Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game for Android, iOS, Windows and Mac

Hi guys,

I just want to know your opinions about a complete RTS (real-time strategy) game package, carefully designed for mobile devices to run on every platform, and also supports Windows and Mac. While there is a lot of wonderful TD (tower defense) and TB (turn based) strategy kits on AssetStore, there is a big gap for a real-time strategy kit. So I want to kindly ask for your opinions on this, whether this is a goood idea to have such kits on AssetStore.

Please take a look at these shots taken from the title "Modern Conflict" by Gaijin Entertainment for example:

This is a very popular (and in my opinion, very addictive) real-time strategy game which has been mastered for mobile devices. While this is just an offline game, with a campaign and an endless mode, It has a wonderful download rate of +1.000.000, with a score of 4.6 on GooglePlay. As the game is completely free, it uses in-game purchase and relies on advertisements and you can easily figure how much money it can generate daily by that amount of download and player base.

So as I've stated before, do you think this is a good idea to have a complete real-time strategy kit on AssetStore, beside all the other turn-based and tower-defense kits?

Many Thanks.

good but I think it's hard to do something flexible for user to customize. If you can do it, great!

 

That's correct. But most of the games today have similar gameplay mechanics. It's just the small details, tweaks and options which makes a game a hit and leaves many buried down deep.

For the RTS genre, it's a different story, because it's not as popular as FPS genre, but also there is not a lot of competition, so an intuitive and fun gameplay can get the title to be noticed. Many have tried to port games like C&C to mobile devices, but to no avail, and it's mostly because it's not easy to do such level of micro-management with just a finger. But what "Modern Conflict" did with it's awesome one-touch approach, was just amazing. The high number of download and total score says it all.

I have no idea if AssetStore is a good place to promote a complete RTS project and if there is enough interested buyers, so providing such solution could make sense.

Anyway, I really appreciate your comment, imtrobin

 

More tools are alwasy better, the issue with this is how you will handle AI etc

Will it use some standard like RAIN or other path finding or a custom solution ?

 

Hi nasos,

The kit uses a complicated custom solution for handling the AI. Please kindly test MC I introduced earlier. Mine works the same, with the additional ability to engage with other AI's simultaneously.

Thanks.

Unfortunately I'm still undecided to release this game as a kit. But I certainly will let you know if I came to any conclusion.
