Gladiator Guild Manager News

Huge thanks for all the support! We have reached the 100% of the goal and there are still 9 days left to go.



Also we gathered a lot of amazing feedback, and now understand much clearly what we should do with the game to make it into something we'll all really enjoy. I wrote about it on this Kickstarter update if you want to check out in more details: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/entertainment-forge/gladiator-guild-manager-epic-battle-simulator/posts/2942368

In short: We are now brainstorming how to improve game so that it feels more like a bigger management game with things happening in the guild, where you'd get more attached to your gladiators, have a lot of random things happening and to do. Championships still being the core of the game but not the only thing in the game. We'll soon put together a list of things that we want to change/update in the game and then we want to discuss all of those things with you guys in order to make best decisions possible.

Our Free Prologue Demo has been featured on the Steam front page for 6 days, shoulder to shoulder with some amazing big titles what's feels very surreal even for a Prologue game. So now that we know that you guys are very excited about this game, we feel more responsibility than ever to do the best job we possibly can and make this game rock!

If you still haven't tried our Prologue demo you can download it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1332470/Gladiator_Guild_Manager_Prologue/

After 20 months of development we finally reached a point where we had enough content and are able to show you guys the demo. Of course there are many more features to come but you can check out the concept and even help us steer the game development in the right direction with your feedback.

The new demo is coming along nicely. A lot of progress has been made from the previous version and here are some new things that we can show:

Core gameplay loop is now revolving around the map that you’ll be able to explore:



There are arenas to compete in. Rising through the ranks of each will open new parts of the map and unlock new arenas. Shops for fighters and items are now placed on map and by progressing through the game a new and different kinds of shops will become available.



We’re working now on adding quests that will appear around the map and we’re also planing on adding dungeons that will present a different kind of challenge. Getting as deep as you can, defeating all sorts of monstrosities and looting resources and items to help you grow your guild and team.

Another important update is the new guild building mechanic:



Buildings that you choose to build and how far you upgrade them will determine what sort of gladiators you can hire and how far you can develop them.

Guild buildings will cost various resources like wood, stone, metal or mana crystals. But you’ll also need to expand your territory and unlock new slots by defeating enemies in the new woods arena.



Also, we made a new Kickstarter page that you can follow if you wish to hear more or support us:
