Clearly they practice sustainable lumbering. ...Well, everybody does with Lumber Huts...

This is my explanation.

There's a bug difference between "sustainable lumbering" and "rampant deforestation".

Why in some maps we don’t have ‘Burn Forest’?

Can you give me an example?

I'll let them in on a secret.

Before they hop back into the game, they should tap the "Resign" button on the game popup.

That's actually the Kazakh word for "remove all the boats on the map," which we made sure was there for moments like this.

Ask them to push it, and all your worries will be gone. ;)

I have a lore question which I wanted to know for a long time. So the units we play with are not single Politopians but should represent regiments with hundreds of soldiers right?

Does the same thing counts for giants? Are they really one mountain sized single unit or are they also a regiment of multiple "giants" which are just a taller, stronger and more durable subspecies of polytopians but not as big as represented.

I always imagined them compared with normal polytopians like Space Mariens compared to normal soldiers if this says something to you.

So, we haven't delved much into Giants yet, so this answer may change.

But I like to think of Giants as single units, compared to the normal battalions of standard Polytopians.

Oh . . . I thought it'd be really cool to have just giant zebras or bears walking around in a forest with trees like 1/5 their size . . . can you make it canon?

No, as we've already shown the animals next to the Polytopians on plenty of occasions

So, so we would dwarf even the giants

Easily

Oh really? Never know that. Would explain why the cities are so tiny or the animals are so large then.

Well, the animals are to scale, also being like, 4" tall.

Their size on the screen is just for user convenience.

Are there such things as humans in the polytopian world? Perhaps a past or future species that existed? Or are we just entirely irrelevant to the Polytopians?

Humans have never inhabited the Square.

Besides, the Polytopians are only 4" tall, so we wouldn't fit well anyway

. . .Polytopia is about humans. There are a bunch of tribes on a square vying for supremacy. The best players being in the bug tribe is more a preference of people playing small, fast matches, which the cymanti (bug) tribe is very good in. If you read their lore, you'll see that they're humans who breed and control bugs and have a symbiotic relation with the ciru bug.

Well, they're not "humans".

They're Polytopians. :P

This is really unfortunate. Hopefully you can sort it out one day.

Trust me, we're angry about it, too

Requirements like what? There is not even a chat function where players could be toxic or anything.

It was more technical. They had very specific requirements, like how we could use our servers and other sorts of things, that they pulled on us really late in development.

Comment

As of the moment, we currently have no plans to add this due to the sheer amount of effort it'd take to implement it.

Sorry

Why do they not want the game to have multiplayer?

We're not too sure, honestly. They just kept piling on more and more requirements.
