Realm Building Prototype

Another project is a prototype of a realm building game like Civilization or Total War. The prototype concentrates on the map editor.


I choose hexmaps, because I like the way they look and I already used square maps with the roguelikes.


Features of the prototype:

  • paint terrain types
  • place roads and cities
  • define realms(red border)
  • rotat- and zoomable 3d camera

Lessons learned:

  • don't use 3d cameras for 2d maps
  • hexmaps are great for realm maps

Another map style.
