Howdy! Hope everyone is doing well. We've had a lot more players come onboard the last few weeks--welcome to community! A lot of work went into this update and we are really proud of the progress made. The main new feature is an Overworld event system. I think the game is a lot richer now. The world feels more fleshed out and Overworld travel is a more interesting part of the game. Changelog: - Added a robust system for random Overworld events! The system is quite flexible and has broad functionality. Going forward the task of adding new events will be fairly painless, with a lot of room for variety. Events come in two main flavors. First are minor events, these will show up in the Captain's Log. Second are major events which will have a pop up in their own window. Often these involve a decision the player will make--for example: toast the Poptart or eat it cold. The choice is yours! But honestly, what kind of monster would eat it cold... - Added TONS of new events to the new system! These are crammed full of lore. While events are typically self contained, we've tried to tell stories through events that shed light on the main characters as well as the broader game-world. Events can be a great way to get loot and will make travel from town to town a little more interesting. - Various UI improvements. - Fixed numerous minor bugs/issues. Thanks for all the support! We're very grateful for all the feedback and reviews--your suggestions and input are always greatly appreciated! Please contact us anytime at support@iqsoup.com or on Twitter @iqsoup.

- Age of Grit [Linux] [3.25 G]
In Age of Grit you play the captain of an old, beat-up, steam-powered airship. You and your crew adventure across a vast, cowboy-themed, steampunk world simply known as "The West." You're looking for whatever work you can find--bounty hunting, smuggling contraband, running guns...maybe even a little train robbery if yer so inclined. 'Bout anything to pay the bills, keep the guns loaded, the boiler stoked, and keep your ship in the sky!
Travel from one Wild West town to the next, meeting interesting characters. A few might have a job to offer or cargo for you to haul. Others might be fixin' to just shoot you where you stand. At its core, Age of Grit is about the people you meet, what story they have to tell, and how you choose to interact with them.
When trouble comes, you'll battle enemy airships using a deeply strategic, turn-based combat system. Far from a button masher, AOG will require careful thought to achieve each victory. A heavy cannon might do well against a slow moving, heavily armored enemy, but perhaps a long-gun will be more effective when gunning down a more agile opponent. A machine gun might be powerful at first, but as the barrel overheats it's effectiveness will diminish. With clever strategy, a weaker ship can typically bring down a much stronger foe.
You can buy better machinery from one of The West's many shops and dealers, or you might be able to salvage better parts from the wreckage of a vanquished enemy's ship. As you improve your airship you’ll be able to take on bigger and more powerful foes and, in so doing, spread your fame across The West!
