| 5s | Coenen concord is kind of a new genre |
|---|---|
| 7s | it's a survival RTS game it's not a |
| 12s | traditional realtime strategy game you |
| 14s | have a lot of spinning plates there is a |
| 16s | lot to worry about it's not just build |
| 19s | an army build a base going attack the |
| 21s | other guy you're defending up against |
| 23s | waves of enemy attackers and the waves |
| 25s | get progressively more difficult you |
| 27s | know you're Conan you're in front of |
| 28s | this Citadel that you're supposed to |
| 29s | defend they get more challenging they |
| 31s | get more deadly there's this clock |
| 33s | that's ticking and the drumbeats are |
| 35s | going in the background they're getting |
| 36s | gradually louder you know something |
| 39s | nasty is gonna have to play by yourself |
| 41s | or with a friend you're gonna try and |
| 43s | survive through so many waves to see how |
| 45s | long you can remain uncommon |
| 49s | a petroglyph we've kind of continued |
| 55s | along with our strategy game DNA and RTS |
| 58s | kind of game DNA I mean pretty much |
| 61s | anything fantasy and sci-fi is gonna get |
| 63s | people around here interested but Conan |
| 65s | is one of the top ones object and being |
| 67s | able to make the first you know strategy |
| 69s | based Conan game that was huge to us so |
| 72s | it's kind of a conquered you're not |
| 74s | really fighting against a base you're |
| 75s | fighting against the elements and over |
| 78s | oiling odds so depending on you how you |
| 82s | setup the game and the customization |
| 84s | you'll be pitted against you know a find |
| 87s | out a number of ways or even an infinite |
| 88s | amount of waves we've built in a lot |
| 90s | more simulation that we ever have in any |
| 92s | other game you're managing a lot more |
| 94s | resources so there's a lot of different |
| 96s | choices to make on which resources you |
| 99s | actually want to go out and and gather |
| 101s | and harvest to determine like what type |
| 104s | of things you want to build the worlds |
| 107s | are randomly generated as well so it's |
| 110s | not the same map that you play every |
| 112s | time it's a new experience every time |
| 115s | you really have to layer in a lot of the |
| 117s | strategy and challenge elements we're |
| 120s | trying to Concord that's kind of what |
| 122s | we're trying to do with the multiple |
| 124s | enemy types that have different |
| 126s | behaviors you have to deal with with |
| 128s | environmental effects such as disease |
| 130s | and sandstorms and fire all of those |
| 133s | things or the challenges the strategy |
| 135s | comes in you know what buildings you |
| 137s | build how you spend your resources what |
| 140s | unit you're using to combat the |
| 141s | challenges the other nice thing about |
| 142s | cut and conquer it is that you can not |
| 144s | only play solo play you can play |
| 146s | cooperatively as well with a friend or a |
| 148s | stranger you can match make and find a |
| 150s | stranger to play with the two players |
| 151s | can play together and play against |
| 154s | even worse waves than the solo version |
| 157s | they are much more powerful they'll come |
| 160s | from multiple directions at once very |
| 162s | early so it'll take all both of you |
| 165s | working together to survive one of the |
| 167s | most exciting things that players can |
| 169s | experience is the multiplayer aspect of |
| 171s | Kona an unconquered we thought that was |
| 173s | a great opportunity to give fans kind of |
| 176s | a different way to play a survival RTS |
| 178s | game it's just fun to kind of share the |
| 180s | challenge it is so much fun to share |
| 181s | that victory you know with somebody and |
| 183s | it's also nice too because one person |
| 185s | could manage one thing was somebody else |
| 186s | manages something else I think that the |
| 188s | main impetus for making this game was |
| 192s | our love for other experiments are going |
| 195s | on in the RTS genre right now I am a big |
| 198s | fan of frost punk we all fell in love |
| 200s | with their billions I want to make a |
| 202s | game that has some some of the elements |
| 204s | that that this has because it's really |
| 207s | fun to you know like build and survive |
| 210s | these are great games and they're great |
| 212s | examples of a survival strategic game |
| 216s | that that we thought me and that's |
| 218s | that's really good what else could we do |
| 220s | with that taking their billions means |
| 223s | stronghold and then putting it in that |
| 225s | mode Colossus storyline from Robert |
| 228s | Howard you know that's well known from |
| 229s | you know the old Conan comic books and |
| 231s | eBooks yeah it's very savage and brutal |
| 234s | just like I take Conan look like oh yeah |
| 236s | Conan what is best in life you see your |
| 239s | enemies driven before you and to play |
| 242s | the strategy that's right |
