I've been playing RTS games since the early 90s (civ, C&C, OG starcraft). Now we're making our own RTS game, where the goal is to build a colony in a land infest by 100,000 dinosaurs (we let them breed too much, and it got out of control). https://store.steampowered.com/app/2768380/Repterra/ I'll also be running a private beta if you want access to the first playable version. Stay tuned for more updates :)

It's been roughly a month since release and I've got a lot of good feedback during that time. This update is mostly adjustments based on that feedback, as well as some pretty substantial performance upgrades. The biggest game changer is that the level up thresholds are much lower now and therefore occur more often. Also.. I've also been working on a demo for my next game Infest. Give it a wishlist if you haven't already. I'll be continuing to update Forest Fire with your feedback over the next several months. Many thanks, -Carl

Includes a workaround for the Unity bug where the flame won't light on certain PCs (usually laptops with integrated GPUs).

As you probably know I've got lots of other projects in the pipeline, so stay tuned for more updates to Forest Fire, as well as Sandbox Skyline and Infest. Thanks for you support along the way!
