Game 3 Devlog
Hi all, here's the update this month. It's a full update that covers the OST work that I've been doing for game 3, Nightlanders. I'll now be shifting back from working on music to working on the other parts of the game.

Continued Soundtrack Work
Hi all, here's the update for this month. It's a lot simpler, and I predict future updates will be simpler for a while, because I'm mostly working on the soundtrack these days. I expect it to take a while, but I should be able to finish it in the end.

Small Patch, Renaming of Units Added
Hello all. Once again, thank you to everyone for playing Magellania. This is not a very big patch, but I've seen too much gameplay of units running around named "XXXXXX" (that's the default name on the character creator). It's a fault of the UI design, but I've fixed it, so pleas

Once again, thank you to everyone for playing Magellania. This is not a very big patch, but I've seen too much gameplay of units running around named "XXXXXX" (that's the default name on the character creator). It's a fault of the UI design, but I've fixed it, so please go and name / rename your units now at the recruit shop that all the names can be changed.Allowed units to be renamed at the recruit shop
Ask for confirmation for names given
Changed the store thumbnails
Fixed a music track that did not play
There are a lot of other glaring issues to me, since it is a very old game and I'm not a great programmer (even worse at the time I made it) but for now, this is all I can address. At some point I'd like to go back and make more fixes, but for now my focus has to be on progressing game 3.
I may be away for a bit. Progress is continuing and I expect to write the monthly update to that, so look forward to it!
Best,

Response To Giveaway
Hi all, Thank you to everyone who participated in the giveaway! I didn't expect this many people to take notice, or the reception to be this positive. And for everyone who joined, welcome. Here's a few things: 1) Magellania was the first game I made. Actually, it's pretty old by
Original postHi all,
Thank you to everyone who participated in the giveaway! I didn't expect this many people to take notice, or the reception to be this positive.
And for everyone who joined, welcome. Here's a few things:
1) Magellania was the first game I made. Actually, it's pretty old by my standards. There was a second tactics game, and now I'm currently working on a third game (an RTS), and you can read the monthly devlog on my substack.
https://substack.com/@illun?
2) A few people have asked about it, so I've set up a small Patreon.
It's just a tip jar for now, I have some artwork files and archived stuff I'll post on there later, but it won't be on a schedule or anything.
https://www.patreon.com/cw/Illunsoft
3) We also have a small Discord server! It's mostly another way to receive updates.

As always, thanks for playing! I'll see everyone next time. - Developer post

I've decided to run a short event for Magellania. The game will be free-to-keep during the following days: Feb 6 - Feb 9, starting and ending at 10:00 AM PST, so please spread the word! If this event goes well, I may run another event for its sequel, Juno 06, sometime in the future.
As always, thanks for tuning in.
Update ChangesThis is a minor update that makes some changes, mostly for consistency:
Improvements to performance
The new Illunsoft is used in the startup
The UI and typography have been updated, including the main fonts used
