Game Concept

the construct of the game is you come a god. Even so, your family is non an all-powerful monotheistic style god, however like the god world health organization rises & lessens sustaining his believers. Busy people as well have the animal, your computers systems physical representation in the globecome, world health organization might develop to be a hundred feet tall & eat hundreds to thousands of your valued vilagers to benefit power or even support that you acquire additional believers.

Features

A exclusively way professional humans may interact by using this globe directly is across a h&, by owning which busy people may pick higher people, trees, food and influence the ground. We can too cast spells. But, the certain total of Prayer Power from either the believers is required to run this. One of this stake's virtually all promising features is its interface, which will be nigh buttonless. Completely that is on the screen is the globe in the game & your systems hand. To wash items like cast spells, that you move your systems hand within such how else to produce the symbol on the ground, which is known as the gesture.

Game engine

1 interesting aspect of a game is the physics system. Inside an locate, Molyneux expressed his dismay at a natural philosophy engines encountered within virtually all RTS games:

"In most RTS games you can get an archer with a wooden bow and arrow to fire at a brick wall and after like a minute, the wall will fall down"
....
"So the idea is why not introduce physics? You have walls made out of stone. How do you break stone down? You break it down with other stone, with catapults. You can't break it down with people with swords. It doesn't matter how long they stand there with a sword clunking at it, it's just not going to have an effect. And when that wall breaks down it doesn't suddenly disappear, you can form cracks in it: a little crack at the bottom, funnel your troops through, the other player can try to stop this gap up by building little boulders round the back. All of those things come from physics."
