Juegos indie de gestión #HG

Q: Will there be play tests?
A: Yes, we'll begin testing around the time of early spring.
Join our Discord channel to have a chance in participating!

Q: Will there be mod support?
A: Not around the release time, but we will be considering it in the future! It will mostly depend on the needs of our community.

Q: What engine did you use to create Norland?
A: Game Maker Studio 2

Q: Will there be an early access version?
A: It will be an immediate release. Since the game has a lot of new mechanics, before that we want to do a lot of close testing among our community on Discord, starting in the spring.

Q: How much will Norland cost?
A: About $25-30. Like other games of this category, e.g. Rimworld, Oxygen Not Included, Prison Architect, etc.

Q: Will the Game have an online mode?
A: No, it is not planned yet.

Q: Will there be Linux support?
A: Not for now.

Q: Will there be savegames in the game?
A: Autosaves are a must. If you want, you can turn off manual saves and loading on start.

Q: Are we going to be able to customize what our ruler looks like?
A: We plan to customize your family at the start of the game. There are traits that modify specific characters, and there are family traits (maybe curses), for all family members.

Q: How will injuries be handled?
A: Characters can suffer bruises, cuts, damage to limbs, lose an eye, arms or head, and suffer various types of bleeding. Due to injuries, characters can temporarily lose the ability to walk, then their loved ones or priests will look after them.

Q: I wonder if you can play like a lords family as a vassal of a king. Like manage your own town, and plot to take over etc.
A: Yes, that's exactly the idea. You run the lord family, and you control your city - build buildings, trade, pay workers' wages, etc.

On the global map you have other lords living next to you in their towns, with whom you can intrigue, fight, visit them (and they visit you), and marry heirs

The highest level is the Holy Synod (like the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages) which makes sure that none of the lords have an advantage and which controls the world of Norland. . This is the strongest faction with which it is best to maintain good relations.

Unfortunately for balance reasons we are unlikely to be able to capture neighboring towns and annex them, but some form of tribute or ransom we plan to do.

Q: Are there any classes in the game, if so which ones? How is the leveling up process? Is there a "character creation"?
A: Lords characters have three skills - Combat, Intelligence, Rhetoric. Everyone else only has Combat. They are increasing during actions, during training or if one character is taught by another (this includes children). At the start you can create your own family.

Q: What is the ultimate goal of the game? For example, a settlement can be destroyed or victory by conquering the whole map or...?
A: You will lose if your entire noble family is killed. In a sense, it's a game about survival, but not among the wilderness, but in an aggressive social environment of autonomous characters living with you on or near the same map. (editado)
