Ymir is a 4X multiplayer strategy game combined with a city builder where each player develops a civilization of pigmen starting at the stone age. On one hand you have to govern your state : colonizing new lands, securing resources, dealing with your neighbours, choosing civics, discovering technologies, waging war.. And on the other hand you have to organize your cities : creating fields, houses, industries, defences, managing your population, your resources and your armies... Ymirs relies on an economic simulation more than a set of abstract game rules. Your society is divided in social classes with a dynamic incomes and wealth, depending on the resources they produce and sell at dynamic prices based on offer and demand. It's also a game of diplomacy between players. With a wide range of diplomatic treaties, you'll be able form federations of players, or empires centralized around a single king. You'll be able to setup permanent trade routes, taxes, tributes and alliances.

After being successfully greenlit in 11 days last year, Ymir has been in fulltime development since.
Now , yes, considering this is a one-man project, it does take its time but hopefully its slowly getting somewhere!

Here's a new gameplay video showing off all the gameplay mechanics available to organize and build your city defenses:
- modify the terrain heights to improve the natural defenses like hills.
- build platforms to create walls and bridges.
- customize your defenses with gates, battlements, hoardings and towers.
- use the strategic tool to define your troop's deployment positions and behavior in case of battle.
- create defensive zones that your troops will defend.
