Dynamic Building

Hi! I apologize for the long silence. I was working hard on Vertical Kingdom. And you know, I'm very bad at marketing, so thank you for staying here.

Right now I'm finishing the Sandbox mode and the Dynamic Building. I hope to show you a video of how the dynamic building works in the game soon. The idea is that you can build vertically and horizontally on certain buildings, and the building will change in appearance, giving the city a more organic view, I think you will love it! In fact, in my case, even knowing the tiles, I'm always surprised with the possible combinations of the buildings.

It has been a titanic work, because it required to draw a lot of tiles depending on different situations. And my goal is to allow different building combinations, for now we have the small brick house and the tower brick house, but at least the stone houses will have this option too and I hope to have time to add this feature to more buildings.

I will show you an image of my testing city in the sandbox mode. Some buildings are very ugly, but you can see the possible potential and the truly Vertical Kingdom.

I hope to prepare a video soon.

In the meantime, The pixel artist is working on a total redesign of the landscapes, and the musician is creating really nice tracks. Once I have the first landscape done I will show it here.

Thank you again for your patience!
