Keep the Keep v1.7.1 is out: AI-driven Campaign Levels and AI improvements!

Good Friday, fellow Keepers! This week we keep our past promises: as you can remember from the last update, we planned to split important story-driving, learning levels from the ones that will simply propose an interesting challenge to solve for the people willing to try. Here's the new campaign map update:
As you can see, from now on the main campaign line will be reasonably straightforward and have a very reasonable difficulty (corresponding to received feedback from the players), while the optional campaign branches will sometimes be really, really challenging (just make sure to check out those towers and castles standing aside).
Besides 9 extra levels that we have developed for you to try, there were quite a few tutorial and AI bugfixes, related to the tower expansion, target AI prioritisation and Barracks usage. Yes, indeed, the humble Barracks became better in the hands of our still rather dumb AI, which might surprise you in the later levels ;) As the new AI levels introduced aren't yet covering the whole Campaign level range, you should surely expect more to come in the following weeks. Meanwhile, as we work on the new maps, we will also make sure the AI is able to properly handle the complex Tower types like Builder and Repair. So, till then, enjoy the weekend! (and hopefully, the new levels, we are quite sure you'll like them) Nebulate.me team

A turn-based multiplayer strategy with puzzle elements that looks just like a tower defence game, but really, really isn't.

Experience novel gameplay

While it's hard to describe a concrete genre for Keep the Keep, one can imagine Chess mixed with Netstorm set in a quasi-medieval setting.

Build a new Tower every turn to try and outmanoeuvre your opponent on a constantly evolving battlefield.

Choose your own playstyle

There are many different kinds of towers available for you to select, made to allow you full combat flexibility.
Would you like to be extremely aggressive, attacking your opponent directly as soon as the opportunity presents itself?
Would you prefer to build an impenetrable self-restoring defence?
Would you set up some long-spanning plans to destroy the opponent's base with your loyal soldiers?
Up to you to decide!

Outsmart thy Opponent

The towers you pick before the battle are kept in secret until built on the field.
The turns are done simultaneously, so every turn brings an opportunity to force your opponent to guess what kind of tower are you going to build this time.
This allows for plenty of unpleasant surprises and sudden ambushes. Is this work-under-construction a vicious attack or a bluff?
Should I expect a risky move from my opponent or assume he's as afraid of me as I am of him?
Psychological warfare plays a big role in Keep the Keep!
