A free-roaming squad based RPG. Focusing on open-ended gameplay features rather than a linear story. Be a trader, a thief, a rebel, a mercenary, a business owner, a doctor, a bandit... the list goes on. Aid or oppose the various factions in the world while striving for the strength and wealth necessary to simply survive in the harsh desert. Purchase and upgrade your own buildings to use as safe fortified havens when things go bad, or use them to start up a business. Train your men up from puny victims to master warriors. Carry your wounded squad mates to safety and get them all home alive.
Doors! Exciting doors!
All buildings in the game now have doors. It was not the most pleasant job to do, making a clickable door slide open is easy enough, its integration into the multi-threaded pathfinding system that causes...

The long-overdue pathfinding update is finally out. It was a big one and took quite a while as it involved completely tearing out and replacing the pathfinding system.

I'm really starting to believe the money goal isn't going to be reached.. :(
What happens if the funding doesnt reach the goal? Is money refunded or do you still get it for development?
Still crashing for me in the menue screen
Captin-Deathbeard I have a question why is it you need all of this funding? Im not being a **** head or nothing im just asking why do you want so much money for making this game?
Its listed on the indiegogo page. I need to hire artists and programmers and such, and they charge a good wage. The foliage update was a result of me hiring an artist for 2 weeks.
Good news, John Bain mentioned indiegogo about funding games on one of his latest videos wich probably means he readed my message, here what he saied: "Some people asked me to include indiegogo, i will see what i can do". The fact that he saied *include* is because he started a series of video called kicksmarter wich serves to gives a chance to games that has a bad funding to reach their goal. In conclusion, wait and see.
I really wish this game get the popularity it deserves, its a good gaming piece.
Tried Kenshi....i love it. When are you planning to add sound and more abilities?
Sound is waiting on the indiegogo money.
For people with trouble running the game, read this forum post first: Lofigames.com . If that does not work, post on my forum or send me a message here with your system specs and 2 files - crashDump.zip and ogre.log file that you may find in the kenshi folder.
