I will be doing some live development of my TBS game Virtualord in a few minutes.

If you want to watch it live you can join me here: youtube.com/live/6t-FyK-...

In case you missed it, the whole recording will be available on my Youtube channel after the event.

I published a new dev-log covering all main updates of Virtualord from last month: store.steampowered.com/news/app/160...

This time I also decided to localize it to several languages (DE, ES, FR, IT, PT). Let me know if you get it in your own language or English.

Yeah, old one is AMD as well, better performance and lower wattage.

Old one works mostly fine, but the battery is dying and charging is faulty, so it's hard to keep it on and I am afraid charging might stop working completely soon

my new Acer laptop

I had to buy a new laptop because the one I bought 5 years ago is almost dead. โ˜น๏ธ

On the bright side I doubled the RAM I had and I gained a 15% performance on the CPU, all this while paying $150 less than what I paid last time.

Now it's time to install Linux and to go back to work on Virtualord!

I implemented multi-language support in my game "Virtualord, the Virtual Conqueror" at last!

For now I am starting with #English, #Italian and #Spanish.
What other languages would you recommend to add next?

Merry Christmas from me and all the factions in the Virtualord universe.

They confirmed me there will be a 2 days Christmas truce to celebrate, to rest and to feast together.

I think I found my focus and motivation.

As of today, I have been working on Virtualord for 60 days straight.
The results are a new alpha build coming next week... stay tuned!

Next goal: 90 uninterrupted days of development.

Steam Hardware & Software Survey

yeah, I can't support every resolution or screen out there, but I want to try to cover all major cases based on the store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/

I got myself a 2K monitor (KTC Q24T09) so now I can fix Virtualord's code while playing the game in FullHD!

Proud to say it's refurbished, so I got a good deal and I helped the environment a little bit saving a perfectly fine item from the landfill

Yeah, that's another good point!
They're hard to see with hundreds of enemies and bullets on screen, but in the end it all depends on your particular game.
Now I'll be waiting for your next experiments ๐Ÿ˜‰

Definitely better than showing bars for everyone ๐Ÿ˜„

I am trying to decide if I should add them in my game or not, because they give me a casual/arcade feeling I don't really like ๐Ÿค”

I like it, but it looks a bit too much like Mini Metro (which might be intended)

I prefer the scene without clouds to be honest.
Maybe I'd extend the external grid an extra cell to fill the empty space, but it's all things I would leave at the very last as they are merely cosmetic (unless you're already all done with gameplay ofc ๐Ÿ˜…)

no worries and yeah, we are on the same page as my GUI system is like that too as it's specifically made for games

Hey, I replied to your other account, but maybe you don't use it any longer.

Anyway, I was wondering if stateless as in you re-create the whole UI at every change?

I am starting to design my multi-language support in my custom engine and considering different options at the moment

For #screenshotsaturday I'll show you a new dialog that creates squads of mini units that attack your enemies in Tower Defense style.

This is my TBS game "Virtualord, The Virtual Conqueror", soon available on #steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1607580/...
