## Description

Multiplayer has not been thoroughly tested through the game jam time, so please be patient with bugs and desyncs.
It uses a custom lock-step network solution under the hood to allow full sized battles.

 Grain & Glory is a strategy game inspired by the old-school RTS genre. Build up your economy, advance through the ages and siege your opponents. You'll gain an increasing wide selection of powerful and specialised units to counter the enemy army. Build and protect your economy, raid and disrupt, or boom into a grand decisive battle.

Features
- Online multiplayer: 1v1, 2v2 or free-for-all with friends, or play against bots. You can mix humans and bots in the same lobby. Spectators supported!
- A roster of over 20 units: infantry, archers, cavalry, priests, mages and siege, each with upgrade lines and clear counters. Build your army your way.
- Three ages: Village, Kingdom and Empire. Each advance is a real decision with a real cost.
- A new map every match: procedurally generated terrain with fog of war and four map styles, including Black Forest and Gold Rush.
- Classic RTS controls: box-select, right-click, mini-map, rally points and control groups.
- Replay support: Save your favorite games and rewatch them
- Editor: Freely place units and watch them battle it out!

If you're new to RTS games, please play through the brief tutorial and try a game against easy bots.

Early development
Grain & Glory is still early, but I'd like it to set a new bar for multiplayer RTS in s&box.
Balance is being tuned all the time, so feedback helps a lot: which units feel too strong or too weak, where matches drag, and how fun the bots are.
Thanks for playing!

Credits
- Design and development: Nick
- Art, sound and music: licensed asset packs, listed in the in-game credits.
- AI tools were used for some early placeholder art. Most of it has since been replaced with proper assets.

- The custom lock-step networking and crowd steering code was actually an experiment I built months ago in Godot, and ported over to S&Box!
- I have an extensive suite of simulations/tests that I run with every change. Every minor balance adjustment runs through 2000+ parallel games to check.
