Warriors of the Realm

Real-Time Strategy Project

Early Development

Project Github

Play as three different factions: Knights, Orcs, and Vikings.

Each faction will be unique, with distinct strengths and weaknesses.

Aim:

sandbox mode
PvE, PvP, 1V1V1, team-based modes, King of the Hill
procedurally generated levels.
Dice roll on Hit and Dice roll-on damage inspired by D&D and Warhammer.
Base building, resource management, and command of multiple units.

This game will use low poly characters and art design for the world.

The assets pack for this project is from Synty Studios.

Using these assets will allow me to focus on programming and game mechanics.

Game loop

The game loop for the game involves the player gathering resources to construct their base and recruit units. These units will serve the dual purpose of exploring the environment and engaging in combat with enemies across the game world. The primary objective during enemy encounters is to achieve victory by conquering their territory and demolishing their bases.

Gather resources
Build Base
Recruit Units
Explore
Attack
Conquer

Combat Loop

For the combat in the game, there will be 3 different unit types with strengths and weaknesses. The loop for this is based on rock, paper, scissors.

Sword and shield: Wins against Archery, loses against Heavy weapon
Archery: Beats Heavy weapons, losers against Sword and shield
Heavy weapon: Wins against Sword and shield, Losers against Archery

UI Design

For this game, the UI is important to know how to navigate the menus, buttons, and UI systems. The UI design is currently in greyscale.

With a greyscale design created, I will now be able to develop the functionality of the UI focusing my aim on making it functional before anything else.
