Update coming soon…new AI

August 7,2010 10:03 am 1 comment

We’ve been really busy doing updates and working on new features of the game.  With the approval to be on Steam and Direct-to-Drive as well as Greenhouse and other portal sites, we’re gearing up with improved AI, bug fixes and new boards.  Multiplayer is still coming along, but it’s proving to be a real pain.  The hard part with our multiplayer is the real-time battle sequences.

About the AI.  We’ve had some really great ideas come from the forums and we’ve decided to implement a new AI, well, actually a few new AIs.  You get to choose between NORMAL, HOSTILE or CUNNING.

Normal—updated AI we’ve been using, which is a balanced AI…it now plays better as a team member.

Hostile—Attack, attack, attack…it doesn’t really want power squares, only to kill everyone on your team.

Cunning—This AI is very strategic and likes to win by power squares and strategy.

Each new AI has Novice, Skilled, Expert and Insane settings which are now labeled L1, L2, L3, and L4 respectively (we had to do that for space limitations on our screens.)  These new features, along with bug fixes will be available as an update to version 1.1.2 soon.
