I wanted a game with alliance politics, heavy logistics, and real-time warfare on a persistent world map. So I’m building it. Iron Pact is now on Steam. Wishlist it if you want to follow the project 👇

If you like Heart of Iron, you'll like my game If you like Factorio, you'll like my game If you like Foxhole, you'll like my game

Automation is coming to Iron Pact! One of the features that I took a lot of time working on is Automation. My first similar game, PixelWar, had lots of problems related to player being attacked while offline, having lots of manual actions to do in this very heavy logistical game. That's why I worked a lot of Automation. I want this system to be strategical but not required to be able to play Iron Pact. I target 3 kind of players: - Diplomacy guy: Who will focus a lot on its alliances. - Strategy guy: Who will focus more on the STR aspect of the game. - Factory guy: Who will love the automation system. The three kind of players are important to have in an efficient Alliance, it's as much important to have a good leader, than having good strategic people and being able to automate most of the alliance logistical tasks ! This features allows also players to translate their political doctrines into real-life rules, that are automatically applied through Automation. Automation allows you to control -nearly- everything in your empire, from units, to building productions, constructions, attack, logistical routes, logistical networks, and so on! Think of it as Factorio circuits, but enhanced and simplified. This is the master feature before release for Iron Pact, I am finishing it, and then will start to refine the final release for Iron Pact, it's a major mile stone and I am very proud of the advancement on this game. Hopefully players will love this new automation system and we'll see interesting usages of it when the game will be released. If Iron Pact sounds like a game that might suit you, please add it to your steam wishlist, it helps us a lot! store.steampowered.com/app/3456700/Ir…

@AlmanaxWinch J'espère que ça va plaire 🤞

@AlexMog_FR Je reconnais un concept rigolo qui avance

Iron Pact: Coming soon. Wishlist on steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3456700/Ir…

@MrDougFresh @albiononline Played since the first beta, not the same kind of game tho 😬

@AlexMog_FR Play @albiononline

I wanted an MMO where alliances matter, with heavy logistics, and real-time warfare on a persistent world map. So I’m building it. A persistent world. Real players. Real strategy. Real consequences. Iron Pact is now on Steam. Wishlist it if you want to follow the project 👇

@BrigandineBgd It's a blend between Hearts of Iron, Factorio and Fox hole tbh, they've all been inspirations for me and I love them. And yea, in an MMO format :)

@AlexMog_FR So basically a multiplayer hearts of iron

@AltariusEti Great question, depends on the player's profile. My own player profile is more interested by Supply lines as an example.

@AlexMog_FR The logistics angle is what makes this interesting. In strategy games, do you think players care more about alliances, supply lines, or map control???

@ParishStoner The game was designed so there's no real "Wins" possible, it is made to be persistent. The only "win" possible is to have enough alliances to make the world "stable", but highly improbable :), and if so, I'll find solutions for it haha :)

@AlexMog_FR a persistent world map so what happens if someone actually wins? Restart?

@SMthegamer1 AI is mainly used for internal tools and marketing materials Most of the game code is handmade, I mainly use auto-complete from AI in Cursor

@AlexMog_FR Sounds like a fun idea, you mention using AI for code in the disclosure. To what extent was it used? Getting flashbacks to that multiplayer minesweeper security risk a few years back.

That's Iron Pact, a new free-to-play persistent online strategy MMO from solo dev AlexMog. It's focused on territory control, supply lines, fragile alliances, and real-time warfare on a player-driven world map. Just hit Steam for wishlist – release coming soon. store.steampowered.com/app/3456700/Ir…

@gabriel1843325 ça arrivera plus tard, je regarde comment pouvoir le fournir sur mac sans que ça post trop de soucis !

@AlexMog_FR moi jattend toujour ca sur mac

@Backala_ Oui, on est inspiré en partie par Foxhole, néanmoins Foxhole se concentre sur le fait d'avoir son propre personnage, dans Iron Pact,tu contrôles une faction entière, on est beaucoup plus sur de la stratégie classique,mais à grande échelle !

@AlexMog_FR Tu connais FoxHole ?

@preamsxx92 Les images pour la publicité oui, le jeu en lui même non (malheureusement je suis seul développeur sur le jeu, et je fais avec les moyens du bord pour la com')

@AlexMog_FR Ca été fait avec ia

@VeganRScum We are indeed inspired by Foxhole, the big difference here is that in foxhole, you control only your own character, in Iron Pact, you control a complete faction. Iron pact is more centered around alliances and big strategy gameplay

@AlexMog_FR Already exists it called foxhole on steam.

@rufus1eth Thanks ! :)

@AlexMog_FR wow bro, rly serious builder here

@TheLionofEuropa Not planned for now, but maybe later, if there's demand for it

@AlexMog_FR Is there a chance it will have a single-player mode one day?

@x_Ai_Cat_x Will try to !

@AlexMog_FR Just make it better than conflict of nations please. (Supremacy ww3 now, because they're stupid and merged with a money hungry company)

@Greenboat6 We are indeed inspired by foxhole, but our game model is not the same, iron pact is a strategy game where you command a full army, foxhole you only control your own character

@AlexMog_FR That game already exists, it's called Foxhole.

@LeTortillas Je n'ai malheureusement pas connu march of war donc je ne pourrais pas confirmer qu'on est similaire ou non, en tout cas on fait notre possible pour rendre le jeu intéressant !

@AlexMog_FR Je sais pas si vous avez connu March Of War, le studio et le jeu ont depuis fermé. C'était une expérience à vivre, ça me manque Si votre jeu y ressemble je risque d'y passer ma vie

@gabriel1843325 c'est prévu un peu plus tard !

@AlexMog_FR stp met le disponible sur apple pour que je puisse y jour car ca a la'air vraiment bien
