• Next Update - 24 November 2019

  Hey All! So the latest build of the game is here: The main change in this build is the inclusion of various small spots around the map which will be gaining history and significance in future updates. For right now atleast they will add a bit more variety to the map. Expect to see more of these kinds of things in the future! :) I have also upgraded the game engine version so hopefully that should help resolve some issues users are seeing. Thanks for your time and playing the game! :)

• Festive Updates - Due this weekend - 25 October 2019

  Hey All, Just to let you know I hope to release another few minor updates by Monday which will be purely superficial, it will contain lots of pumpkins, skulls, grave changes and spooky trees. After all it will be Halloween soon! These will only appear in the game for a few weeks at which point everything will revert back to normal, well almost everything hehe. So the first update will be going live in a half hour and with this update the graveyards will change more visually as more people are buried there. The soil will change and the trees and roses will die. I personally rather like this one visually so it may stay in the game long term. Anyways hopefully you will enjoy this update. Thanks again for playing!

• A new Update - Graveyard UI - 24 October 2019

  Hey All! Another new update will be going live in a few minutes. This update contains a UI update for the graveyards. The graveyards are now clickable and they will bring up a UI showing a list of how many people are buried here and of what gender/age. In time this aspect will be built on more, but for now the next few updates will concentrate on other features in the game. Thanks again for playing! :)

• Update 0.46a - What's New? - 19 October 2019

  Hey All! Sorry for the delay getting this latest update out to you but hopefully I can become more frequent with my updates going forward. Having started a new job with a daily commute, it took some getting used to. So what can you expect in this update? Updated to the latest version of Unity. There is a new graveyards tile associated with each location, it will grow in size as the game progresses and more people die at these locations. Another attempt at fixes the armies getting stuck. I rewrote a lot of code and hope this resolves the issue. Fixed a rare but potential crash when armies meet while mid siege. Fixed various other minor issues to do with UI alignment. I hope to release another update within the next week which allows users to click the graveyards and show a simple UI detailing all who are buried there. Now you may ask why I am adding in Graveyard tiles, well with Hallowee…

• Next update - what to expect? - 9 August 2019

  Hello Everyone! So I just wanted to make you aware of what to expect with the next update for the game. In this I hope to do 2 things. Finish the new graveyards features. Fix the armies getting stuck issues. As I have recently learned the armies getting stuck issue is still present sadly, so I will try to address this in the next update. Thanks again everyone for trying out Tales of a Spymaster and hopefully in time with a lot of extra content and fixes it will become a great game 😊

• Update Live! - 28 July 2019

  Hey All! Been a bit since my last post but I have been busy with this latest update and hopefully it is an important one for a number of you. Features Added name tiles beside every location also saying the known population there. Added a new option to control the game audio level in the game options Updated to a newer version of Unity, hopefully resolving various issues. Added back support for the launch screen dialog, if the user holds alt. Bugs When someone become a traitor, their loyalty was not updating. I shall keep the update coming slowly but surely! :) Thanks again for trying the game out and reporting any issues you see.

• Next Update - What to expect, any thoughts? - 10 July 2019

  Hey All! I have got a lot of suggestions from players for features they would like to see. I am more than happy to try address all of these suggestions and with the next update I hope to address 2 in particular. Master volume control from main menu settings and in game options Tile identifiers for locations Now that second item may be something new to some of you but very important to others. The approach I am taking can be seen below: https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F34238558%2F299062e5c98f3df648991d6c3d541d8b29c00505.png I am thinking of adding these tiles to every location in the map. That way you can see the name and general idea of the population size without having to click a location. Anything about it you would like me to change? :) Thanks for all your feedback!

• Update Going Live! - 8 July 2019

• Update 0.45d - Release Notes - 30 June 2019

  Hey All! So another small update is going live there now which contains a few changes based around the camera, as per user feedback on the discussion pages. Features Remove navigate boundary limits, so users can now navigate into the darkness. When a user clicks close on a location, the camera returns to the previous position. The coat of arms on the minimap is a bit larger and more visible. Various minor UI alignment fixes Keep that feedback coming! Always happy to make changes for people :) Thanks again!

• Update Going Live! - 29 June 2019

  Hey All! Hope you are all well and you will be happy to hear another small update is going live now! :) I have spent most of the morning playing with Unity3d settings trying to remove unused components from the build and disable a lot of things that I and you do not care for. In turn, the install folder is slightly smaller, but more importantly, the game should run a tiny bit smoother as I have removed a lot of overhead telemetry that Unity is performing. On a side note, I aim to release another update tomorrow which will make some changes to the camera based upon user feedback. Thanks again for trying out the game! :)

• Update 0.45c - Gone Live - 28 June 2019

  Hey All! So another update has gone live there now. It may not look like much to see, but I have added extra support so there can be default ones, sharing a bit more of the world history. In a previous update, I added the clickable skeletons that are left after battles, well I have extended this to have skeletons dotted around the world map upon launch of the game. They are clickable too and this code can also be applied to ruins, which I will add in a future update. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F34238558%2Fa56e1e171d24adfeba41eb57bbbd86aff1a570c0.png Right now there are only a handful, but going forward I shall add more of them and add more varieties, such as ruins of buildings and so on. Anyways, thanks again to everyone who is trying out my little game! :)
