It's been over 7 years since we started development on TFC: The Fertile Crescent!
However, in actuality, this is a game that has been 20 years in the making.
André has been dreaming of making an RTS for the majority of his life, and it has all resulted in this moment, which we are excited to share with you all!
After many false starts and attempts at making an RTS that brings new ideas to the RTS space, 7 years ago a set of different mechanics and systems finally presented themselves to André. Soon after, I met André and was super excited to jump on to help out in any way I could. As a big, but very different type of RTS fan, it was a dream to contribute to TFC.
With André's sense of numbers, balancing and symbiotic game mechanics, and my more casual approach to RTS games, we truly believe that we have made something special.
TFC brings new ideas to a genre that in recent years has seen a bit of a revival, and we are exalted to be part of what is hopefully a long and healthy wave of quality RTS games for anyone who wants to check them out!
Come join us on the stream, where we'll talk more in-depth about the trials and tribulations of the development of TFC, what we have learned, what we wish we had learned sooner and anything else you might think to ask us!
Cheers!
André and Anders
