Castle Story - Voxel-based Creative RTS

[Lotheron]

Haven't seen anyone talk about this game and it looks pretty neat. Obvious relation to minecraft (building, mining, etc), but with a bit more RTS elements. Currently close to a releasable (albeit beta) state and 400+% funded on kickstarter.

Instead of completing the work yourself, "Bricktrons" do the heavy lifting and building your castle brick by brick. There is combat (again the Bricktrons) and defend the castle type elements as well. Multiplayer is planned as well.

I'm hoping that the money from kickstarter allows the devs to really give this game a good chance to stand out.

I saw this yesterday advertised somewhere. It actually sounds really interesting to me because I love the idea of building and defending fortresses.

ive been looking forward to this for months. i was excited the kickstarter did so well.

Wonder if I should do 15..or 25..hmmm..Love the idea of kickstarter..

My 10 dollar minecraft investment was well spent.

 

[Soccerman06]

Love the idea, hope theres some kind of giant islands and baddies for end game. Hopefully theres some sort of story that takes awhile to complete

Looks pretty interesting and different for sure. I'd consider giving them $10 or something like that.

Had the same dilemma, went ahead and gave them 25. As others have said, i love the idea and the overall concept is fresh even though it obviousness reuses elements from other games.

Considering the work they've done with the small team they had in two years, I'm thinking with a bigger budget (which they will obviously now have), what they come up with should be pretty good.

I forgot about this game! Looks awesome; I love the physics when they're blowing stuff up.

Looks very cool, my kid would like this too. In for $25.

Yeah, I hope they make it a bit smoother, the framedrop was kind of dramatic. I'm sure it's just cause it was an earlier build.

anybody else paid for this yet?

I know this was released a few days ago, but some of you guys probably haven't seen it yet. New Demonstration video, looking good so far
