Version 1.2!


C'thulhu Fhtagn v1.2

A big THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to comment on the previous version, especially for those detailed comments with good constructive criticism. 

We’re really glad the graphics were so very well received because we are the GameBoy generation and this is, in a way, our little tribute :) 

New in this version:

  • Title graphic to welcome the player as well as additional text feedback to help the player along.
  • Difficulty levels, so you can play without the Success chance helper once you get the hang of things. 
  • Progress indications have been improved as well - the central eye, the amount of cultists, the amount of chanting. 
  • Audio overhaul,  making chanting way less maddening at the beginning and more so towards the end. This received the most complaints, and we promised to tone it down a bit.


The road to v1.3

Event mechanics - We are thinking of count down timer changes. Right now all events are completed instantaneously, only requiring enough cult strength, with harder-to-influence events giving more reward. If the more complicated events took longer or if their duration was a completely separate statistic that would influence reward as well. Another layer would be letting the player assign a certain amount of cult strength to a given event, which would play into the duration component as more events could be handled simultaneously.

Cult management - Then we were thinking of adding some upgrades. Not too many because we would like to keep the player’s focus on the events themselves, but some…

Other variety - More headlines, newspapers, fluff text, day-night cycle graphics

Platforms - We hope to make it available for Android at some point as well :)
