Due to the scale of the game, and its specific nature (huge battles with thousands of soldiers, and a mix between RTS and 3rd person), getting basic features to work is, in itself, quite difficult. Sellswords is my dream game, and I still hope that I could release a game like this one day!īut the more I make progress in its development, the more I realize that this kind of project is really not suited for a one man team. I'm sorry to talk so much about money, but this has a lot to do with what happened. So far it's doing pretty good, and should allow me to continue developing games in the near future. This little zombie game called SwarmZ was born, and was released on november 29th. If I wanted the studio to survive, I needed to find another way to bring money to the table.Ī couple months ago, I decided to concentrate my efforts on a smaller game I could release quickly, in an attempt to save the studio, and allow the development of Sellswords to continue. This led to a point where I had to make a choice. A lot of people seemed to be interested in the game, and overall the response from the community was amazing! But, due to the fact that the game was in a really early state, most people were waiting for the game to advance in its development before considering buying it, which is totally understandable.ĭeveloping updates took a lot more time that I originally planned, and as the months went by, I was more and more worried about the studio's finances. Some of you may know that I've been working alone on this project, which partially explains why the development is taking so long.Īs a solo developer who didn't have any funds to start with, I was hoping that the sales during early access would finance the development along the way. The past few months have been tough for the studio, which basically went close to bankruptcy. It's been a while since I've posted any update, and many of you are rightfully asking about Sellswords future.
As a captain of a mercenary company, you shall travel the world seeking for contracts, manage your company, and take part in massive battles.
