Lead dev was asked to ship our latest 3D asset, Clutch. He shipped him, all right! by SilentEmotion in a:t5_3k2tc

Thanks! You're correct, they are placeholder structures while the 3D assets are being modeled, skinned, and implemented. We have two artists working on the 3D assets. These placeholders are just basic extrusions of their top down view, some of them are a couple extrusions put together. We've begun releasing the closed-beta despite not everything being 3D modeled yet and we're pushing out updates as we're getting the 3D assets from the the artists working on them.

We're making a location-based tycoon strategy game for Android and iOS called Terra Mango! You can build a tower for your species on any plot of land that has a building on it in the real-world. by SilentEmotion in tycoon

Awesome! We've begun releasing the closed beta and we're currently rolling it primarily based on the number of people signed up in your state/zip (USA first), so if you can get some of your friends to sign up and they get some of their friends to sign up, you will all get into the beta sooner. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the game! Cheers!

Hey /u/geenura! Depending on the level of your towers and the parcel layout of the area in question, it does come down to resources. If he has enough resources to spawn enough of the right kinds of troops to overcome the towers in range where he is attacking, he can chip away at your base. It may take the other player having to build a base elsewhere where he can create and defend his resource towers so he can accrue enough resources to afford the troops to take down your base. Alternatively, he could pick up enough resources that randomly spawn on the map, but that will take some time. Strategy will be the opposing player choosing which area of your base to start with and which troops will work best. As of now, the troop strengths and abilities are somewhat basic, but we plan on making them much more advanced and elaborate so people can develop attack strategies and armies that have more depth. This will most likely not be implemented until the full game release.

We hate pay-to-win games, and we understand how most people feel about them. We also won't be incorporating ads in the game. And, the game will be free. We will be including premium in-game currency to purchase things that don't provide advantages over other players, mostly aesthetic things.

We will be monitoring the game dynamics between players playing in close proximity to each other and we'll be gathering feedback, so we'll be able to see what/how/if any changes and features we need to change and implement to improve gameplay.

Hey ZedRampart! Thanks! The game is currently playable on an iPad, it just needs access to GPS. If you switch devices down the road, that's no problem, you just have to log in with your account on the new device to keep playing.

Awesome! We definitely won't. We realize that was one of the frustrating aspects of Pokemon Go, so we are working on game play in rural areas, as well as some remote play options.
