Playable Legend of Gods: a fantasy strategy MMO with turn-based grid battles, in the browser

[Caius]

Hi everyone, I'm Caius. The board says any engine is welcome, so here is mine: Legend of Gods, a fantasy strategy game you play in the browser with other people.

Engine

No engine in the Intersect sense. The town, the world map, exploration and battles run on Phaser 4, the menus are Angular with Ionic, and the server is a Laravel API. I wrote the original in Flash around 2012, and when Flash went away the game went with it. I've been porting it one feature at a time since then, with the old ActionScript and PHP code as my reference for how things should work.

Story

The story comes through NPCs on the exploration map. You talk to them and they give you quest chains, which open chapter by chapter.

Current progress

It's playable on one server. You build your town around the Town Hall, gather lumber, stone, iron, food and gold, recruit units from peasants up to angels, and lead a hero who levels up and collects items. Fights are turn-based on a grid, and units act in order of initiative. On the world map you see other players' towns and can conquer valleys and trade at the Market. Alliances, an arena and research at the University are in too. The interface is in English, Polish, German, Portuguese, French and Spanish.

Staff

Just me.

Plans

Most of the Flash version is ported. I'm bringing over what's left and adjusting unit balance as I see how people actually play.

Why play

If you like growing a town over short sessions, and fights where unit placement and turn order decide a lot, it might be your kind of game. Two things I'd like to hear from you: does the first session make sense without a guide, and is the battle grid easy to read?

Hi! Honesty I'm a bit confuse on the gameplay with the fact that I've never played your game (maybe I'm "to dumb" to understand what it is ) . I kinda have an idea on what the game is about (overall gameplay wise). I would suggest you to add more information on your post but personally I'll try it for sure in the next few days (or at most few weeks...)
