This might look like the standard map to you, but for me it is a big milestone. This is the first time a village was saved and re-loaded correctly.
This is not a complete save, yet. Right now it stores which buildings are there (built or demolished, etc.) and in which condition they are. I still need to add tasks peasants are assigned to, the growth status of fields, animal pens etc. So while there is quite a distance to go, this was the most difficult part. It seems to easy, but to track buildings where players can freely place and demolish them is quite tricky. After all kinds of issues (starting buildings duplicated, or the whole village loading empty) I've finally done it. The rest is relatively simple, as it is simply restoring state to existing objects. I just need to store how much eggs are in the chicken pen, etc. That is a bit of work, but not complicated anymore. So, fairly soon we will have saving and loading of games !

Black Forest is a turn-based multiplayer game about cooperation and betrayl. A strategy, resource-management game about survival. It is set in the forest of the same name in medieval Germany. It is a casual game, meaning that you will spend anywhere from a few minutes to maybe half an hour on it per day.

In the game, each player controls one family in a village that is located deep in the forest. Everyone tries to survive the wolves, bears and worse that come at night. Plant and harvest, gather and build, cooperate and betray. Survive as a community, but do not forget about yourself. Try to survive the coming winter to win the game. Or simply be the last survivor to gain a personal victory.

The core element of the game is cooperation and its limits. At some point, you have to think of yourself first. If your community is strong, others will help you. But the forest will sooner or later overwhelm you all - when will cooperation break down? Will people betray openly, or trick? Is that proposal a trick maybe, or really the best? What role will common ground play? Does the village provide shelter for those who lost their homes? Do you share resources or keep them private? All of these and many other questions will be asked and answered in every game.
