Imagine a 4X strategy where various agents are key pawns of action; tanglible civilians show real-life-like migration or rebellion behaviours; and units behaviour is affected by their prejudices...

Imperial Ambitions is possibly the first 4X - RPG fuse!

Do not rely on AnimatedTiles for your tile animations, if you want to do the effect in the video... It took 2 days before I decided to give up on AnimatedTiles, and just half a day to generate a custom solution.

Here how "Unrest Traits" work in IA! Discontent citizens will go on strike and later, if still unsatistied they will protest. If there is no improvement, finally they will riot. Rioting can lead to rebellion, or continue until people are tired of rioting.

Dissatisfaction, Depression and Hysteria is a progressive effect resulting from lack of luxury. Yet prospect of a new baby removes these effects temporarily... Just wait until terrible twos!

In IA, every agent has several abilities, Their abilities are listed on the right. Immidiately available abilities are found on top, others are below with a brief info on why they are not available. What do you think? Any suggestions to increase readibility? Is it too crowded? Is layout ok?

Returned from holiday and back to gamedev! I am working on alternative design for Action Buttons. There are 3 things needed to be expressed: 1. Name of the action (ie. Heal) 2. Required (ie. action points, resources, discipline etc) 3. Fail reason if action not possible Looking for design ideas?

In Imperial Ambitions units have discipline, determined by luxury and hunger. But how should Discipline effect the units' ability to perform actions? A. It determines how many extra ACTION POINTS each Action requires B. Each Action requires a min Discipline Or Another?

I love this game! But you could also show the colonies on the New Continent in your clip, after all it's an integral and defining feature of the imperialist era. Could also reinforce the 'Sid Meier's Colonization' vibes! :)

Here is a unique twist to 4X TBS, In Imperial Ambitions, everything revolves around agents; diplomacy, trade, battles... Everything. Like playing RPG inside 4X strategy. And the theme is the Age of Discovery!

Imperial Ambitions is soon getting a MASSACRE & ENSLAVEMENT Update! Players can use their General to turn peasants into slaves. Keep in mind, Slaves are likely to rebel in first sight of discourse and wudn't defend your towns from invaders. link⬇️

Don't be scared to combine shaders with hand-drawn animations. When used correctly, they can complement eachother so well.
