• Paused Development - 17 December 2022

  Hello fellow commanders, You may have noticed it has been rather quiet around here lately. As mentioned in the Discord a while back, I have paused development on Micro Annihilation. But, why? As you can see with the number of reviews, Micro Annihilation has not picked up much steam (no pun intended). As dear as Micro Annihilation is to me, being based on a childhood story I made up while playing with Legos and Dune II, Micro Annihilation was simply not bringing in enough income for me to continue. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like. That being said, I really do wish to go back to Micro Annihilation. I was at the brink of the "spiders update," splitting the Toxians into three subfactions, the grubs, the ants, and a host of new enemy unit types all based on exotic spiders from around the world. I still look back on Micro Annihilation fondly. I even play my o…

• HEROIC Update - 14 June 2021

Each hero has their own background story. https://i.imgur.com/y8YXBp6.png Heroes lost during a mission stated in mission results. https://i.imgur.com/0HkvHo2.png Review your existing heroes, and your hero memorial, on the world map screen.

NEW FEATURE: Streamlined Acquisition Point Economy Upkeep has been replaced with a much simpler population system. https://i.imgur.com/owts70d.png Ground combat units and Dragonfly consume one population space, whereas gunships occupy three.

• RESURGENCE Update - 11 May 2021

  NEW FEATURE: Commanders 1.1 Commanders remember YOU. They will boast about their prior victories against you. They will whine when you defeat them. They will surprise you mid-battle to ruin your day! And much more! Who will become your adversary? What will your story be? https://i.imgur.com/SiCdjMy.png Added four new commander traits. One example: some commanders are particularly cowardly... Commanders can now surprise you mid-battle! Added several new personalities. Commanders now have unique appearances. https://i.imgur.com/B2soB3g.png Added "Fluppp" as a possible grub commander name. (Thanks Fluppp for helping me when I was on vacation!) Added "Frazzz" as a possible grub commander name. (Thanks Frazzz for the videos!) By the way, you should join our Discord and shape Micro Annihilation's future! NEW FEATURE: FINALES! After a while, the enemy will decide to either "blitz" you, throwin…

• (Re)introduction Update - 2 April 2021

  This update adds a proper introduction to the story, and tutorials, to Micro Annihilation! Big thanks to the players on Discord, who continually guide Micro Annihilation! Introduction At the start and end of every mission, you now get to watch your command ship fly in and out of the underground hangar! https://i.imgur.com/iLVesnc.png You can finally see what a "Micronian," a member of the United Armies, looks like! They're kinda cute! https://i.imgur.com/Y6bhv1G.png ...and positively tiny! Flowers for scale! https://i.imgur.com/BpPwbNm.png Added three hand-crafted missions, which teach the player how to fly their command ship, how to build their base, and how to lose. Yeah, you read the last one right. Missions Supply run and resource rush mission metal deposits now give 2X resources. The camera now "flies" to your command craft at the start of each mission. A little bit of cinematic sp…

• The COMMANDERS Update - 23 March 2021

  I am proud to announce the COMMANDERS update is now live! This has been a massive undertaking, as evidenced by the two week duration between updates. That being said, I am confident you will quite enjoy the added excitement and surprises these new commanders and other AI tweaks bring to the game! Not only that, we also included a solid pile of user experience improvements as well! The Commanders Enemy commanders will now appear on the world map as red holograms. https://i.imgur.com/fiVqzZC.png After each mission (essentially a turn on the world map), the commanders will roam around the map. When an enemy commander enters your territory, a new Defense mission type will be available. If you lose the mission, the commander will take over your territory! Yes, this means the Toxians can now take your territory! https://i.imgur.com/Slf3WKd.png Commanders can have an array of traits, from pref…
