Mewgenics - souldescen
So, as many of you know, Mewgenics started as a game jam prototype that went into development 10 years ago, but was sadly canceled 8 months into development. During this time, a large chunk of music was made, and the track we are unveiling today was one of the first.

We present to you "Kat Fight", a now 10-year-old song that will finally see the light of day, accompanied by well over 40 more fully produced and jaw-droppingly good bangers by the amazing Ridiculon.

Enjoy,

Dear Pioneers,

our Closed Alpha has already started and we are very busy reading all your feedback! Thanks to everyone who is participating! The playtest continues until Monday, 25th September. If you have not received a key yet, please don't be sad. Our public demo is just around the corner, so everyone gets a chance to play very soon. :)



Gamescom 2023

We were so happy to showcase Pioneers of Pagonia in collaboration with Indie Arena Booth at this year's gamescom! We were truly overwhelmed by the sheer amount of people waiting in line to play the game for the first time! Receiving all your positive feedback and seeing the happy faces of our community really made this whole experience very special. We could not have asked for a better first gamescom! Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth, played and wishlisted the game and keeps following us on our journey. :)



Gamescom Award Nomination : Most Wholesome

We were over the moon to be nominated with so many other amazing devs for a gamescom award in the category "Most Wholesome". Even though we did not win, we appreciate being nominated and recognized for our cozy vibes!



Bandits & Thieves

Some of our playtesters asked us, if there are more challenges in our game than building a village and exploring the island. And, of course, there are! Not everything is calm and peaceful in Pagonia.



Thieves sneakily try to steal goods lying around within your territory and return them to their base. This is where your guards come in! If they catch a thief red-handed, your guards will chase them away. In this case stolen goods are dropped immediately.

Guards will only protect your own land, but soldiers are able to patrol outside your territory, which is necessary to defeat these masked fellows: Bandits! They are roaming the lands of Pagonia and are a lot less subtle than thieves. They will attack your carriers or traders, chase them away and plunder carried goods.

The only way to protect your units from being robbed is by sending your soldiers to defeat the bandits in combat. If your soldiers manage to take down a bandit camp, they will be able to retrieve some of the stolen goods. On the other hand, bandits will increase in numbers, if plundering goes successfully.

Both bandits and thieves scan their environment searching for interesting goods and are more likely to steal silver coins instead of roast venison.

- Due to an issue with some data not being cached in the game, update has been issued on Steam.
NOTE:The Steam update will reset your cache to store data cached by the remote repository on your computer. This is why your first login to the game after the update will be very, very slow. This is because it is trying to do caching. Remember that every time you visit a part of the game, if it is the first time, it will load very late. However, the second time it will load at its normal speed. You need to wait patiently for this.

Please restart Steam for strong and healthy game communication.

We are with you on the adventure,
Your M2M Team

Gameplay
Gameplay features
Gameplay Updated:

Auto-tackle lag decreased
To decrease chaos in close-quarter fights, we decreased base character speed (both for hero and titan). At the same time, we increased character speed when using stamina.

Ball (relic) grabbing
We have implemented a number of technical fixes to improve player comfort when picking up the ball.

Knockbacks of all abilities revised
Knock-back mechanics on the opponent when using certain abilities have been implemented as well as support VFX for knock-backs.

Rage gain and accumulation rebalanced
Rage (the energy needed to charge your ultimate and transform into titan form) is now taking a longer time to accumulate but the transformation to your titan is more impactful over the course of the match. The philosophy behind character ability is based on a 3 tier approach - your 1st ability is used frequently (ex: LilChi putting up the wall), your 2nd ability is situational (LilChi’s bat, or Niya’s gateways), your 3rd and ultimate ability is a game-breaker.

Auto-tackle lag decreased
We have made a number of technical fixes in order to improve comfort and control for the player when tackling the opponent. This is to minimize situations where your character is getting stuck on an object or another opponent in your proximity.

Basic speed change - difference from sprint speed increased
Minor balance fix to improve the ball’s momentum (force).

VFX system rework and major update
We added VFX for knock-back, as well as buff and de-buff for the affected hero/titan when impacted by the opponent’s abilities

Camera system enhanced
Cameras comfort improved by adjusting camera position, making objects translucent, and adding visual feedback when using certain abilities:
- LilChi wall
- Optima ray/Solar Embrace
- Zeno Crushing Thunderfall

Tower Forge: Dark Defense - Draco
We were very pleased with the interest generated by our game Tower Forge: Dark Defense. Hundreds of people have added our game to their wishlist, and we have received several positive messages that have injected new energy into our entire development team.

Work on the game is ongoing, and every week, we manage to make significant progress. That's why we've decided to share it with you. It's you and your feedback that help us shape the future of the project.

We have come to the conclusion that we want to enrich the gaming market with a game that stands out from the competition. In addition to the classic tower defense elements, we want to see a significant dose of Real-time Strategy in TFDD. To see all the changes in the game, you'll have to wait a little longer. We hope you're excited about the direction towards an RTS style, and you'll support us in our efforts to create an unforgettable game.

For now, we'd like to showcase what has happened in the recent period. You can see what our team is working on:

Map Generation
  1. We've implemented a tool that enhances our control over spawner and resource generation in our maps.
  2. Villages can now span multiple tiles instead of being limited to a single-tile building. Their size is generated procedurally and impacts the amount of resources they can provide. Larger villages mean more workers, but they also require more space for protection.
General Gameplay:
  • Forests now serve as "natural walls" for defense, and creeps can destroy them if they wish.
  • Forest removal now requires workers and takes time, rather than instant removal for gold. After removal, the player acquires wood.
  • Resource-producing buildings now offer an initial burst of resources once workers are assigned.
  • We've changed how villages provide workers. Instead of generating workers over time, as other resource-producing buildings do, villages "lend" workers to the player. When a village is destroyed by creeps, its workers perish and can no longer be used or assigned.
  • We've introduced a new Fog of War system with volumetric fog.
  • There are new UI indicators for hidden objects in the fog.
  • Additionally, we've added new tower components in the forge. Stone and wood are now resources used for constructing towers, and towers' vision is now a separate attribute that depends on the tower's height.
  • Tower components are now unlockable and infinitely usable, rather than being limited by the number in inventory.
