Description
Kingdomonium is an indie medieval procedurally generated side-scrolling real time strategy game. Build up and command your medieval kingdom to explore and conquer the land. The game at its roots is a real time strategy game with the unique mechanic of playing as a side-scrolling 2D platformer. You play within a procedurally generated sandboxed open world environment which allows activities such as foraging, chopping, digging, mining, building, fishing, sailing, exploring, strategic combat and many more!
History
Let me introduce myself. My name is Ash and I have been working in the software development industry for over a decade now. The game dev bug bit me a long time ago but I could never find the time to dedicate myself to a project... until now :) Growing up in the 90s (I'm old, I know) I became a fan of 2 games in particular. That being Age Of Empires and Quake. Polar opposites in terms of gameplay but oh so enjoyable in their own unique way. The classic real time strategy games in particular such as Starcraft, Warcraft, Command & Conquer and Age Of Empires dished up hours of unbridled entertainment in my teens.
I lost touch with games in the 2000s but later rekindled the romance shortly after Minecraft and Terraria were released. Terraria in particular impressed me with the sheer depth and scale of the moldable sandbox world you get to play in. Around this time the basic idea of Kingdomonium was born. I thought to myself that it would make for some very intriguing gameplay to have a game that combined the strategic click and command aspects of a classic real time strategy game (e.g. Age Of Empires) with the depth, exploration and moldability of a 2D open world survival game (e.g. Terraria).
