Im old enough to of got that joke instantly 😬

Quill, that musical dad joke was AWESOME!

that joke!!! Awesome stuff

yikes this looks terrible

I feel there are 3 phases in the game. (1) The early part, as played here. (2) When trading companies are researched and built, it boosts the economy a lot! -> Often leading to an economic victory, which is the reason why I turn the economic victory option off at game creation, as it often leads to a "game over" so early the game has barely started. (3) When perfect negotiations are researched, as now advanced treaties can be made with others. Sadly things are poorly balanced in many places. Example 23:58 "Bribe" is the worst choice, as "Traitor's Reach" is an isolated system with only one planet in it, you are better off without it! "Locate" is only marginally interesting as "Daily Slogan" gives 20% more growth for outposts. "Intimidate" is the best option as "Punisher Drives" gives +10% damage on your ships, for the rest of the game!!! --- A little trick I figured out to control what population to grow -> When the population on a planet is about to grow, you can see what kind of population it will become, when you can schedule population units to be sent off the planet (Depending on how much research is done in the economy quadrant.). If you do not want them to grow, you schedule them to be sent elsewhere, which causes the kind of population to grow to change to another of those still on the planet, and then you cancel the sending of population units (Put them back on the planet.). --- When you have perfect negotiations, there is a trick when making deals: If they are willing to... say... Pay 40% of their Blue cap mold for what you offer them, it tells you that you can get them to pay 40% of almost all the other resources they have as well! (I think that is poor game design... But... That is the way the game is.)

I love it how this game has a 'pacifist' option by just torturing the enemy into joining your side and that way expanding your army. I used that strategy as soon as it was available in this game.

This game was really good when I tried it out, and it was super early Cheers for the dev for giving it so much passion.

I love Endless Space 2. It's immersive, the art of gorgeous

UP! it's a movie 🎈

Dev here, thank you for playing and showing off the demo! I'm currently working on Demo v2, fixing all the issues, and adding some more stuff. Will be up again for the Next Fest!

I think it's called Panzer Marshal now, for anyone trying to find it.

1:57 I think you might need new glasses. It doesn’t say OF it says TO 🙄

Not toooo bad. It's worth a look at when it releases.

Yeah there is NO DEMO available for this one. I wish there were it looks like a fun game.

Your jokes just get worse and worse lol🤣

Ahhhh... The 'Rummaging Around The World' genre. Love those style of games. /for the algorithm Thanks for the vid Nook. Loving the content.

the game needs more content... there is not much "balrum" to play lol im great

In germany when you need bigger pants you ask for...

Happy Bday! Stellar Settlers is a nice little cozy colony sim game. Its nice to see your colony grow slowly and steady. The graphics also look amazing and I love the simplistic UI.

Looks like a Divine Divinity 2 clone.

Members only on a video posted by you today? Forced subscription? Man I love your content..but cannot be blackmailed to see KZbin content..UNSUBSCRIBED.

Ah Ha !! this game will revive my childhood happiness like stronghold and Knight&Merchant :)) Hoorayy !!

Graphics are really good and old school. I like it.

almost sounds like ballerium

We are in the age of the city builder aren't we? I'm a little worn out.

Oh hey another epic Balrum video!😊 Absolutely loved this one as well! 🤗Your journey to Barnabas was eventful to say the least! And that mantis fight with Backpack and Barnabas was truly epic!⚔

Finally, you covered an Open World Fantasy Sandbox RPG

Woot, thanks a lot for playing our game Nookrium! ❤

This looks fun.

eewww you touched poop!

Such a good classic Style Game, thx for the video Nook,

Watching footage of this game from other KZbinrs. What I'd love to see is a lot more variety of different weapons and abilities.

Thanks for the history on where you came up with your name. I had searched the interwebs for this knowledge. Great name.

Please, take a look on "Waikino Gold" by Pixel Barons! Is a very nice city miner tycoon that I found on itch.. maybe a video could push the dev to keep working on it. The graphics are very nostalgic

I mean, he's not wrong: a coffin WILL be the last thing you ever need.

Yes, play more of this game!

Get her a dishwasher for her Birthday...

oh no, you forgot to disable the terrible terrible hacking dlc! otherwise this game rules

happy bday future Nook. This is the go to channel for finding great games.

Human intro is a commercial from starship troopers haha

2:09:48 - You can click on the Free Camera button, then select either one of your ships, or one of the enemy's, and rotate the camera so you can see the other side. Then you can get a great view of the action and see what's going on. The cinematic Auto-Camera mode keeps switching between ships, and you never get a view of the overall battle.

2:08:55 - When you look at this screen, you'll notice the three rows of lines on each of your tactics cards. Each of these rows is a lane. At this timestamp, you only have enough ships for one lane, which is the middle lane shown in white, while the other two are greyed out. Each lane is divided into three parts, representing long, medium, and short range. The segment highlighted is the range your ships will try to stay in the longest if you choose that tactic. If you have short range weapons, such as autocannons, then you will greatly benefit from picking a card that races your ships straight into short range ASAP. On the other side of things, you can hover your cursor over each of the enemy ships to get a good idea of whether they are using long, short, or medium weapons. You can also see if they're using projectile or energy weapons. You can use that information to help you decide on a tactic as well. To simplify things, you can click on each of your tactics and see how full the circle is around your flotilla on the left. The tactic that fills it up the most is the best one for the current engagement. When you have enough ships for multiple lanes, then you will have two or three circles on the left; a flotilla for each lane. If you play enough to become accustomed, you can design your ships to align with specific tactics cards. While the battles are automatic, I've found it's very valuable to watch them and see how the ships react to the tactic you chose. Also, if you use torpedoes, you can only see how many of them are getting shot down by watching the battles. If two of your four torpedoes are getting shot down, then you're only doing half as much damage as the ship designer tells you.

Was the church bell tuned to a Papal C?

This game always felt a bit soulless. Endless Legend still seems to be the Amplitude sweet spot.

Do your cities persist in the world after you’re done with them like in DF
