ВСТУПЛЕНИЕ В КРЕАТИВНУЮ ИГРУ ПО СТРОИТЕЛЬСТВУ ПЕСОЧНИЦЫ:
Bulwark - это создание своей крепости и расширение ее до империи.
Я надеюсь, что вам понравятся мои попытки экспериментировать и развивать эту игру в нечто приятное и свежее.
Bulwark также продолжает развиваться с каждым обновлением, основываясь на ваших отзывах.
Так что положительные или отрицательные комментарии приветствуются. Если они направлены на помощь, то все они будут приняты с благодарностью, либо здесь, на форуме, либо в дружественном дискорде.
История:
Вы руководите последними остатками свободных людей на Урси, которым поручено построить новый дом. Прокладывайте свой путь в мир, башня за башней, стена за стеной, создавая скульптуры из грозных скал и опасных вод неумолимого ландшафта, который не желает быть прирученным.
Цели игры:
Создавайте фантастические поселения-крепости в океане. Прогресс прост: развивайте население различных фракций, и вы будете продвигаться по их соултрипам. Разблокируйте командиров и капитанов, которые могут работать на вас, открывайте новые корабли, юниты и способности.
Play Your Way:
Bulwark - исследуйте Великий Урси, строя свою великую цивилизацию. Собирайте ресурсы, прокладывайте торговые маршруты и заключайте союзы с другими фракциями, разбросанными по волнам, балансируя между переговорами и конфликтами, чтобы развивать свое поселение.
Freebuild - Наслаждайтесь уютным режимом «Freebuild Mode», лишенным конфликтов и проблем, присутствующих в стандартной игре. Вы можете создавать эскизы и экспериментировать, не нуждаясь в ресурсах, и строить без ограничений.
Total Conquest - Война пришла в Великий Урси. Вы начинаете воевать с каждой фракцией, дипломатия отключена, а частота и масштаб набегов увеличены. Теперь недостаточно просто строить - теперь нужно выживать.
Строительные ресурсы:
Дерево, камень и железо не хранятся и не подсчитываются, единственное, что имеет значение, - это расстояние, а не стоимость. Вы транспортируете ресурсы по сети башен, а также по торговым маршрутам через море. Башни и стены в радиусе действия ресурса могут быть улучшены и построены бесплатно, а те, что вне радиуса действия, - нет.
Сплинтеры :
Валюта, с помощью которой осуществляется дипломатия, создание армии, покупка новых локаций и уникальных зданий, существует отдельно от ресурсов, она работает на валюте под названием Splinters. Вы получаете их за счет роста населения, торговли с другими фракциями или в качестве награды за бои.
Вызов:
В игре вам предстоит создать и вырастить огромные крепости, зачастую не требующие особых затрат, кроме организации торговых путей для получения ресурсов. По мере роста вы можете приглашать население из других фракций, которое открывает уникальный контент из их «душевного дерева».
Но на Урси все ненавидят всех, и это может привести к войне или к появлению верных союзников, которые объединятся с вашей империей. У этой песочницы-конструктора есть последствия!

Great little city builder and exploration game. The steampunk aesthetic is charming and overall very enjoyable and relaxing game. Worth the price, but especially on sale. For me designing a cool city or fortress is fun.
A city builder that's hard to compare to others in the genre. Worth checking out if you want something more relaxed and not full of fiddly details 8/10
its very very good. the ux and setting up trade routes should be streamlined a bit
I didn't enjoy this game. I do like the artwork but there seems to be no point or challenge to the game (although I acknowledge it is a sandbox). Constantly clicking to add to your base is not an enjoyable game for me. There are no missions, very little advancement etc.
A very simple, accessible city sim that doesn't require a whole lot of micromanagement and moving buildings. The system of building structures across islands, and then blank spaces between the structures being filled in by small settlements all by itself is interesting, and it's fun to watch these steampunk cities build themselves. I'm also invested in the setting itself, which is also explored in the previous Falconeer game.
From playing the day it released and watching the updates come through,
I can easily recommend this to anyone who wants to play a good strategy game.
What I love about this game:
Frequent updates and previews.
The game has had no crashes or bugs on my end.
The building system is unique but in a good way.
The pace in-game isn't stressful.
Great game to just relax and build some incredible looking structures.
Great game, has an interesting 'spoke and hub' kind of way of building. It can be a bit wonky to get your buildings looking just right but outside of aesthetics it wont affect your city if half of the buildings are inside eachother.
Very unique procedural city builder with some light rts elements, set in a maritime steam punk-esque setting. I'm not 100% sure but it seems to be made by one dude, Tomas Sala, if that's the case, this is a pretty impressive game to pull off for one dev. He's pretty active too and working on some cool updates.
Low-Complaxity, cozy city builder.
Raising population of different factions is at times difficult to understand.
Very fun, casual free-form city builder. One of my favourite games to zone out and listen to podcasts or audiobooks while playing. The solo dev is very dedicated and is actively adding to the game still.
The building system is pretty unique and probably won't be for everyone. Definitely try the demo first before buying.
It's a blast. Very fun to build a sea empire.
Lovely little game!
The designs of the structures flow together really nicely, and the more you build the better the special buildings (commanders in-game) get, and you end up with a really cool fleet of ships, airships and other various small flying units.
The developer is super involved in the community. He pours his heart and soul into this.
Jump onto the bandwagon, I always replay when he makes an update as he always adds something really cool!
relaxing and fun, combat mechanic needs work but that's not why i play it, economy and resource system are fun and the art style of this game is literally incredible and the amount of building customization you can do is essentially infinite.
It is rare to encounter a city-builder that is able to strike a good balance between creative freedom of building and gameplay-mechanics like this one. I am a fan of the city-builder genre in general, and sometimes the mood does not allow for deep complex mechanics, while also not being satisfied with freeform citybuilders with no goal or mechanics at all.
Bulwark Evolution hit this spot very well, as the answer to most challenges presented in the game is just to build more, without too much restrictions or requirements at all. In a way it is bit of a reversal of the usual goals found in city-builders, instead of challenged limiting or dictating a certain way things must be built, Bulwark just lets you continue building however you see fit in most cases, and solving or unlocking the goals you do have along the way.
This way Bulwark combines freeform citybuilding with a sense of rewarding progression that does not require crunching numbers or solve complex logistic puzzles, while just tinkering on a city in a relaxed, almost leisurely feeling way.
So, if you are looking for a citybuilder that is offering more than just freeform-building, without going all the way to micro-managing and surveying every logistic aspect of a city (as much as i enjoy to do that too often enough), then you might enjoy Bulwark a lot.
I really love this game! The mechanics and graphics make it feel like a relaxed sea of thieves/ sim city combined. The newer updates have really improved the game too, and the community surrounding the game has been oh so friendly. Overall 10/10 gaming sessions. (:
A fun little relaxing game with some beautiful graphics and ship design. i'd very much recommend this game to anyone who likes a city builder and combat game.
9/10 needs more airship variety.
The artwork seemed nice and the reviews were promising.
But I found the controls just clunky, the voice acting quite boring and not much desire to dive deep into the game.
Sorry. Not for me...
Fantastic! Light strategy + responsive and unique city building. Experimenting is just a joy.
Guess it's just me but the controls are garbage. You cannot just select a building easily. I spent so much time on just trying to select a building and just gave up. The controls do not need to be this restrictive or annoying.
It looks cool but the controls kill this game for me. Uninstalling, too late to get a refund...
Like Tiny Glade but with steampunk airship battles and a huge map. Basically hardcore Tiny Glade.
Simple, but addictive and fun! Definitely give this a go, great to unwind to yet also manages to draw you in. (just make sure to turn off resource-extractors depleting)
Great relaxing game with a lot of innovative ideas for city-building fans. Developer is active and responsive to the community, which always rocks!
now its fine, i did sink 17 hours into it. but i dont like the lack of trade captains there are. or static defense. very hard to fine a reason to spread out. i only built stuff to fast travel. it is beautiful, it is a new way to play a game. but not for me. its just a once play through kind of game for me
Bulwark is a literal game-changer, providing an epic and immersive experience that stands out in today's gaming landscape. From the moment you dive into its meticulously crafted world from lush landscapes to intricately built fortresses, you're greeted with stunning visuals that showcase detailed environments in a beautifully designed art style with a novel UI paradigm.
Graphics and Design: The game's visuals are nothing short of breathtaking. Each scene is rich with detail, making the world of Bulwark feel alive and vibrant. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the atmospheric weather effects to the diverse architecture of fortresses. It is even more impressive knowing that this game and tech was made by 1 guy.
Gameplay: Bulwark excels in delivering a chill but rewarding gameplay experience. The mechanics are different from your regular city builder and may require some effort to learn, but you will quickly notice that everything controls very intuitive. The satisfaction of finding new commanders or outposts that allows you to build and upgrade your fortresses is engaging.
Storyline: The game's universe is expansive, filled with history and mystery that beckons players to explore and uncover its map and secrets. There isn't a strict narrative to follow with questing or cutscenes, and frankly it isn't needed because it would detract from the vibe and mystery the game is going for.
Sound and Music: The sound design and music are exceptional. The soundtrack is epic, perfectly complementing the gloomy grandeur of the game's world and its battles. I am a fan of orchestral music and folk and the music and SFX are great.
Updates and development: Usually I don't put this in reviews but Tomas deserves a special mention because he is hot how passionate he is about his project. There have been numerous free updates that expand the game in a big way and even more is coming. This isn't a live service or early access and you get a solid game for a decent price that gets updated frequently. The developer is also open to feedback and discussion.
This game is very cool. It breaks a lot of conventions with out feeling totally inscrutable along the way. That said it's a big wide open sandbox that can leave new players uncertain "what to do" and if I had any criticism to share it'd be that it could help the player understand the possibility space a bit more clearly.
Excellent game, very creative interpretation on the city-builder genre. Well worth the money.
This "Game" is very experimental, being a freeform build and explore type of experience.
One of the best games I've played this year, Bulwark: Evolution stands out as a labor of love from a developer who clearly understands and respects their player base. The game's highly stylized art direction immediately catches the eye - while not hyper-realistic, the 3D models of cities, ships, and other elements feature impressive detail that brings this world to life. The cartoony aesthetic works perfectly for the game's style, likely to appeal to anyone who appreciates comic book art or adult animation.
As someone burned by abandoned god-game projects like Godus, I was hesitant at first. However, Bulwark: Evolution has completely restored my faith in the genre. The developer's consistent commitment to improvement is evident in their regular updates, refining existing systems and adding new gameplay elements based on community feedback. This level of engagement and responsiveness to the player base is refreshing.
Playing in the main Bulwark mode, I've found the blend of fortress building and strategic elements deeply engaging. While I haven't explored the Freebuild or Total Conquest modes yet, the core experience offers enough depth and satisfaction to keep me coming back.
A word of advice to potential players: take time to review the game description and perhaps watch some gameplay videos before purchasing. This isn't trying to be a AAA RTS - it's something more unique and experimental, and understanding what you're getting into will help you better appreciate what makes this game special.
nice city building mechanics
A relaxing city-painter with some mild 4X elements. Lovely, stylized graphics, relaxing music, unusual setting, and just the right degree of depth. Has been getting ongoing updates. Clearly a labor of love by the developer and well worth checking out.
This game has captured me in it's amazing world and keeps me playing for hours longer than I thought had passed. The city design is fairly simple to start with and there's no wrong way to build. But once you get the hang of how the buildings and foundations generate, you can make some amazing creations. The airship theme and beautiful ocean are just a cherry on top of an amazingly chill, but still deep game.
Great game, relaxing and therapeutic but gets boring after a couple of hours as you're able to explore the mechanics within a short time frame. Although the main focus of the game is to continue building no matter what, the content falls short and mechanics are not deep enough to challenge the brain in any form.
Also, the game released 9 months ago, and currently there are 10 players online - this is not a multiplayer but it has lost 90% of the initial 800+ players at release date. The developers need a better marketing campaing because if it was not for the sale I would no have found this game.
Great game with ongoing updates, keen to see where this ends up
This is a new take on a 4x-light style of game. It's pretty chill while still throwing in events to keep you on your toes every now and then. You don't actually *have* to fight any of the other factions in the game, but at some point you will probably be tempted to actually use all these frigates, warbirds, and airships you have been using to trade or explore. The game still has some rough spots in both city construction and management, but the developer has been constantly evolving and improving the game in a most satisfactory way.
Stunning visuals, simple enough for a casual experience but still interesting enough to stay hooked.
This game is pretty enjoyable. Though I feel like I have just scratched the surface. It is worth a look as the concept is interesting as well as the art. I would recommend that you play the tutorial, as it isn't super intuitive to pick up. But, I would recommend at least taking a look at the game.
Bulwark Evolution: Falconeer Chronicles is a different take on the city builders of old. You embark on a journey of rebuilding a shattered world in the aftermath of a great cataclysm, whose survivors are scattered to its far corners. As you explore the Ursee, the flooded and broken world in which these scattered people must now ek out a new existence, you are surrounded by a sense of what has been lost. Mighty empires have risen and fallen in the Ursee and you are their remnants. Yet, even as the world around you is shattered, broken, and hauntingly foreboding and beyond it is a feeling of serenity. Feelings that are reinforced by an awarded winning soundtrack that makes it all the easier to while away the hours trying to recapture some semblance of what has been lost.
However, the innovative style of building and game play is what really sets this title apart from others in the genre. While alien at first to any familiar with a city builder, it fosters a level of personal attachment to the people you now shepherd. Placing your up close and personal with the settlements you’ll soon build. A style of game play that explores an organic style of building as you build budding settlements and towering fortress across this misbegotten world. The only real limitation is your creativity, and how many hours you are able to while away before your return to the real world.
Incredible hidden gem of a game and setting. This independent Dev's passion for not only this game, but the several other's he's made is felt through the gameplay of each. Bulwark in particular is an unique take on genre of games that is general all the same, on top of a beautiful open world it's a great experience.
Fantastic RTS builder!
Have spent many hours now both getting to know the world and the building system and I'm supremely impressed with the ability of this solo dev. The visual style and lore are intriguing, the RTS elements feel natural to the world and setting, and the building/growth system is intuitive (at least for me).
I've loved spending time figuring out how to squeeze every last bit of content out of this and cant wait to see what gets added.
acceptable, but could do with a a more open approach to building resources
A relaxing game that is a labor of love for the developer, who has been making interesting improvements since the initial release.
Fun little time waster, build expand, maybe dick over some other people, all fun.
This game is as wide as the ocean but as shallow as a puddle. The visual of this game is beautiful and calming but unless that's all you enjoy out of a game I would steer clear of this game.
Very unique art style with a very unique gameplay. I love how your cities can keep expanding and each gain their unique ways, combined with the exploring of vast oceans you can do. Would definitely give it a try if you like city building/ resource management games, with the occasional battle, but also want to relax a bit.
Who doesn't like airships? the sea? entire cities on stilts and concrete blocks?
Bulwark got it all, and while there is a focus on building pretty cities, unlike the vast majority of similar game, it actually has gameplay attached to it, along with unique buildings and airships for all 4 factions, offering a modicum of replayability despite it's genre.
And hey, it's also pretty good to just make pretty looking cities on the sea!
This game will make you look like a way better city planner than you actually are.
Charming and fun to start with, but after you've played it a few hours you've seen the whole game. Far too expensive for what you get, regretted purchase.
Absolute recommend. Amazing game for laying back and enjoying the atmosphere. Characters and voice acting are super, game mechanics are fresh, free, unique and satisfying to master, controls are dead simple and easy to use, and the visuals are gorgeous.
WELL DONE solo dev!!!
I was upset when I finally had nothing more to complete! =)
I also love airships and boats so this was an easy win for me.
Cute and Chill City Builder. Would recommend to wait for a sale however
