Version 5.0 is out most places (not yet Steam, but that’s coming) along with the latest massive expansion, Light of the Spire. This is a big milestone! And you might notice that the next expansion isn’t due until late this year at the earliest. So what happens in the meantime? Well, our take on the…
So I promised a first screenshot on Friday, didn’t I? How foolish of me. Not only did the release of AI War 5.0 / Light of the Spire take longer than expected, but also we ran into some issues with the art that have set us back some. It turns out that a purely tile-based…
The Light of the Spire Arcen Games is proud to announce the release of AI War: The Light of the Spire, the game’s biggest expansion ever. Available now for $10 through ArcenGames.com and coming soon to digital distributors. The expansion is packed full of new additions. The “Fallen Spire” campaign brings in-game linear story elements…
Notice anything different? The site has gone through a major overhaul. It’s a platform shift to Joomla from just raw PHP, it includes a ton of visual upgrades, and it’s organized way better. In general, it’s just more functional, easier to get around, and more attractive. Not to mention long overdue! My personal blog has…
This one has another handful of maintenance fixes.

So far, no reports of any desyncs since a few versions back, which is seeming very promising. …

Tidalis Official 1.016 This release doesn’t include any new content, but it really improves the game in general. The biggest change here is an upgrade of the Unity 3D engine (which powers Tidalis) from version 2.6 to version 3.1. The number of improvements in the Unity engine between those two versions is nothing short of…
This one is just a small maintenance patch to fix some crash issues in RC1.
This one brings us very close to the next official release, which will be 5.0. The last major issue is one multiplayer desync that we’re chasing down. As soon as that is resolved, we’re pretty much ready to go. There are a few last things we intend to tweak and fix, but it’s expected that…
This one has yet more polish, mostly fixes and balance updates. Once again, the list is fairly lengthy and is quite all over the place, so it’s difficult to summarize without just restating the entire thing. Here are a few particularly notable items, though: Desync handling is now way better. It logs some important data…
