Hexia
Hexia - 2023
Even our all too prolonged silence has finally come to an end. Despite this lack of communication, our work on Hexia has never stopped, and the project is still alive and in active production.
This year the intent is to complete everything we started two years ago. For this reason, the game will be released completely by the end of March, with no other updates in between.
We thank all those who have followed us up to now, who have believed in our little project. This path has brought us a lot of experience, a lot of satisfaction and also a lot of problems to overcome and understand, and now it is coming to a conclusion.
This is just the first step towards the future.
May 2023 bring satisfaction and growth: just as we aim to continue on our path, we wish everyone to do the same with their passions.
Devlog - Road to v0.6.0
One of the aspects on which we are working intensively is the user experience. Many interface, navigation and aesthetic changes are being tested and implemented, in order to make the game playability immediate and intuitive for any player.

Another very important area, and one of which we have already mentioned something, are the campaigns, that is the stories that will give life to the purpose that will push the player towards a specific final goal. New special events will be implemented in the campaigns, which will be unique and discoverable only by facing certain campaigns. These new special events will reflect the specific situation of each story, allowing the player to influence the plot through their choices.
This update will be the largest and most profound ever released on Hexia before, and for this reason it will take our small team of just two people a long time to refine and create. We thank you in advance for your patience, we will do everything possible to finish everything as quickly as possible.
Hexia and the storyline
But what does it mean to have a campaign with a storyline?
The events present in the game are peculiar situations that can happen in any story, the campaign instead is a specific and well-defined narrative arc, which provides the player with a clear goal to achieve, and a path to face to get there.
Each set of objectives will have its own context to refer to: for example, if people are hungry, you will need to build more farms or fishing areas, rather than any other type of construction.
More details on the stories and challenges that players will have to face will be revealed in the coming days, so stay tuned.
At the moment we’ll leave you with a couple of clues:
- The Coven is always present, and observes every move of the Kingdom, whether we like it or not.
- There are other Kingdoms besides the one created by the player, and this will be an important factor to consider.
New objectives coming soon
Our efforts are currently focusing on storytelling and Campaigns, which will in fact be more than one. The underlying mechanics behind each objective, the points that allow you to proceed with the story and win the selected Campaign, are being expanded and improved.
In the new patch will therefore arrive the complete stories of two new Campaigns, which will give meaning and direction to what is done within the game, and improved and broader objectives, suitable to support both added narratives.
