VEmpire - The Kings of Darkness

Update is up!

Hi folks!

Update is live!

This was a rushed one (more on this later!), so expect the next update very soon...

cheers, a very tired wolf...

Clarification: VEmpire will be back soon!

Hi my dear VEmpire followers!

You might have realized that VEmpire is taken down because of:

DMCA copyright issue because of this symbol of this company:

https://www.worldofdarkness.com/grimoire/clan/Brujah

We have never heard or seen anything of this company before!
This Symbol was unfortunately used as part of a photohop-brush set by one of our artists!

No one have had the intention to copy anything, so it is our fault, yes you can not even use a brush without checking!

Over the last four years we have developed and invented all by our own:
Story, Theme and art is our own legal property, it has been developed and drawn by hand by my very talented artists.
We are proud to have this consistent theme which is very rare today!

It is very unlucky that this sign has been used, it is something that has been attached afterwards, what a pitty!

We are already working on removing it, it is on 4 cards!
We are very sad that this is a reason to take the game down. The company also have could talked to us, we would have removed it immidiately!

Steam says we should make an agreement with them, which we are trying to achieve asap!
Unfortunately we do not have an answer from them until now!

I hope you still stand behind our project, you know about our big plans & our dedication!

I still believe that hard work matters and the many mails i got in the last 12 hours, more then ever before, are giving me hope!

Thanks guys, i'll keep you in the loop!

If there are any questions, ask me, no secrets!

cheers...




Sorry for the silence, new update comes soon!

Hi folks!

I am really sorry for the silence here on steam, but some of you might know
that we are busy preparing the upcoming iOS version of VEmpire.

Anyway a lot of good things and improvements have found the way into the game.
Most things however are in the background about stability and robustness.

The feature i like the most and came from a mobile VEmpire player is the Mercenary Sum. This is just, to save space, Mercenaries are aggregated in the empire, so that there is just one card visible with the number of the amount on top.
Simple, but a great improvement regarding clarity.

So stay tuned, the update comes soon, and please keep the fingers crossed
for the app-review by apple.

cheers, yours wolf!

Update UP!

Update is live.

We've the mercenary replacement removed, let's see.
If with this there is a feature gone that you've loved, tell us!

There have been many bug-fixes.

Overall there is a big improvement introduced which also means the server is updated, which is a rare case.
The PvP communication should be much more stable and solid.

As always please alarm me asap if something does not work as expected.

Thanks guys!

cheers, wolf...

Need your opinion on the Start-Deck!

Hi folks!

First of all: thanks for your great support & contribution during the last days, especially thanks for the pos. reviews!
I love you guys, and i am looking forward to bring you new and amazing content.

-START-DECK Issue:
As experimental idea(as EA should be used for) we introduced to choose to replace 4 mercenaries.

The thing is now: There are guys that obviously like this, and there are ones
that want this to be removed!

I can understand both sides, but at the end of the day i am more on the side of those who wants it to be removed.
Why: It is somehow against a 'clean' game-design, and this modes are more for learning and showcasing. With this feature games are more unbalanced because it matters more what you draw first.
Anyway I understand also the other side.

Also we've gathered great input for 'other' start-deck improvements, as a mix of mercenaries, where 4 of them also give you a gulden if empired! - But nothing to choose, this would be default then!
Think of this, this could be really nice, i think.

However: I really need your opinion on this!

Looking forward to a discussion ːsteamhappyː

Server maintenance today - update tomorrow!

Hi folks!

Not really an issue!

Just want to notify you. If you do not see all the games on the games tab, do not worry it is all fine, no data get's lost, we are just maintaining a little, you'll
see all of them again soon...

Still busy working on the update, because of testing we need time until tomorrow for the update!

cheers, wolf....

Next update comes this week!

Hi guys!

During testing "cross-platform" with iOS we've detected some nasty bugs.
The good news: we "have" them , they just need to be fixed, but wisely...

So expect an update in the next day(s)!

As i've promised, the work on mobile and testing "cross-platform" will improve the quality of the game!
This have not been just words as we see now!

Also we never thought of different scenarios of "bad" connection in PvP which really is an issue with mobile, so we are also improving the game to be much more stable in situations
where connection get's lost or times out or whatever...

cheers, wolf...

PS: if anyone want's to test on iOS, would be great to have one from you guys!
Android: a little later!

Review behavior makes me sad...

Hi folks!

something about the reviews...

i've the feeling that just a very few people that like the game write a positive review...

Anyway a big thanks to you guys, that have helped me with one, it means a lot!

I love critics but what i get to read in the negative reviews....hmmm
There is an ongoing discussion in the dev-forums that someone should have at least a little time spend with the game.

Take the last review:
"The game itself is kinda cool, with interesting mechanics. But the whole digital thing is awful, badly designed, way too slow and complicated as eff."

I do not want to say anything about it..
Just: the same person has given a positive review for Ascension!? Have you ever played it on PC? And VEmpire is "awful" and badly designed?

TBH some days i really feel like an idiot, doing all this...

sorry guys, but i am honest, and i honestly feel sad about this...
tell me what you think!

cheers, wolf

Hi & thanks to the new ones!

I'm extremely grateful for the new players -

Thanks for joining us!

It is very important for me to mention that everyone of you cares for me!
This is not only said, but my honest believe!
Without the love and support of our players we would not have made it that far!

If there is anything you want to mention, suggest or complain about the game
i would love to hear it!

I'm a little sorry for not being so present here in the last time as i wanted to!

The reason: we are very busy at the moment on bringing the game to mobile platforms!
Since this is done, we are looking forward to bring new content in the PC/MAC/Linux versions, atm. we are thinking of Hi-(story) cards, more on this soon!

cheers, wolf...
