Screenshot of the Age of Empires 2 Three Kingdoms DLC, with a Wei faction building that shares similar features to the Tongquetai.
Tongquetai ιιε° AKA. "Bronze Bird Terrace" from episode 45 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms 1994

It really speaks for the sheer longevity of the Tongquetai set they built for 1994 Three Kingdoms show that I can still see its silhouette in this Age of Empires 2 DLC (and like a bazillion other Chinese media since 1994)

It's totally fine for the art style. The texture you're using on the water itself looks a bit like a blurry texture, maybe you can find something that looks more vectorized to fit the lowpoly look of the terrain.

Skalierung geht nur 100% (viel zu klein) oder 200% (viel zu groΓ). Trotzdem tolles Game, aber fΓΌr ein 100β¬ oder 130β¬ Produkt echt kritisch.

I've been calling it "tangential learning" - picked up the term a decade ago. Games can spark an interest in a topic, and players read up on their new interest in books.
When I studied history, a lot of my fellow students did so because of Civ, Age or the Total War series.
So inspiring that the video games we make have an impact outside of the medium.
That being said, can't wait to dive into Civ with the Shawnee in a few days π

Age of Empires box art isn't too well credited, so now's probably as good a time as any to share this one. Here's the box art painting for the first AoE expansion Rise of Rome, painted by C. Winston Taylor, an artist known for his movie poster and VHS box art in the 70s and 80s #ageofempires
