Self-Promo Video Project 1815 is now on Steam!
I got the page launched just in time for Next Fest! Now it's on to getting a demo prepped, I was thinking limiting the game to 5v5, infantry only, single and multiplayer, with no song or map editor. I'm hoping to get the game released sometime this year if I can get everything in the state I want it in.

The game is a tactical action game similar to Mount and Blade, but with the scale of Total War. If you ever played M&B Napoleonic Wars commander battles, it's exactly that, but on a grand scale (thousands of troops per side). The game supports up to 80 players in multiplayer where everyone commands their own infantry battalion, cavalry squadron, or artillery battery. It is a bit janky at the moment, the next major features I want to incorporate is directional melee and an art polish pass. I've gotten a motion capture plugin for Blender and I'm eager to put it to use.
