Mythbuster Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2008 1,260 22 38 Journalist In the middle of nowhere #6 Mythbuster, May 23, 2012 Yep, you are right! Just good looking ... no buy, I have plenty of good games ... if they want me to buy it, there must be more than just some nice graphics ... killercow Well-Known Member Apr 8, 2009 3,784 3 38 https://twitter.com/killercow #7 killercow, May 23, 2012 Well with both research, base construction, real time strategy and online multiplayer with voice chat i'm sure that there's a lot more than pretty gfx. We'll see if it plays well or if there's a skirmish mode against ai but the feature list is already really impressive. ironsam80 Well-Known Member Dec 14, 2010 1,151 34 48 #8 ironsam80, May 23, 2012 In this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2qTgciougA (look around 0:12) it seems that under the single player mode there is skirmish mode, so i think it is against ai. Mythbuster Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2008 1,260 22 38 Journalist In the middle of nowhere #9 Mythbuster, May 23, 2012 Thanks for that link! So it seems, there is indeed Skirmish mode and also different AI Level ... and it looks like that the campaign has many maps ... So ... yes, I will buy it! djflippy Well-Known Member Mar 9, 2009 4,441 0 36 #10 djflippy, May 23, 2012 Been waiting for this one. This will be my top pick for the night.

Awesome ambiance and style! Nice touch with the Nomad Brush in the video too! Looking forwards to this one!

Looking forward to 8pm PST. fernfreak Active Member Jan 11, 2012 30 0 0 #13 fernfreak, May 23, 2012 Hi! I'm Travis, one of the devs on the game, and thanks for taking a look at Autumn! Just to answer your questions: 1) Yes, there are three difficulty levels for campaign and skirmish, and it's not just about resource or stat modifiers. There are some limitations to what we can do with the iPad processor, but I think it should still present a bit of a challenge You can check out our AI's performance against other research teams at AIIDE07 http://skatgame.net/mburo/orts/AIIDE07/ (Team NUS) 2) Yes, there is both AI (three difficulty levels again) and multiplayer skirmish (3G, Wifi and Bluetooth). We've tried playing this against friends in LA while commuting by bus in Singapore-- because it's an RTS and less of a twitch game, latency problems are less pronounced when using 3G. 3) Yes, there is a 10 mission story campaign with unique objectives, like holdouts, covert missions, search and destroy, timing puzzles, straight buildups, etc to keep things interesting! 4) No level editor on the iPad yet, it is only available on PC. We're trying to figure out how to get it to players though, but it does require some processing to get the inkbrush style! 5) No IAP yet, unfortunately Lots of folks have asked though, so we should probably start working on this...

I had no idea about this game until just now! Wow! Looks awesome! Anyway as you can see from my sig I am an iPad strategy game WHORE! I just wish more Devs would realize that the iPad is IDEAL for "true" real-time strategy games............ and be more creative with the controls thus giving us a very unique gameplay experience on this platform. Having said that ...Im a big fan of 'Total War Battles' (skirmish mode coming soon!!) and I can't help but wonder how awesome that would have been if it was like this. eAdvisory Well-Known Member Nov 22, 2011 1,090 0 0 Detroit #16 eAdvisory, May 23, 2012 Woot cant wait oooooomonkey Well-Known Member Jan 15, 2011 6,307 0 0 Forge World #17 oooooomonkey, May 23, 2012 Oh damn.

That along with skirmish mode vs. AI is such a strong move and pretty much guarantees many hours of replayability and longevity! Really pumped now! (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
