It’s no secret that our record of game creation has been a twisting path. Curious what drove each project, including the unreleased ones?
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.602_Planetcrasher There were a solid pass of bugfixes, my favorite of which is that if you crash a planet into the AI homeworld, it now properly kills them. Hence the name of the update. The Dyson Sidekick mod got a bunch of reworked units from Zeus, and the Dark Zenith…

New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.595_Deprotect This one has a mix of fixes and improvements from Dismiss, and Sidekicks updates from Badger. The biggest changes in here are things to help with memory usage in extreme scenarios (think thousands of Dark Zenith in battle at once, that sort of thing). Enjoy! Heart of the Machine…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.593_Devourest This one is entirely from Dismiss. It has a lot of backlog of minor approved fixes and tweaks to things to fix a few bugs, and to make a few new things possible for coders in a non-regression-likely way. It also includes some mod updates, and a new mod…

New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.589_Lone_Zombie.2C_Progressive_Quickstart This one fixes a few bugs in last weeks’ build, like the fact that double-the-zombies were being generated most of the time. There was also a multiplayer-specific regression with an exception in general. Quickstarts are being reorganized and expanded a bit by Strategic Sage. Previously, there was a progressive…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.588_Zenith_Consistency This one has a number of smallish improvements. The most notable of these is a fix to on-death effects from Dismiss, which should lead to more consistent results that you would expect when you’re zombifying enemies. There are a large number of updates from Strategic Sage to the quickstarts;…
New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.587_Deguardianing This is a small one that is basically a dewormer but for giant guardian spacecraft.
