What's this game about?

Termite Wars is a fast paced RTS about becoming the last survival termite clan of the house. You will fight with other AI termite clans, consume your wooden nests to create more troops and invade every piece of furniture available.

In Development [pre-alpha #2]

Termite Wars started as a concept made in 3 days for Ludum Dare 37 (you can visit our entry and download the original version here).

Now, we are expanding the original concept and trying to make a fun full game. Current version (tagged as pre-alpha #2) is an almost final gameplay concept.

We have a DevBlog on Tumblr, check it out if you want to know more about what we are doing!

Please, tell us what you think about the game and your ideas to improve it, your comments are very valuable!

Current Features

Skirmish Mode
Almost final gameplay concept
Fully functional AI bots with different personalities
5 skirmish maps, completely different from pre-alpha #1

Foreseeable Future

More maps: We know 5 maps aren't enough. They can be fun, but will become repetitive pretty quickly. We are planning to add lots of maps on the next update.
Randomized starting points: Currently, the starting point for each player is predetermined on each map. We will change that on the next update, to add more replayability value to each map.
Better tutorial: We know that current tutorial is not as good as it should be. We will change that in the future.
Smaller learning curve: Current version throws the player against the AI on balanced maps. That's good for experienced players, but can be excesively challenging for new players. We will add some maps to help new players learn the basics of the game with some advantage over the AI before playing the balanced maps.
Campaign mode: A full neightbourhood scheme with turn-based strategy to decide wich building to attack each turn, against enemy AIs that want to conquer the world!

Unpredictable Future
