The End of Shipyard Games
In Shipyard Games, we have always looked to develop new and inventive geolocation games, mixing different genres with a geolocation twist as its core. After several very different prototypes, we learned a lot and developed advanced technology that we could use for any geolocation game we wanted.
The most recent one was Wizards & Kingdoms GO, a very promising game with a fast growing and passionate community. We released an early version around two months ago, knowing it had content for 1-2weeks, but many of you are still playing and are craving for more content. Recently, we have been more quiet and slowed the release cadence because we've been designing how the full game would be for global launch.
Mixing our own ideas with the invaluable feedback we got from all of you, here are the main features that we agreed on to make during the next year:
Character progression with different talent paths (fighter, explorer, farmer and builder).
Character customisation and cosmetic rewards for self-expression.
Deeper town building where every town would have its own progression.
Buildings will generate refined resources, act as trading centres, enhance troops, defence buildings, etc.
Towns could be built anywhere in the world, and players would always have access to them.
Towns could be packed and redeployed anywhere to avoid congestion once per season.
Towns could not be destroyed or captured, but every player would only be able to build few of them.
Players would benefit for visiting other player towns, even from a different team.
Companions will be collectable (interesting, different per biome, not consumed) closer to Pokémon GO.
Companions will be upgradable and be equipped with items for a fight.
Companions and enemies will have more stats and attack types to make the combat way more interesting.
Seasons will consist of a number of tournaments.
Seasons will have specific themes and rewards, and can have slightly different rules.
Social: friends, gifts and chat.
Clan PvP: mode where clans are ranked by ELO and have their own shared world for the ultimate competitive mode.
Visual rework having a stronger more appealing theme for the game.
We were very excited to finally fulfil our dream of making an amazing new geolocation MMO in a shared world, and we were quite sure with this design we could achieve it. Unfortunately, the company situation is critical, we have been running out of money and our previous investor didn’t want to continue supporting us despite how promising the game was. This means that with all our sorrow we will shut down the company in about two months. The game will not receive more updates and because we can’t keep paying for the servers, the game will eventually be taken offline.
We sincerely appreciate so much all of your help, amazing feedback, bug reports, memes, tutorials, kind words for the team… and we are very sorry we could not finish the game you all deserve, but unfortunately often dreams need money to become true, and we ran out of it.
