Since the last time we made an announcement here, a lot has changed. In the future, we will try to provide as much news as possible. Here is a non-exhaustive list of what has been done:
- Mathematical models have been updated: population, immigration, jobs/labor, safety, education. - Graphs have been reworked to fit the screen resolution. - A history for the jobs of political figures - We have improved the event graph system - We added a real translation system - We welcomed our first intern who worked on the diplomacy part of the game. He's gone now, but he did a good job :D - The political management window has been reworked so that it no longer freezes when loading all the numbers. - We updated the Doug window which is actually a skill tree for the player. - We made some graphical updates and removed an old font used in some places - Improved the algorithm for assigning the labor force to the labor market - Improved the taking into account of migration profiles on the age pyramid of the country - Improved calculation of taxes in the Industry domain - Addition of several budgetary areas and new laws in the Security area - Addition of new industries - Correction of a bug in the calculation of Industry salaries and the evolution of the average salary of the country - Added a hook system for characters: discovering a secret for a character offers a hook for the player that can be used in events or in votes, everything has not been decided yet. - Improved the dynamics of the population's living standards. - Minor corrections regarding income tax calculation - Added compatibility with steam achievements - New flag animation on the main menu - Increased compatibility with 16:10 ratio - Improved user interface in general - Added credits screen - Improved level loading, it is now faster - Fixed minor bugs - Some bugs have been fixed in the save files

Successful crowdfunding campaign!
Sorry for the late news!
After more than a month of campaigning we can be proud to have reached our goal! More than 3500 euros collected which will be used to finance the graphics of the game, but also the music, the marketing. If we have enough left, we would like to have the game's UI reviewed by a specialist so that he can advise us.
Until the release, we are working hard to try to make a game worthy of the name.
See you soon!

Crowdfunding on April 4 2022
After two years of work on the game, we decided to launch a crowdfunding campaign! This would allow us to help us add content to the game, like new events, new figures, new icons or new banners for our ministries. The goal is to raise 3500 euros for these future investments!
So if you feel like it, don't hesitate to donate, it would help us a lot :D I leave here the link to the Ulule for the pre-registration (start on April 4th 2022) for whoever wants:
