Battle For Google Sheets may be discontinued soon, but I don’t want that to happen.
Yes, I’m still here. However, I don’t think there’s a reason to stay if nobody cares. It seems although B4GS received a fair amount of support initially, it never gained traction and we have not progressed past the second turn (if you can call it that). There are several factors that might have contributed, but knowing exactly what isn’t trivial. On one hand, it could be because people forgot I even existed, but it could also not be.
The primary reason is likely how little the game is explained, which definitely doesn’t help given that this game is supposed to be long-term and strategy dependent. I did intend to simply explain as I go, answer any question to the best of my abilities and document things as needed, but that really isn’t enough. That, and probably the fact I am not great at meeting deadlines ;-;
Before I go ahead and discontinue B4GS, I want to ask players something: What needs better explanation? What should be added to improve the player experience? How can I make B4GS more appealing?
If B4GS does not receive sufficient activity, I will be ending it on August 1st. Do people care? Hopefully. I cared about B4GS and I still do. I don’t like seeing games with potential die and get shoved aside to be forgotten. Is this a long rant full of copium about how I can’t keep a single internet game alive? Probably. It ain’t the end of the world.
Jeff really out here just dropping this on us.
I vaguely remember hearing something along these lines, forgot the name though.
what a pretty font i sure hope the designer didn’t do anything horrific to his children and dog
Play teh game
Turn 0.2: Nothing happened.
So far, not much has happened. Lack of housing, production and resources plague the Societies of B4GS. At the very least, most players are active.
Now that we have a new turn, harvesting limits have reset and civilians will consume food. Quick reminder to players that there are no limits to building in a turn, and you can do both harvesting and building in a single turn.
Wasteof day, huh? Guess I’ll burn my money on Touhou crap and overpriced KFC meals.
Finally finished all my mid-year exams, now I can go back to more important things, like my shitty youtube video and fanfiction.
In other news, last night’s dream included Yukari Yakumo in Minecraft, and being harassed at a NASCAR event.
Pepsi Man will be the Extra Stage boss for Touhou 20 trust me i asked ZUN personally
Will this affect The Skeleton?
Im going to lose all my late night voice recordings if it needs to be factory reset
Attention, Wasteof.money! Battle for Google Sheets has now officially launched!
Battle for Google Sheets is now ready for launch. To sign up, provide the desired name of your Society, the name of its Capital, and the central coordinates. You may also select a colour by providing a valid hex colour code. You must be at least 40 tiles away from another Society. Your society cannot be located on High Mountains or Rocky Plains
While the map is quite small at the moment, it will expand over time, revealing new areas and additional resources. Special events will shake up the environment, and even give you new dimensions to explore (and industrialize).
The tech tree is locked at the moment. It will unlock later for everyone to work their way through. Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten it, but I’d like to give it some time before it’s available.
The link to the main file is below. Some of the available content can be seen here. Enjoy!
