  DSS has become the world's largest peer-to-peer multiplayer game! “Don't do it!” - that was the advice I got from my programmer friends, but DSS is a game about dreaming big!What do you say?

• Introducing the Pin system - 25 June 2026

  Hello my lords and ladies! This is my “I am still alive”-update. Multiplayer update progressI had some testers run the multiplayer and it has been running great, except some bugs here and there. There have been some mixed opinions on the “Gifted awards”, they are a very odd achievement system - you will see. But I still believe in it. I will add the option to opt out of any multiplayer achievements to keep everyone happy.What I have left to work on is just a hundred little small bugs and optimizations.Release is still planned for August. It feels like every big game in history is releasing in September, so the pressure is on! Pin locationsPins are a new feature that will be released with the multiplayer update. They are designed to have several uses. You can ping locations for other players. Or use it as reminders/communication for yourself and your team. Both text and icons can be atta…

• I bundled with my favorite game - 28 May 2026

  Multiplayer is planned to release in AugustThe network solution is a bit unorthodox, since the game is way too large to use any established techniques.It uses a mix of server-to-peer and peer-to-peer networking. The player who starts the map will host the game and its bots. All other players will host their own cities and armies to minimize any feeling of lag.Players share their camera view with each other and only send updates for items in view.The network is designed to handle information to be sent in a scrambled order and be pieced together by the receiver.This is so the multi-core processes are able to send information, without having to wait for a sync-up. Plus, the game doesn’t have to resend old information during packet loss.You can drop in and out of the game at any time. New players will replace a fitting bot faction.A theoretical limit of 64 players. I don't recommend playin…
