One month into development — here's our first real gameplay footage. Everything runs in real-time, no scripts, no mockups.                                                             

                                                                                                                                 

                                                       
• Settlers walking the road network, carrying goods on their backs
  
• Carriers delivering materials from flag to flag
  
• Buildings under construction with staged material delivery
  
• Territory borders with physical marker posts
  
• Volumetric fog of war hiding unexplored areas       
  
• 5,000+ trees with wind sway and LOD transitions
  
• Deer grazing, ravens circling, ocean waves                                                                                                 

                                                                        

                                 

• 209 commits in 31 days
  
• 25,000 entities at 50+ FPS
  
• 14 state machines driving all behaviour                                        
  
• 65+ entity configurations
  
• 33 building types                              

Our top priority: the production system. Buildings exist but don't produce goods yet. Once woodcutters, sawmills and farms are working, the real gameplay loop begins.
