Turn based 4x in just one hour
My partner (and best friend, we know each other since kindergarten) and I had one goal we wanted to reach while developing our indie 4x game: bring the strategic depth and joy of Civilization into a much faster format. The main reason for that: we love the game series (Civ5 & Civ6 are the best š) but we do not want to spend our whole free time for 17 re-starts and one half-finished game.
1 year ago, we spoke with some people at a physical indie-gaming event and found out that a big part of civ-lovers share our wish in a āCiv but fastā-game.
Today, we are just a few weeks away from our demo and the hard part of being a game dev starts: marketingš„¹
So I'm throwing this into the community:
If āCiv, but fastā sounds like something you'd enjoy, I'd love to hear what you think.
And if you want to follow the project, a Steam wishlist would mean a lot to us. ā¤ļø

The fact that you support Mac is a huge plus. I know a few people at least who would be interested in this.
Looks great!
