That's one of the reasons we're making it! Heroes & Castles is all about being immersed inside of a battle that you influence - its just as much a 3rd person action game as it is a strategy or castle defense game. We want you to feel like you're right there part of a huge battle... Its just an awesome experience when you're in the fray alongside your towering giant allies, with your pikemen vanguard and your dwarven musketeers firing away from behind you on your castle walls And it only gets better when playing co-op! No beta for this one Good news is we're pretty far along in development, so you won't have to wait very long Hoping to release a trailer soon.
If I understand the Heroes & Castles description correctly it seems possible the Bug Heroes engine is at work here too...
This game looks like bug heroes with more allies, and you being the allies. Looks real great, I say. Can't wait!
There are some definite similarities to Bug Heroes... but Heroes & Castles is more about immersion in a huge battle, building units, and managing your gold, buildings, and defenses. All of our games use our in-house engine, the Origin Engine... as you can see its come a long way since NYZ1 The good part about our own engine is we can be a lot more flexible in certain things, which is why we have just recently been able to put out more games, that are better! Anyway, should have a gameplay trailer out sometime soon!
Or more like Warcraft 3? Love the scenery and everything. So like Warcraft, but more focus on the hero? No complaints. This looks damn good. Btw, I know this is wayyyyy to early, but should we suspect villains and castles? And how does unit building work? Do they just spawn and attack? Or do they come from your castle and run along a designated path?
Woah where did this come from. I really like the fact you guys are pumping games out quickly. I've played them all and love all of them. I must say I'm really excited for this. Thanks for the news!!!
Units spawn from your castle, and then seek out enemies to attack... well, depending on their behavior. Some units you build like archers will stay on your castle walls and defend. Some like the dwarven Blunderbusses patrol near your castle walls on the ground. Each unit has their own AI. We'll go over in more detail the hero, unit building, and base building aspects of the game in the following days Thanks man, we really appreciate all our fan support
Looking awesome. Release this year, hopefully? Edit: cool. It has co-op. my anticipation of this game just went up 150%
Good news! Looks like we'll be getting a lot of good releases then-RS2, Forgotten Memories, NFS, 2013 infected wars, MC4, now this. Nov-end of year is going to be an awesome time for iOS gaming. How long has this been in development?
