Few thing happens, and this is now my main project with highest priority. This is economic strategy sattled in fantasy world of Arashia.

In this game you build a tevern, manage it, hire staff and do a lot more.






Link to indiedb, where I will post updates: http://www.indiedb.com/games/arashia-tavern

Ctrl-c, ctrl-v summary from indiebd, couse I'm lazy:
"Economic strategy, where you have to manage tavern in fantasy world. Buy supply, hire locals, sell beer and have fun. But be aware: disasters, monsters, bandits and dishonest merchants are stand in your way! Of course there is more, like animal husbandry, food creation, cultivation of plants, brewing, completing missions, influencing the local political and economic situations. What kind of tavern do you want to build? Suspicious dives where thugs handled by their case? Luxury inn, where only the wealthiest may visit? Famous among heroes tavern, where there's always something going on? A place full of fun, where the music plays from morning till night? It's your choice, the possibilities are endless."

Sounds and looks like a great game idea! Good look with this

Cool project! Good luck with development

That looks so cool! Can't wait to see more updates.
It's a very different project from what we usually see here, best of luck !

I love the concept, Pherael.
What are your plans for it? Which platforms?

I don't know yet Windows and Linux for sure. I think also Mac. In future, maybe for tablets.
I want to crowdfunding this, I will see if there will be interest in this project. A lot of depends on it.

The concept sounds very appealing, also the pics look very atmospheric. Good luck with the project.

Good luck with the project. Seems like an awesome start.

Bulding Tavern, I forgot to capture music & sound from game so I add Mozart

Haha ... that's brilliant! Nice choice of Mozart too

impressive!

not my type of game, but the graphics are impressive.... neat, clean...

is the entire game played from orthogonal overhead view or is there a first person 3D view switch in the game?

will continue to watch your progress with this... good luck...

Main view is overhead but with some freedom. There is no first person view, but I seriously considering to add option to visit your tavern as guest.

First I want to show few more screenshots





I also run facebook page for project, please like if you want

But the most important thing I need some help. The problem are lights: As you see light look good in screen below but multiple light sources make great fps drop.


So I was thinking of alternate way, like lights without casting shadows, but then light penetrate through walls:


My question is, is there any way to stop lights penetrate through walls? Likie crop them to certain shape. Or something else. I have no idea how to face this problem. Meybe sombody know other way to improve performance with multiple lights?
