[h1][b]100K WARSIMMERS![/b][/h1] So starting this off with a [b]HOLY MOLY WARSIM HAS HIT 100K COPIES ON STEAM[/b]. This is insane. I made a little video for this announcement [previewyoutube=KIZ1aNbM4Y0;full][/previewyoutube] But to summarise, after 9 years we've finally crossed this awesome milestone and recently seen that there's no signs of stopping yet for Warsim. It's been magical seeing so much life all over the Warsim community spaces, to see new videos and articles going up, and to see so many new reviews. My dms have been flooded but I'm trying to work my way through them every day so if you're waiting on a reply give me time :) To all our new Warsimmers, welcome aboard and thank you for contributing to the biggest moment in Warsim's history (so far), and to you guys who've been along for the ride, thanks for building Warsim up so it could reach this point. I'm thankful for you all everyday! <3 [h1][b]THE COLLECTORS EDITION ANNOUNCEMENT[/b][/h1] After years of it being just a concept or a theory, the Warsim collectors edition is now live! I've tried to build it with the same passion and love that went into the game itself!

Never intended to be a game, now a massive massive monster file of so many spinning parts. A marvel that it works at all, and over 100k people have played it now, which is so insane to me. For a long time, before Warsim even, I dreamed of making RPGS, they're my true love. Always seeking the perfect rpg, I've been working for more than half a year on the side on something else with a talented coder, and already something promising is shaping up. But it is likely going to take years, and I am still looking for good programmers who work with GML (if you know some, hit ya boi up!) We also had this absolutely epic Warsim meme video pop up recently! [previewyoutube=V-zQx1PpnTw;full][/previewyoutube] It's been beautiful watching all of Warsims community spaces explode, this was a lovely moment where I got avalanched with love on the discord [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29372563/13c4912ecc5f5b10ffde7130305e1fa295e369ca.png[/img] Thank you as always to all you beautiful people who made this possible, to all the commentors, to all the new [url=https://discord.gg/YyFAkry98w]discord[/url] joiners, to those leaving reviews good or bad! Thank you all. Cheers and take care, Huw <3
