I Added More Units to My Medieval Fantasy Game (Indie Game Devlog)

[@Bud8013]

Congratulations on the continued development on your game. Maybe when creating the new scenarios, maybe have a hardcore scenarios like the game Rimworld does with it's Naked Burtality scenario, where you start with absolute zero items. Maybe a escaped slave or castaway traveler. Having scenarios for each of the factions and some alternative playstyles could create interesting stories for players.

[@madcontrollerx263]

Oooh, this sounds very interesting? Perhaps, even a civilian loadout? Wherein you cant fight but rise up to become a merchant and create a personal army.

[@bigbirdy1052]

This would be so cool!

[@and3rs]

Thanks! Yeah, there will definitely be more scenarios once I've added features to the game, like trading etc.

You should add a Gladiator Revolt later on in the “Aspiring Gladiator” Scenario. Some sort of Spartacus revolt, and conquer the map for either yourself, or the people!

[@BOFRDASLEEPER]

​@@whyyoulooklikethat5748 nah fam, I work for ME

[@Charlie_Chaplin1977]

I love the mount and blade feel of the game with a free flow of exploration would be nice to make NPC troops form ranks like for example the shield warriors would be front and be supported by spear men

[@TheRealKamel]

I downloaded the game around a month ago, I really loved it and hurried to reviewing it and gave it 5 starson Google Play, I finished Gladihoppers, Spartacus War, 99 High score in arcade mode, I really loved it, Plus I play Warband ALOT, So this mix is GOLD to me, After I found out about this Channel, I now love the game even more! Thank you very much for releasing this MASTERPIECE!! ❤❤

[@9Johnson]

This is incredible I really love the concept of the factions and how the 30 years based balanced them out, but I was wondering if time passes like that could characters start families since so much time passes and when they die lose some of their stats but can continue as a weaker version of themselves as their child?

[@and3rs]

That's kind of the logical progression for a game like this yes... In the future I'd like to have some sort of "aging" mechanic, don't know exactly how at the moment

[@ZyreenAcer]

Suggestions and ideas: 1.) Soldier/recruit customization: When you become a king or have a major city, you can customize your recruits attire, weapons, armor, etc,(just like steel and flesh 2). 2.) Marriage: Because of the new genders. 3.)Other races: Dwarfs,orcs,elves,etc, each having their own unique quirks, and RACISM!!! DWARFS DON'T LIKE TREE PEOPLE. 4.)Bigger map 5.) Development of Npc's: Npc's now have the ability to grow.(This is just a idea that my brain pop up). 6.) Something in a game called steel and flesh: I ran out of ideas. Gladihoopers is my childhood, thank you for making this game that I have long awaited. These are just my suggestions and ideas, you don't have to do these things in this game if it is not fit for it. Blades of deceron has potential, thanks for making it, thank you. I'll comment on your videos if there are bugs in this game. Stay safe. -just a person the internet

[@MeWhenTheWhen.]

as a steel and flesh 2 player, the first idea would make me pretty happy too. I wouldnt spent over an hour customizing each troop to how i liked it, and giving different troop types different styles and armor types (ranged would have either light or medium, swordsmen heavy and spearmen either heavy or medium, cavalry always light or medium) also, since it has an autoaim I've always found myself becoming a horseback javellin thrower. It's just too strong, autoaim that instakills all low level troops and does high damage to even experts and elites while being uncatchable and all ranged troops miss you. Maybe he could find a way to implement javellins? Sort of like how they work in gladihoppers, perhaps.

[@ARStudios2000]

Those first 3 seconds were enough to immediately sell me on what youre doing. I adore physics based games

[@and3rs]

Thank you so much :D

[@Ruku82]

This is a great game. M&B is one of my faves. Please make it where I can pay a few bucks so I don’t see ads. Keep up the great work.

[@CrimzonMoonz]

Yeah this is a good game, but I would prefer if the brutality was on par with gladihoppers, XD more blood

[@DonVendo-u4z]

Hello! To enhance your game and generate revenue, consider adding features like troop and map customization. Players could personalize their troops or design custom maps, with these features accessible through microtransactions. This way, the core game remains free, while players have the option to pay for additional creative tools.

[@oddy.mhlabawonke8182]

Also plays can rule the world quickly, I did that in like 3/4 hours but now since there is an update, I will download it again.

[@and3rs]

It might be more difficult now... But there's still lots of work to be done to make this game fun

[@rylandavis2583]

Loving this game man! Great work, can’t wait to see what future updates bring!

[@AdemDierks]

I usually don‘t Write comments under youtube videos, but i downloaded your game yesterday. It‘s so refreshing to find a game in the appstore which isn‘t destructed by pay to win or ads. Bravo the game is as fun to me as your Gladiator game, but way more creative!👌🏽

[@deusetveritas]

A Greek/Thracian empire A Viking faction, Middle Eastern faction. European faction, Fauns...i like that ✌️😎. Hoping to see more content similar to m&b or Battlebrothers

[@mr.l4770]

Dude, this is an awesome game so far. I found it through your other game gladihoppers, and DANG it's fun. And Low-key, as a musician in university studying to be a videogame composer, this game makes me want to write different variations of the theme based on location (desert, forest, plains, near the ocean). Keep up the amazing work man. You're really inspiring :]

[@charlesaether237]

I just downloaded the game right now, I was contemplating on whether to wait for more updates, but I wanted to try It now, seeing the devlogs already got me hyped especially since I played gladihoppers, so I know I'll enjoy this one, Keep up the good work, you have my full support!

[@and3rs]

Thank you so much! And yeah I was kind of forced to release the game, but I still have a huge todo list of things to add, so development will continue for years

[@Rubdump]

This instantly hooks me in, I'm really biased towards Gladihoppers, and just having a much more polished AND realistic version is ABSOLUTELY AMAZINGG!!! Keep it up pal.

[@josephyu270]

At first I thought this was a Gladihoppers inspired game, then a search later to find out this guy is the developer of Gladihoppers and is making a new game. Definitely installing ite

[@robertevans352]

I genuinely love this game especially because of gladihoppers to your games are amazing

[@captainkaid2808]

I suggest you add a amputation where enemies like if they cut their arms they will be no longer to hold a sword or shield, but they can kick, if they cut their legs they will no longer jump but they can crawl and still fight. Anyways i really like your game to be honest, a unique playstyle with a conquering the whole region. I hope your game will be known to many soon ! gooodluck brother

[@gameplode7397]

I can’t believe it’s actually released! Thank you so much for pouring your heart into this game

[@and3rs]

Thank you :D

[@_god_of_devilgaming7455]

I was first introduced to Gladihoppers last month and was immediately hooked it is a masterpiece! i really loved that game but there isnt anything more to do after you finish all the spartacus rebellion and other game modes and right on time i found this game. This game is sooo addictive and fun and there is alot to do in this. This feels like a sequel to gladihoppers with more advanced and improved physics and gameplay quality with quests and conquering factions and everything i just LOVE ITTT!!❤❤ Very fun game i hope you do more like in the future. This will be forever be some of best games i played

[@red_k4443]

Dude this is great good job For suggestions I think there are three things that should be there 1-set NPCs and maybe even romance available NPCs 2-stats and/or skill tree 3-magic

[@and3rs]

1) yes, gonna be added, 2) I'm gonna revamp the skills system, I should have made it better from the beginning but I got lazy and now it doesn't make any sense, 3) maybe in the future there will be some very limited magic in the game (lore wise magic users have been hunted to almost to extinction and people generally don't know magic exists)

[@red_k4443]

@and3rs you know the fact that you actually care about every feedback is what makes you a great game dev

[@joaocarneiro9336]

I would like more races like orcs , dwarfs , dragonborn , and maybe some ligth magic .Pls Gladihopers was my favourite game wen i was a kid

I like this early access game. Its really nice and VERY addicting. To bad my phone freaking burns up and my battery goes to hell when playing. But thats a me problem. Good job! :)

[@solevic.]

Hello Anders! i've played your Gladihoppers game in 2019 (left in 2021, came back in 2024), found your KZbin account, found Blades of Deceron, and the things ive seen that i think, in my opinion could be changed,like the max level being 20 (i couldnt level up some of my skills, some i never even touched), one function i would like you to add is the ability to make a faction be disbanded (by conquering all their cities or something, yet they can also start a rebellion which makes a small group of them attempt an attack on one of their cities to retake it after a while), because everytime i conquer all of Azivinas cities they just conquer like 4 cities in less than 5 seconds 😂, great game though, this message will probably not be seen, but anyhow, Adiós!

[@محمدكيروان-م4ح]

It's an amazing game❤❤ and I hope you continue to develop it. I have an idea for you. You have to add powerful monsters where you can get missions to kill them. The game will become more exciting. You can put a hunter profession and a hunter association. Finally, there should be some kind of aging mechanism so that the game also becomes more realistic.❤❤❤

I absolutely love this game, I been playing this for 3 days now during my vacation in Japan. The first day I raged a lot because I didn't know how to fight as it was a little different than Gladihoppers. Second day I learnt to fight and how to get tons of money. And the third day (Today) I began taking over cities for Queen Serra and gained over 12k Coins.

[@JaxonLawrence-f3q]

I love Quick Battle. - In Retinue, add Clear All Units so I don't have to tap to clear. - Add Retreat in the pause menu, giving an option to make the left or right side turn around and run away with two choices, Left Right. - More units and factions. - Add big maps with a view that we can control left to right with swiping. - 10v10 and 25v25 is boring. Increase battle size.

A message from Saladin: Gladihoppers is a really amazing, balance and fun game. and concept of this game (mixing it with M&B) is COOL AS HELL. NGL i had major problems but I know most of them will be gone in updates, But I'm really happy that I can find the Dev himself on youtube😅😅🔥🔥🔥

Can you add system of refreshing in the trading settlements so they can change the stuff they sell every now and then so we can get access to better gear more often ?

[@catalinrud1560]

How kingdoms in this game could function is basically that Braryrian and Azivinia are kingdoms inclined on the economics while Valtihir works like a confederation of warrior(clans) which have the obligation of providing troops that are powerful but hard to make (their economic capabilities are low) and if they lose too much or have infighting in their land they might break into more states while the Elukhis go in a civil war if their king dies for any particular reason which temporarily dissolves the kingdom and the regions have became independent and start fighting themselves for who shall reunify the Elukhis and during the reunification all units from the said regions buff like even peasants get 400 health points making impossible for you or anyone else to touch the land but if you do manage to become their ruler by getting in kahoots with them you could try to centralise the Elukhis

[@restitutortristitiae6006]

It's finally out? LETS GOOOOOOOO

[@redpartist]

New Warband update looking great

[@MizukiAkiyama-0]

Content Suggestion: -A "Dark Soul-Like" boss fight that will give an unique armor and it belongs on the same faction as the Wanderers, it's name will be "Abaddon". Why I thought of this? Well, because there's a unit called Forlorn and heavy forlorn and Dark Souls 2 have an enemy called Forlorn. -Secret names like in Gladihoppers, for example: If you name your Character "Deceron" you'll gain the powerful "Blades of Deceron". -A new species called "Drake's", basically dragon humans, they cannot equip any armor at all because of their immense size but they got scales which is a natural armor and they are a LOT stronger than the other two species. Plus, they can evolve into an ARMAGEDDON DRAKE once they reached level twenty. Hope you consider and read my suggestions (: UwU

[@robertwildschwein7207]

I like the idea of a beastmen race that is physically stronger with more HP and faster but gets less armor slots to compensate(like Kenshi skeleton). Maybe beastmen only get chest and pants and maybe cape with no gloves, boots and helmets because of their animal atanomy. Early game, this would be more powerful because you have higher mobility and damage, but later on, when armor becomes more common, you will be very fragile compared to other high level units and have to utilize your increased speed and power to its fullest and try get hit as little as possible, so it would be a much more difficult playstyle. But a massive OP dragonman that gets even more massive and OP at LV 20 sounds like bit too much.

[@MizukiAkiyama-0]

@robertwildschwein7207 Well, maybe you're right. A beastmen race sounds better than my initial suggestion. But there is already one in the game, so I suggested the Drake's to increase diversity.

[@draconic007]

Good to see that gladiahoppers is still being updated, last time I played was back in 2023

[@and3rs]

Haha, this is Blades of Deceron... It's based on Gladihoppers, but it's not the same game

[@draconic007]

@and3rs yeah, I didn't realize that at first and I forgot to edit the comment cuz I fell asleep lol, Anyways keep up the good work, the game is very fun and unique compared to most gladiator games I see nowadays👍

[@johngammon6450]

Maybe having the bandit spawns increase proportionally to the size of the faction they are in could help with mitigating the snowball, as smaller, poor factions would have little value for looters but bigger factions would have more rebels from various issues and more prosperity to leech off of.

[@HavierMagay]

[@mrmason23]

Feedback; I just played the game, early on it was very fun when getting used to the combat and how-to-dos. I was conquering another kingdom and it was getting tedious due to the amount of money they have meaning they can infinitely spawn troops without end, the war was in a constant stalemate which made me demotivated to continue playing and there's not much else to do after due to me swimming in gold by selling the enemy's equipment. If I can suggest improvements, make a way to stop the npc factions to infinitely spawn units.

[@sandronecromancer]

I really love the concept but I feel like fighting in Gladihoppers was more intuitional (beaten every game with every weapon + the hidden boss after you refuse to retire). Also kicking can stunlock your opponent if you corner them
