Adding Windowed mode support

Hello everyone, Here is a small patch that add windowed mode support, in windowed mode you can resize the window to the size you want and the game should remember the position and size of the window. This has been added because the game may be hard to play on extra wide screen.

First day patch

Hello everyone, Sorry for the inconvenience but an early patch is already live. There was an issue when losing the survival mode. Your score is supposed to be only computed when winning the survival mode. Therefore the score is not shown anymore when losing. A score of 12 was also awarded when starting the tutorial, that is not the case anymore.

The demo is out!

Hello, and happy new year everyone!


It has been a year since I started working on Fair and Square and now it is time to tell you that the beta is out and I need your help to gather feedback! You can check the trailer here : https://youtu.be/M5i7gTcFSHs

What is Fair and Square ?


Fair and Square is a real time rts trying to reproduce the responsiveness of Starcraft 2. Hopefully your army won't die as fast as in Starcraft 2 though.

What will be in the game?


It will feature around 10 missions, a survival mode (all that available in co-op mode) and a pvp mode (no automatic matchmaking for now, its addition will depend on the traction that the game gets during the demo). I also hope to integrate the editor I am using internally but cannot promise anything for now.

What is different in Fair and Square ?


Dynamic faction


Fair and Square is a dynamic and responsive classical RTS BUT you build your faction during the game. Your units are simple shaped powerful beings that can be empowered by runes. Each rune has three tiers and gives you special bonuses and/or units.

Anchors


You unlock runes during the game by building special "anchors'' (more to come in the lore about them) on specific points on the map. Everytime you build an anchor you get to choose between three options of rune.

PvP


To mitigate the randomness in PvP you draft runes at the beginning of the game and end up picking three of them which means that each roll is the same. You just get to pick the one you need at that point of the game. in PvP you will only be able to unlock 6 runes which means you won't be able to max all three runes. You need to plan accordingly.

What is in the demo for now?


Right now there are 4 runes available, there should be 5 in the demo release in early february and 6 in the full game. Why not more ? Because I would rather have 6 interesting runes than 20 bad ones and the existing one will need your feedback to be improved until release!

What to do with all this?


Well if you are curious jump in the demo (or beta), it is free! And give as much feedback as possible in the google form link in the game. But most of all have fun with it! I am looking for some players to try the duel mode in 1v1 if you want, do not hesitate to join the discord to find players there will be a dedicated channel. Wishlisting of course helps a lot.

When does the complete game release?


It should release by Q2 2024. I am aiming for a spring release. I cannot be more specific for now sadly.

  • Welcome here! here is a place composed only of simple shapes. Those shapes are the vessel of powerful beings and they are their only way to interract with the physical world.
    They all aspire to reach "there", where all shapes and forms exists. However gatekeepers prevent shapes from here to access it to avoid mayhem out "there".

    They used to live in peace, waiting for their time to cross the gate and reach the splendid world out "there". But it has been a very long time since any one has been able to accomplish the ritual to "there". It is even said that the gatekeepers have forgotten the ritual itself. More and more shapes now wants to get rid of the ritual to get to a better place. First came vocal protestation but since those stayed ignored it quickly turned into war. Shapes wanting to get "there" rush in huge numbers to the gate while the gatekeepers try as mush as they can to prevent them.

    But one day a simple square arrives here. The chosen one. A square that is coming back from "there" to bring back balance here.


    Anchors


    The gate is not stable by itself. To keep it stable you need to anchor it here. One need to build anchors on dedicated anchor spots that can be found on the map. When a new anchor is built it increase the gate stability and also unlocks a new runic ascend.

    Runic ascends


    In Fair and Square there are multiple runic ascends which unlock some unique upgrades and units. Each ascend has three tiers and the bonuses become more and more powerful when you progress into tiers.

    Randomized runes


    In story mode the runes you obtain when anchoring the gate are randomized. Try a new combination every run.





    Fair and Square is a classical fast paced real time strategy game where you build your base and you control every workers and production buildings closely.








    In story mode


    Defend the gate by yourself or with a friend from randomly generated waves that become tougher and tougher.

    Expand your base to keep the gate stable and unlock new runic ascends or bonuses.

    In versus mode




    Chose 3 among 6 runic ascends to define you strategy. Each runic ascend will give access unique bonus and/or units. Find the best combination to out smart your opponent and climb the ladder versus other players.
