Continuing on it’s yearly expansion streak, Arcen Games, LLC has recently released Destroyer of Worlds for AI War. For those unfamiliar with the base game, AI War is a space-based RTS game. The AI is out to destroy the last vestiges of human civilization and it’s up to the player to put an end to it. In order to survive, players will have to capture strategic planets, scout complex planetary layouts and eventually amass an army to conquer the AI home world. No pressure.
When in doubt, use bigger warheads.
Arcen Games: "This is an idea that I originally had for The Last Federation, our upcoming title, but which I think could be applicable to all sorts of games, including our last title, Bionic Dues. Right now it is just a for-future-exploration sort of idea, but I wanted to put my thoughts out there and see what sort of response players have to it.
So here we go."
Chris Park: "Postmortem sounds so grisly, doesn't it? I was tempted to call this a retrospective, but that sounds a bit foofy. So here we are. This isn't even a true retrospective, because AI War is still going strong and looks to remain that way for some time.
The time period this postmortem will examine is May 2009 through the end of May 2013."
