Gameplay

Play through various real-life scenarios from Countryball World War 1's Campaign or just play throughout the years in a skirmish. Strategize and Conquer your enemies using vehicles and weapons from the first world war. Shape the world to be whatever you want it to be! You want the world to be a democracy? Go for it! How about communism? That's your choice! Build your Armies, conquer your enemies, and force your enemies to follow your ideology while at the same time, Managing your Economy and your Technology! The choice is yours!

Comedy And Humor

Having a good sense of humor is a must for this game as some could find it slightly offensive. There will be events that are made fun of or oversimplified all for the sake of the joke but never forget! It's all just comedy and we mean no harm!

Enjoy various comedic oversimplified events throughout history in our Campaign or play a Skirmish match against AI! We set the game up so anyone can enjoy it at any pace!

Combat

Combat is similar to any other real-time Strategy game, select your Units and give them any commands available to them. Send Units to war and even command some to build structures. The choice is yours!

Trench Warfare

Dig in and defend your Country with Trench Warfare! Ground Combat units have the ability to dig in and build trenches for extra cover/defense. The barbed wire does additional damage whenever enemy units stand on them. The mud makes it harder for enemy units to cross over slowing them down, giving the units inside the trench the opportunity to pick off enemies one at a time!

Factions

The plan is to have EVERY country from 1914 in the game. All factions will have a Unique Countryball design but Units such as Tanks, ships, and planes will all be the same but with the country's unique chosen color. This is because these items will be able to be traded, sold, and even given away to opposing or allied factions. Donate or sell a few tanks to your Ally or trade some destroyer ships with your trading partners. It's all up to you!

Faction Ideology

This is your research tree. You can take your country down a few different paths and or even mix them up. Choose Communism, Socialism, or even Democracy! Each Ideology will be similar to another but will have some very unique abilities. Ideologies are based on Economy, War, and Technology.

Animations

The animations were done in all types of programs, Unity, Spriter, Spine but most of them are hand-drawn animations designed to give us unique animations, especially the death animations!

Level Design

Players will battle across a real-world map designed specifically for Countryballs! Very beautiful, colorful, diverse map with all types of environments like Snow, Desert, volcanic, normal, and beaches.

Environments play a small role in warfare. For example, on this map, most of Russia is covered in snow. Invading this territory will require the "Cold Weather Upgrade" or all units will be penalized with and -10% Speed Debuff.

Environments have their advantages and disadvantages to give you the "Home-Field advantage". The feature "Home-Field advantage" can be toggled on and off before every skirmish match.

The art style chosen was a very simple friendly colorful style I believe goes perfectly with the classic Countryball theme.

Different ways to play

Borrowing different gameplay elements from some of the "sim" type games, this game will also have a simulator mode as well as a normal mode. The simulator mode will be a City management simulator with combat.

DIPLOMACY

How will you plan to deal with the countries you share a border with? Who will you Ally and make enemies with? What is your Country's overall Goal? Space? War? To Unite the world? These are questions you need to ask yourself as a leader. Manage international relationships or just ignore the rest of the world! It's Your Choice!

STRATEGY

Real-Time Strategy but with Countryballs! Come up with all types of strategies to defeat your foe, use tanks, ships, planes in War, or use trade and diplomacy. Choose wisely and decide the fate of the world around you!

BUILD STRUCTURES

Build Military, Economic, and Defense Structures! There are 3 types of military structures.

Barracks- Creates Ground Units such as Infantry and tanks

Seaport- Create vehicles like boats and destroyer ships

Airports- Creates Planes and Zeppelins

Economic structures are the Cites and Oil refineries

City- Generates Higher Population and adds currency to your GDP over time.

Military size depends on your country's population. The higher your Population. The more Units you can have.

Oil Refinery- Extract oil and adds it to your Oil reserves.

Defense Turrets are stable turrets that attack any non-ally unit that enters its line of sight radius

ECONOMY MANAGEMENT

Manage your GDP and Oil Reserves!

GDP- This is your country's main currency and is used to buy everything in the game. Country's receive GDP from Cities. Over time Each City generates and adds to your Country's GDP.

Oil- Basically your country's secondary currency. Use this to purchase more technically advanced units and structures
