About VIRGA with
by doppler on May 22nd, 2013
Hey guys! Be sure to add my game to your watch list!
Imagine starting up a new family in a small home. What happens when your kids grow up? They leave in hopes to start their own lives. What'll happen if your kids have children? Same thing! In this update, I hope to show you how the population system works in VIRGA.
I decided to create 4 types of homes for the people. Each level increases the overall population rate per home:
Level 1: Cabin is under constructions, no families can live here :C
Level 2: Cabin is finished, your rate of population is at x1.0
Level 3: Cabin is under construction with the same population rate of x1.0
Level 4: Cabin is fully finished with a rate of x2.0
Although Level 4 homes cost much more to create, they will increase your population rate dramatically. Here is a picture of some of the homes:
Notice how the selection border changes as you select a new house:
I plan on adding lots of trees as a resource for home development. You will be able to command people to chop and plant trees as long as they are available. If you run out of trees, you can plow down your neighbors home and gather their wood.
The next thing to do is add people. In addition I really want to make the environment more beautiful by adding clouds and other elements.
Thanks for reading! Be sure to check up on this development page to learn more!
I need help guys.
I downloaded this engine expecting a lot (even Minecraft uses this engine!), but when the install was finished, nothing showed up! I contacted several developers who claim to be using this engine and all I got was some smart *** responses like "i made it on my own". WHAT SNOBS! If you made it on your own, can you at least explain why I get a blank download!
What a waste of money! I spent $100 for the indie license and all I got was a blank screen! LOOK AT THE GRAPHICS ON AMNESIA! DO THOSE LOOK BLANK!?
I gave this engine a 1/10. Terrible support, a complete scam, and extremely expensive for a mere indie developer like myself. You'd expect better from big indies like Notch, but I guess not. All of them are in on this conspiracy! I SWEAR! IT'S A CONSPIRACY!
what are you on about?
This is the best engine ever, look at the possibilities!!!
read about unity...
Reading the "custom engine" comments made my day :)
And what's funnier is the fact that these people who can't even tell that "custom engine" is not actually an engine, are trying to make indie games :)
When is this getting released for commercial use?
I laugh so hard at the random comments, but the best overall is the "Dumbledore gets killed by Snape" review, xD!
all the games using the custom built engine look like crap! this engine gets 1 out of 10!
All depends of the engine. I use Unity3D and is so powerfull
LOL!!
Sir, you are really stupid.

Custom built engine, amazing graphics (required a very powerful computer) and has online, one of the most intense game you can buy at a store right now for its same original price (60$) because its franchise is very good.
