Godus Wars Battle

85

Well known gaming industry figure Peter Molyneux has launched his latest game via Steam Early Access. Godus Wars might sound familiar as it follows the God(us) game strand started by Molyneux and studio 22Cans of Kickstarter fame. Godus Wars is said to mix together the god game and RTS game genres and is priced at £10.99 ($15.99), or is free for previous Godus Kickstarter backers and owners.

'Peter has always considered Godus being two games,' the update reads, 'one tranquil, peaceful and the other war-like with bloody battles taking place across the unique lands.' Those bloody battles constitute a light RTS that leverages the world sculpting of the base Godus and pits you. The AI players hold conversations in a pre-game lobby and have personalities of fictitious players before inviting you to fight them. These are different in that you do not get to choose the map or battle type, but you do get to choose how many Followers you start with. These battles can reward any type of card.

In the game you take control of one of four Deities, which seem to equate to the usual RTS combatant races, nations, clans or so on. The Deities have distinct abilities and powers conducive to different styles of gameplay and strategic use. Armies that you can create can consist of up to 50 different unit types such as archers and catapults. Adding to the variation on offer in the game, Godus Wars boasts seven varied continents with 'hundreds of uniquely designed and modifiable levels'. The terrains/maps can change as you play as all the land is deformable, impacted by combat and so on.

It manages a staff of more than 350 people. The store has received the Cooperative of the Year award from the National Cooperative Business Association. It provides meat products, flowers and seafood items. The store s suppliers include Sprecher Brewing Company, Spirit Creek Farm and Carr Valley Cheese Company. Outpost natural foods.

If the combination of the above isn't attractive enough there are over 20 different Power Cards which provide you, as a player, plenty of variations of powers to deploy in battle to wrest and advantage. There are a further eight god powers to throw into the mix.

Peter Molyneux yesterday talked to MCV about the new Godus Wars Steam Early Access game. He explained that rather than integrate this 'wars' element into the existing Godus game, making a spinoff helped the team focus on the out-and-out brutal fighting combined with god powers and brought with it the necessary game progression speed (20 minutes required to rage in the heat of a battle rather than building up for two or even 10 hours).

'What we've ended up with is a true mix of a god game and a RTS with the ability to build your own deck of powers and buffs,' Molyneux told MCV. 'We've got all sorts of surprises in the game. Try playing around with the globe. See what happens. We really wanted to make this brutal, we wanted to make it funny and we wanted to make it exciting. I feel we've really done that and I can't wait to see what the community thinks.'

I've just had a look at what the community thinks on Steam and it isn't very positive. The messages left by Steam members are largely negative but seem to be tainted by the previous Godus PC episode rather than focussing on the new offering. Whether that is fair or not, and whether the new game has merit, depends upon your games industry and personal perspectives.

If you’re wondering how 22Cans almost-forgotten god simulator was getting along, you can wipe that notion from your mind. There’s a new title in town.22Cans today launched Godus Wars onto Steam Early Access, a follow-up to their 2013 crowdfunded effort Godus. The title costs £10.99 on the store, but will be made available to all Godus Kickstarter backers free of charge.Godus Wars is a more combat-orientated take on the god simulator Peter Molyneux originally created. In an, Molyneux described how he came to create it: “We’ve always loved the landscape forming, changing and sculpting but quickly realised that it’s slightly more uncomfortable to do a lot of sculpting with a mouse. Really what it lacked was brutality, was war, was the ability to take on challenge and use your god powers and sculpting powers to fight, war and battle. And that’s where our initial concept of Wars started.”The team at 22Cans chose to create an entirely different title rather than integrate a combat mechanic into Godus, which Molyneux explains: “We also had this idea of making it far more fluid and far more focused on battles rather than focused on belief and spreading people. We created a completely new GUI which was more orientated towards troops and battling.

It has the ability to group troops together and mix troop type together was at the centre of our thoughts.”“What we’ve ended up with is a true mix of a god game and a RTS with the ability to build your own deck of powers and buffs. We’ve got all sorts of surprises in the game. Try playing around with the globe. See what happens.We really wanted to make this brutal, we wanted to make it funny and we wanted to make it exciting. I feel we’ve really done that and I can’t wait to see what the community thinks.”According to, Bryan Henderson, “Godus’ God of Gods” makes an appearance in-game after winning Molyneux’s experimental Curiosity: What’s Inside the Cube Game.Godus Wars is currently available on PC via.
