As an indie with a steady income, I have the ability to make prototypes and shelve them as needed.
Today is one of these times.

After spending some time to get Mercenaries running on Unity (2 Players + AI Skirmish mode) I find myself unsure whether the idea is worth pursuing altogether.

Some of you may already be aware that I was part of the Week of Awesome II jam a few weeks back (and finished 4th! yay!).
I've already explained my reasons to participate in this event, and one of them was merely to test Unity and see how it could affect my production workflow.

A few months ago, we've chosen to scrap the way the combat system is currently handled because it does not meet our expectations of what …

I've made a lot of progress with the combat simulator and I wanted to take the time to validate the current direction.

The week that was!

Finally managed to release our first Video Log for the project.
