1.0 Release Developer Stream

It's been over 7 years since we started development on TFC: The Fertile Crescent! However, in actuality, this is a game that has been 20 years in the making. Andr has been dreaming of making an RTS for the majority of his life, and it has all resulted in this moment, which we are excited to share with you all! After many false starts and attempts at making an RTS that brings new ideas to the RTS space, 7 years ago a set of different mechanics and systems finally presented themselves to Andr. Soon after, I met Andr and was super excited to jump on to help out in any way I could. As a big, but very different type of RTS fan, it was a dream to contribute to TFC. With Andr's sense of numbers, balancing and symbiotic game mechanics, and my more casual approach to RTS games, we truly believe that we have made something special. TFC brings new ideas to a genre that in recent years has seen a bit of a revival, and we are exalted to be part of what is hopefully a long and healthy wave of quality RTS games for anyone who wants to check them out! Come join us on the stream, where we'll talk more in-depth about the trials and tribulations of the development of TFC, what we have learned, what we wish we had learned sooner and anything else you might think to ask us! Cheers! Andr and Anders

  • TFC is a classic base-building RTS inspired by the struggles of growth, advancement, and conquest in the cradle of civilization. Establish your village near fertile lands, and balance your food surplus against the size of your civilian and military might, as you build your village.

    Food is responsible for more than just feeding your troops. It determines the rate your population grows, and how quickly you can gain Knowledge Points. Keeping your village fed will ensure your prosperous expansion, but allowing your farms to be compromised can bring even the strongest economies to their knees.

    Inspired by the real history of the Near East Bronze Age era, TFC utilizes classic RTS elements while offering a unique perspective for the genre. Taking technological limitations and advancements into account, players will need to carefully consider how to spend their precious Knowledge Points, as they explore the Village Improvements that are designed to enable players to quickly counter an opponent’s strategy.

    Strategic Options From The Beginning



    Heavily inspired by the giants of the genre, TFC looks to expand on the mechanics of its contemporaries in interesting ways, giving players multiple strategic actions to explore from the very beginning of a match. There are multiple paths to victory, and players can quickly adapt their strategy to respond to enemy actions. How well players leverage this freedom will determine whether they experience glorious victory, or crushing defeat.

    Consequential Fertility Mechanic



    Food is the foundation of every successful village. Locate fertile ground and build your village around it to ensure that there is enough to sustain your growing population. Balancing your food surplus against your villagers and growing military is important, and protecting your farms is critical if you want to keep your village alive. Likewise there’s no better way to demoralize your opponents’ populations than by destroying their farms, and decimating their economy.

    Advance Your Village



    Increase the strength of your village as you explore Village Improvements. TFC features a collection of powerful improvements that allow commanders to spend points to quickly react to their enemy’s advancements, or perhaps create a window of opportunity to strike. With various ways to boost your economy and military, your strategic options are always clear to understand, and easy to implement.

    Play Online With Up To 4 Players



    An AI can be quite the challenge, but nothing can replace a real player. Available at launch, battle it out with up to three other commanders in order to prove who is the best at managing their village, army and food supplies. Challenge your friends or complete strangers, and visit our Discord to find new rivals. May the most prosperous village win, or perhaps the smarter commander? Everything is in your hands!
