The first expansion to The Last Federation, titled Betrayed Hope, arrives this Friday along with the free version 2.0 upgrade for the base game. TLF has been a huge hit for us this year, with its unique blend of 4x strategy, simulation, and turn-based tactics. Betrayed Hope is perhaps the most massive expansion we have…
DetailsVersion 1.900 is final touches in preparation for the launch of version 2.0 and the full release of the expansion this Friday the 14th (just a couple of days from now!). The big things in this new version are that the tutorials have all been extensively updated for the new modes, and the story segments…
DetailsNew details for you, and some new art! A bit more than a week ago, I announced Stars Beyond Reach, which you can read a lot more about at that link. The very-short explanation is that this is Arcen’s first true 4X title: think Civilization meets SimCity meets AI War meets New Stuff. A much…
DetailsVersion 1.702 is all about polish and balance for the Obscura. This includes some of the Obscura ships at the individual-battle level, and then a bunch of balance changes to the way the Obscura grow and expand during Invasion mode. Invasion mode started out as this kind of impossible thing, then the Obscura became a…
DetailsVersion 1.701 has polish for the base game and the expansion. The Obscura ships now behave a bit better with their AI — previously, in some cases they could act kind of funky in groups, but that should no longer be the case. Spy probes in the deliver spacefaring tech missions have been tuned some…
DetailsVersion 1.700 is all goodies for the base game, not the expansion. The spy probes have been completely re-imagined, and I’m super happy with how those are turning out. To some extent these missions can be very easy to “win” now, but I say win in quotes because that can be with the collateral damage…
DetailsVersion 1.611 is a collection of refinements, both for the base game and the expansion. The neatest thing for the base game is that now there is a way to restore order to a race that has devolved into a smuggler empire. Previously all you could do was kill that race if you wanted to…
DetailsIt is with great pleasure that I formally announce this next game. Finally, Arcen is doing a true 4x! People have been suggesting that we do this for years, and I’ve wanted to, but I wasn’t really ready yet. Even so, bits and pieces of 4x infuse a lot of our games, particularly AI War…
DetailsVersion 1.610 has some substantial refinements to the Armada Management screen for Betrayal Mode, and it also includes a completely-revamped style of battle with the Burlust warlords. Balance-wise, this also really tunes things up for Betrayal Mode in general. Your armadas now take time to upgrade themselves, which prevents you from doing “just in time”…
DetailsWanted to drop a quick note that all of our releases are now available on the IndieGameStand storefront. To celebrate, we’re running a week-long promotion with the site carrying the following discounts: AI War Collection (2014) — 75% off Tidalis — 80% off A Valley Without Wind 1 & 2 Dual Pack — 80% off Shattered Haven…
