== Development goals ==
https://img.itch.zone/aW1hZ2UvMTAzNzU1LzE4ODEzNjEucG5n/original/rg4Kqa.png
There are many development goals for the game's future. Chief among them are a stronger trade and economy aspect to the game, randomly generated adventurer parties who will enrich the world and create long and interesting tales based on their adventures, crime and punishment with gangs, guards and guillotines, and randomly generated religions and gods with all kinds of perks, cults, and fanatics.


The biggest goal of all is that far down the development line when the development of the kingdom management game is finished, there will be a second game developed. This second game will be more of an RPG, where the player will exist in the world he would have ruled. The game will let the player live within the kingdom and explore the land, with the prospect of becoming strong enough to rule a kingdom of their own. They may work their way up the political ladder, or perhaps capture a territory from a weak group and expand it with a large number of follwers. Though this will be far in the future, it will hopefully add a much stronger dynamic to the game.
Here we have a character called Cedarcrown, who is the ruler of a randomly generated kingdom of swamp treemen
