May Brad Feedback

The file is strangely labelled as "Brad" and not "Brad.pdf"

 

I am amazed at the quantity and quality of feedback here.  It sounds like all wonderful stuff aimed at what makes gaming great.  It surpasses the critical content of the forum, which is impressive in itself.

 

Thanks, Brad.   Good stuff.

Very interesting read...loving the hand drawn UI parts  ^_^

 

Totally agree with Brad about the importance of a 'readable' UI. Games like Civ V and even Paradox GS games have brought the accessibility of the UI on a long way in the last few years, even this early I think Brad is right the stress the importance of an accessible, clean interface that still offers all the options you would need.

 

Also fully agree with the final point that before beta more of the 'actual'/important gameplay systems need to be there over other features that can wait (specifically the point about AI at least being able to attack and defend). I am really looking forward to seeing the progress made in Alpha 0.2.0 when we get it.
