Well, it doesn't look like anyone else will contribute. Maybe I'll try to get to 70, to get one of the gods in. I'll let you know how this goes. Neonivek, would you be interested in contributing to this 'project'?

[Scelly9]

I will, once I get back from this convention.

[Fniff]

I will once this credit card gets some money on it.

I am trying to get a job so I can donate myself... but I won't be able to for a while.

Even then my goal was mostly for myself.

Though EagleV it seems like you have two more people who may be able to contribute to your "Bring Attnam to Cult" goal.

I just tossed in 70. surprised by the number of people forking over 100, and who the hell donated 500?

Yeah, thanks for the support anyway. Scelly9 and Fniff, just for clarity, you were talking about the Attnam/IVAN donation as opposed to simply donating to cult on your own, right?

[Fniff]

Actually, no. I was actually just saying that I was going to donate on my own. But I could help, if you like. I decided to change my donation to 15, anyway.

[EagleV]

No, no, you should donate on your own if that was your plan, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

[melkorp]

Just Kickstarted this.  Congats, Lord Dullard: I'm super pleased this project's found the support it deserves to ascend to the next level, can't wait for alpha.

I just watched the construction preview vid, that looks awesome so far. Is that GUI written in Python? It looks petty snappy.

Will you be able to do things like build a castle and set troops to man it while you go off adventuring? And will it be able to be attacked while you're away?

[Lord Dullard]

Yes to everything.

[Neonivek]

Since you are splitting up magic and religion/spirituality, does that mean dealing with gods and spirits and getting their boons uses an entirely seperate system from magic or is there an intersection point? (Ignoring gods and spirits of magic... who are always the exception)

Actually given that this is about the awakened old gods it sort of makes me wonder if this will deal with some Lovecraftian magic where the gods themselves created spells done by chanting their names. Magic can be confusing.

[Clownmite]

Yes to everything.

Cool. Will other AI people also "use" the building system and construct things outside of cities? I know programming intelligent use of these things would be very difficult but it would be nice to see beings other than the player use this.

Also, the cloud shadows/reflections written in python? I'm impressed with how smoothly everything seems to run.

[Lord Dullard]

For the most part gods/spirits use an entirely separate system of magic, 'magic' being the more science-like ability to tap magical energies, whereas gods and spirits will be connected to more of an abstract, spiritual set of abilities.

The cloud shadows/reflections are indeed written in Python. It actually looks much smoother when I'm not running FRAPS, which detests Cult with a passion on fullscreen. Things will eventually be built by the AI, and certainly outside of cities, though it'll take time to get to that point.

Oh, you've got a thread here. Didn't see that.

So what's the custom tileset for the stretch goal going to be able to do? It seems like you can make some pretty good pictures with what you're working with currently, but what can't you do now that you're going to do with the tileset?
