Nick Thomadis Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 It has been a while since our last news. There has been a slight delay with our release schedule but we still work hard on the game and we are almost ready to start sharing beta keys for our limited Steam version and of course to deliver the Early Access edition. Please read below our official statement about current status. Thanks again for your support. A new blog post will follow with video and images explanations. Stay alert! Hello everyone - thanks for your patience and support.We really appreciate it and are extremely honored to be making this game for you.Here is an update on what's going on. We are fixing some AI and gameplay bugs for the final build that will be submitted for Steam approval within next week or two. It is an Early Access edition - meaning there will be some things that don't yet work as intended. The goal for this edition is to gather your feedback on the gameplay, balance and AI, + find bugs that we could not find ourselves. While we are getting the Valve approval we will invite up to 30-50 volunteer testers on our forums to try the limited version of the game in order to quickly check for the obvious flaws. 2 scenarios will be given out to players - first engagement of the Gettysburg battle and the battle for Devils Den. Once Steam grants the approval, we will finalize the store page and open up Early Access sales. We cannot yet say exactly when it will happen as we dont know how long the approval will take. Over the course of the early access (30-40 days) we will work with you on getting the game tuned and improved and start adding the multiplayer component. In the next 4-5 days we will start posting regularly on the final product vision: tactics, ai, control and other gameplay elements. Price for the Early access edition will be 10 US Dollars. Price might go higher for the release version.After majority of feedback and multiplayer gets into the game the release version will come out. 19/2/2014 "We got the greenlight" Ultimate General: Gettysburg has been greenlit! Read the news! Old message at the start of campaign Finally we have begun our campaign for Steam Greenlight!With your support we will soon be able to offer the game in Steam Early Access.

Crowgasm Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Just got my 4 kids, all of whom have separate Steam accounts, to vote for this. Somewhat Nixonian in feel since none of them are interested but that's their loss, and they're not grounded now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowgasm Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 If it's formally greenlit, as it were, what's the next step? My wallet is positively throbbing, and not because of my wife. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowgasm Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I noticed in the blurb, as I re-read, that this will also be available for tablets. Hoping the PC version will be different, given the limitations of tablets. Any more detail on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
