Castle Battles (tuxdb.com)

Castle Battles streamlines the mechanics of classic, top-down strategy to create a fast paced style of gameplay like no other. Expand your empire by building castles near bountiful resources, collect gold to amass outlandish armies, and swarm your enemies in 40 unique levels.

Explore the illustrated world of “The Great Tapestry” through four story-rich campaigns: Fight to reclaim your lost homeland as Les Moustachiers. Laugh maniacally as The Clearly Evil Empire. Discover the astral mysteries of The Purperilous. And finally, set out on a hero’s journey as The Order of Awesome to stop the narrative from unravelling.

No soulless micro-transactions to help you here! Classic 4X style mechanics are condensed to their strategic core, meaning action packed matches are measured in minutes rather than hours. Thousands of troops can be in action at a time leading to all out swarm warfare.

Enjoy the melding of medieval melodies to the pulse of electronica in the Original Soundtrack by Ex-Static: https://xstatic.bandcamp.com/album/the-original-castle-battles-soundtrack

It’s time to play… Castle Battles

Dev updates:
We've heard a lot of fantastic ideas and feedback from the community. These comments were often pared with the question, "Are you planning on doing anything else with the game?" Our response has generally been "we want to, but early sales will have to justify it."

Well good news! Because of your remarkable support our audience has steadily grown! Particularly this has been the case on Google Play's marketplace as their review algorithm has continued to feature us in response to positive community ratings. Turns out we weren't kidding when we said every voice counts!

What does this mean?

Short term: A patch is coming in the next few weeks to enhance some basic ui and visual elements. It won't be multiplayer or more story as we want to build on our strong mechanical foundation for future projects first. We're not saying it will never happen (we are looking for ways), but Multiplayer is a massive undertaking and we don't have access to those resources... yet.

Long term: We're chuck full of ideas for what comes next, but we don't want to get ahead of ourselves and start a runaway hype train riddled with broken promises. We will keep you updated as our many ideas solidify into something we are confident is press worthy. Feel free to chime in as we reveal more!

TLDR; Things are starting to go well at Light Arc, so keep sharing the good word of Castle Battles with your friends!
