Ello all,
I was not sure where to plonk this so here it is
I made a video of my first attempt to play the campaign
I really enjoyed it and hope to do more. I hope this post is easy to read, im not sure how to format on here!
Cheers,
Scotty
Hmmm
I could reupload it with out the intro?
Theres nothing i can do about the face cam though, is its recorded within the video.
Failing that you should beable to download the video direct from youtube :)
Nono, you should obviously retain your intro and face cam! It's your video!
Having had a look, it seems like no one really watches the video section on IndieDB anyway, so I'll do a news update with the vid embedded at some point. :)
To record my videos i use a program called OBS. Website :https://obsproject.com/
You add the game as a source and then the face cam over the top.
Formatting is hard on this forum :(
Yay! Excellent vid. :) I do feel bad about you losing all the time though. Try starting by building some serious defences, then conquer one of the nearby cities and again fortify it plenty before going to the next one.
The charge is the "logo" used in the coat of arms. You will be the only one able to use your custom charge in your coat of arms. Note that charges are pretty small and simple: they can be up to 14x14 pixels and are all the same colour. So animals, animal heads, tools, or symbols all work well. Some examples of accounts with custom charges:
Couldn't really get the beam thing to work, so a thistle it is. I've set a simple coat of arms for you with it, but you can obviously change it in-game. :)
So I'm currently working on polish and improvements for the singleplayer, having put in the major features for dev 5. Actually spending some time playing the game, making notes on balance and UI issues.
What I've gathered is that singleplayer is really really hard right now, and Espionage actions are happening far too frequently. So hopefully with dev 5, this will be a lot better.
If you want to multiplayer, I am also interested. Not a lot of people do it. So if you need someone or just want to have some more fun just let me know.
Cancel that, i tried again and i think i have a good tatic now. Uploading part one soon :D
Edit - actually going to hold off doing another video, the game feels quite unbalanced at the moment but that could just be me. It only seems to be a problem on the large maps D:

Yay, good video! I've just put in some code into the forums to auto-embed youtube URLs, so you should now see your video in all its glory.
Would you be up for providing me with the raw video file so I can upload it to IndieDB/Desura? (Linking to your channel obviously.)

Hey Scotty, what do you use to put your face cam in the video? (i.e. editing software)

Your videos are pretty good going to think about subscribing to you. Also just wondering, you don't have a coat of arms...
Aerial Emperor
Yes, get thee a coat of arms! You can have a custom heraldic symbol for Services of Youtubery, if you'd like. :D
Lieutenant
yesss :D please
Aerial Emperor
Cool - the way this works is as follows:

So tell me what you would like and I'll send you a draft version. :)
Lieutenant
hmmm,i am no good at thinking of art. So feel free to use your imagination as i have no idea :D
Aerial Emperor
Do you have a favourite animal, or story, or some pop culture reference you really like? I'll come up with something on the basis of that. :)
Aerial Emperor
Hmm. Given the username, how about a thistle?
Lieutenant
ooo could do :D, or some kinda beaming-up related reference...:P
Aerial Emperor
Couldn't really get the beam thing to work, so a thistle it is. I've set a simple coat of arms for you with it, but you can obviously change it in-game. :)
Lieutenant
hmmm my thistle does not show up in game D;
Aerial Emperor
Do you just get a blue background? Will check.
Aerial Emperor
Right, found the problem! It should now let you select the thistles in the editor.
Lieutenant
:D Sorry for the late reply. i will look! Forgot to post this also
Aerial Emperor
Yay for video!
