Thank you mate, just saw your steam review too! Really appreciated <3
And shit should work on a PC. Only weird thing I saw before was sometimes anti-virus programs don't like the .exe for some reason. Couldn't play it on my own PC once when I coded the damn thing. But it's identical to Warsim in it's format, Cmd.exe.
Let me know if you have any issues, and thanks again <3
Thank you so much mate, always warms my heart to get comments on this dead game. It was once my baby and the depression when I lost it at first was immenese. I'd love to remake the concept in the future though haha!
I love the RNG, sometimes you get super lucky and sometimes you get it terrible but it's just the way of the wastes and you never know haha
I didn't know about this game believe it or not. I have played Warsim off and on and i can see original inspiration from this game. Its a shame the code was lost. I actually prefer this exploration style of play over running a kingdom play.
Just a couple of questions...
1) Charisma, Luck and Sneak has no values in the Skill points menu, i cannot level these up. is this because from failures you eventually get these skills? like with failing lock picking you can increase your skill, but also can do this when spending skill points too.
2) Are all the regions random? including number counter to clear them?
3) Are the levels of regions how hard the enemies will be to kill or difficulty across the board, eg. picking locks will be harder too etc
Hey mate, I loved the Wastes and appreciate the core gameplay loop more than Warsims personally too.
Unfortunately at the time I never expanded the skill trees, so only the skills with numbers next to them work in game.
As for the regions, yes they are all completely random but at game start the initial loadout are all lower level regions that are super small. This is to ensure the player doesn't instantly get killed off with a bad loadout. After that it's pure luck. There are perks that make it so you get a guarenteed higher minimum of regions to choose from but they are still random.
It's a mix of tougher spawns but also some encounters that are hidden for lower region levels, lockpicking is unchanged though.

I found a sort of exploit. The dude that allows you to make a blood weapon and roll ye olde die of disgrace and trade blood for coins, if you get the regen deal-io skill and you sell your blood for the highest amount and then go in and out of your inventory you will regen said lost HP, so you can then sell your blood again and again etc.
