Pioneers is a turn-based exploration/adventure RPG where you lead a party of travellers in search of treasure-rich temples, new tribes and ways to go down in history - ways to go beyond the horizon. To achieve all that you complete quests building up your reputation to become a sought out explorer by kings and commoners alike.You set out promising your father to become someone, to make him proud but not all goes like planned in life, does it? On the way you'll meet many interesting characters, solve challenging puzzles and face all that nature has to offer, be it finding and collecting food and building a shelter to survive harsh winters or facing against a pack of wolves in the densest of forests.The game is currently very much in progress but check below for playable builds. The game uses only 4 colors. Different seasons have different palettes with different set of colors. As to why, read here (Build 7, February 13 2015)For older builds see the game's website Occasionally my computer screen with literallydevelopments taking place on it appears on Twitch livestreamSome mentions of the game I've come across on the web: A indie game blog mention (in Russian, generated a lot of downloads)

Thanks!Everything is drawn at 2x for pixely sweetness, so is the map. I could draw it at 1x but then the single pixel resolution of the tiles clashes with 2px for everything else. So I'd rather not scale things. Also, the screenshots are 640x480, but you can have any size you want. The native resolution of my screen is 1280x800, so automatically I see a lot more at once. The thing not implemented yet is that the map is not initially visible, only the parts you've been to.

Looks nice, I'm looking forward to seeing how it will play. The whole 'pick a team of settlers, then go and start a colony' thing gives me a nice dwarf-fortressy vibe, although I'm guessing from the fact that it's turn based you'll have more control over the individual settlers?
