Hey everyone I made a dev diary for my upcoming grand strategy game Galactic Commander.
Galactic Commander is a sci-fi grand strategy RPG with a focus on economic mechanics.
Please check it out and give me some feedback, it would mean a lot to me at this point. I also go heavily into the technical details and the actual C++ code and game design processes I’m using so I guarantee you if you watch this you will learn all kinds of new things about Godot or game dev in general.
Looks like a great start. Perhaps ‘Commander’ is not the best word to use here. Sounds more like a ‘Galactic Tycoon’ to me!
I also love the “This isn’t working at the moment but never mind”. Lol. Just like my game!
I am interested to see what you do with the UI and especially the HUD. At the moment this could go in so many directions it is very early days it seems.
I look forward to seeing more.

Thanks for the kind words, definitely in the early days still you got that right. I’m still not so sure how I want to do that UI, probably with sharp sci-fi looking corners and accents all over. For the name I chose Commander because a lot of the game will (hopefully) be roleplaying as a star ship commander. So the idea is that YOU, the player, will be a Galactic Commander leading your ship. Hopefully in my next dev diary I’ll get more into the lore and backstory, I didn’t want to dig too deep on it yet since we are still fleshing out big parts of the main story : )
