Hey Alvaro your game is amazing. I have written several games for friends and family and want to publish. What tech stack do you use for your development?
Thanks
Greg

Thank you for the kind words
I don't know what a tech stack is.
I used Unity Engine with C# and visual studio. It comes with the engine.
Matrix does the packaging, uploads, PBEM, etc.
Basically I get to code, do graphics, do sound, and they handle the rest.
Unity is fairly difficult to learn. Personally I do not like that they objectify everything in the game. I prefer coding things like GUIs. Unity has a map system you can use to create lovely maps. But I made my own map system that is faster and specifically for wargames. Thus why the map scrolls to well. Their's is flexible for all sorts of games and can be 3d. Some of the 3d games made in Unity that are hex based are really nice.
