I've been looking forward to this for a while.

You can play the guy's original Reprisal online in your browser now: www.kongregate.com/games/electrolyte/reprisal

Totally a Populous homage/clone and very well done - well worth a couple of hours and reminds how disappointing Godus is.

Danjal Young God Posts: 1,124 I like: Tactical/Strategical games. Depth and complexity. Meaningful choice & consequence in games. Games with a lot of story and content. I don't like: Shallow repetative gameplay. Twitch reflex gameplay. Generic repetative online play. Abusive monetization models.	Another Populous Clone, or what Godus could have had?

Reprisal Universe is the new 'MMO'd version due out next week.

I missed this line - I just assumed it was just the same earlier version!

I saw it described as a 'passive' MMO. shrug will see soon when I buy the steam release

I thought maybe the MMO part was a sort of joke, as it looked like it might be some small multiplayer battles with the MMO part coming in the form of scoreboards. Turns out some of the latest Pacman Arcade Edition games are MMOs by that metric!

Griffork: I'm back! Just saw the trailer of Masters of Albion and it's a godgame! Immediately thought of this forum and decided to visit. Aug 21, 2024 7:51:22 GMT

Griffork: I think I've sent you a discord friend request (if I've done it right) Ba'al! Aug 21, 2024 7:53:46 GMT

Griffork: Sorry for being away for so long. The job I had at the beginning of the year seems to be having a full-blown melt-down (and I got caught in it). I'm now at a new place but the new job has been a very hectic learning experience (yay for being on R&D!) Aug 21, 2024 7:55:26 GMT

hardly: Dammit you beat me I wanted to be first to come back just to remark that he’s at it again. Aug 21, 2024 10:08:21 GMT

hardly: Anyway, just wanted to say hi for old times sake. Damn Peter Molyneux. Aug 21, 2024 10:09:55 GMT

Lord Ba'al: lol\ Aug 21, 2024 17:32:20 GMT

Lord Ba'al: Hi hardly! Hi Griffork! Aug 21, 2024 17:32:42 GMT

Lord Ba'al: He is indeed at it again. I read a few lines from some article saying he took something from this game and something from that game and something from yet another game and put it all together. Aug 21, 2024 17:34:06 GMT

Lord Ba'al: Then it mentioned there was this big hand mouse cursor, and I was like, nah, this will be shit. Aug 21, 2024 17:34:25 GMT

Lord Ba'al: Initially it was promising though, as it mentioned he had "put the old band back together". Aug 21, 2024 17:35:05 GMT

Lord Ba'al: By the way, I closed the whole forum for posting, due to the fact that all that was being posted was spam, but if anyone wants to make a post, I'm happy to open it up again, even if that's maybe just temporarily. Aug 21, 2024 17:36:02 GMT

Lord Ba'al: Or... post in the spammer section, and I can always move it elsewhere
