RTS Mythbuster: Itโ€™s not just StarCraft or Age of Empires. Real-time strategy games span much moreโ€”like Pikmin and Tooth & Tail, which focus on tight unit control, or Forts, a PvP base-building game. The RTS genre is wider and more creative than it gets credit for.

What's your fav RTS game?

๐Ÿง  Crafting human-like AI for skirmish mode has been a blast!

With heatmap + behaviour visualisers (shown on a screenshot), we track where each faction poses a threatโ€”and what chaos super units are planning.

Tools make tactics visible.

D.O.T. Defence isnโ€™t just strategyโ€”itโ€™s a universe with lore.

H.U.E. was where nations met to keep peace, but everything changed after the power of Chroma was discovered, plunging the world into conflict.
