A demo!
In the new year I want as many gamers to try out Bulwark, so I've decided to start with Base Builder Fest.
A free demo will be available during the entire fest. (and probably a bit ahead).
Officially I am declaring this a pre-alpha demo as development is still ongoing. But I've taken time to prepare a voiced tutorial and as much guidance as i can, and I hope players will find a polished experience.
Unlimited
The content in the demo is unlimited , there are no timers or limitations to what you can build, though only 1 starting scenario is unlocked. You can still fly around the wider Ursee, though it isn't fully developed out yet, but you can build traderoutes and start a colonoy wherever you want. There are some pretty epic spots on the Ursee.
Tutorial
But it's best to start with the tutorial, which will explain the building system and mechanics such as traderoutes, after the tutorial you can keep building and random encounters will be spawned and captains will sail up to your harbours to offer their services.
Freebuild
Freebuild mode is also available in the demo, here there are no story elements, no resources , just unlimited building anywhere you want.
[Friends and Enemies]
The demo contains just about all the content I've developed so far for Bulwark, but with quite a bit of development to go it is still pre-alpha and content incomplete.. The main feature that will be added is the ability to make friends and enemies across the Ursee, this more strategical layer isn't available in the demo as it is under development.
Discord
In general this demo is there for people to get introduced to the freeform building and open world building concept and provide feedback to me so I can improve the game. If you find bugs or have questions please join the discord and the conversation there :https://discord.com/invite/falconeer
In general have fun and remember this is just a sampling of what's to come.
Cheers,
