SÆLIG

(Old English: blessed, fortunate, prosperous, happy)
880 A.D.
England.
At its core SÆLIG is a trading and management game centred around the accumulation of wealth, and the prosperity of your household. You will be in charge of managing the life and affairs of a young Anglo-Saxon in the kingdom of Wessex, a kingdom at constant war with Vikings. It is in this world that you must find a way to thrive, and make a name for your family.
SÆLIG also incorporates many role-playing and simulation features, including: relationships, buffs, skills, health, missions, needs, character based interactions, and direct character control.
There are numerous ways you can live your life, each one brings both risk and reward

Find love, and start a family.
Start a business, hire workers, and produce the goods that people need, as well as luxury items.
Make your fortune by trading between towns.
Head a gang of thieves and take what you want.
Sabotage your competition and monopolize goods.
Accept and carry out missions to deliver goods around the map.

Some other key features

A living, breathing world, where each character is trying to survive and prosper.
Each character has their own life from start to finish and has the potential to shape the world around them, just like you.
Live through several generations – when you die, you can continue as your one of your children.
Dynamic seasons and weather that affects the world around you.
Lots of different types of buildings to purchase and upgrade.
Fires and diseases have the potential to not only decimate your home, but also towns and villages all over the map.
Living economy - nothing simply exists, everything is made and consumed by the population.

SÆLIG is not feature complete and at this point there is currently no construction or land ownership, instead you can only buy buildings. These features will be added once I have fleshed out other base mechanics.
(Linux version coming after initial release)

Update #15 - Some new things, some changed things, and some fixed things

Howdy all,

Update #15 is ready to go. Nothing huge, but we're getting there.

New things and changed things

Added additional detail to some notifications.
Marriage acceptance has been further enhanced to take into account more aspects of the player's life and situation.
Starting a new game will now produce a much better balance of young and old people. No longer will you be stuck with lots of old folks.
A few changes to the coat system, the AI should now be smarter about wearing them.
You can now choose to purchase a building without any employees.
You may notice an influx of new families when you load a saved game. This is the result of a few systems working better.
Slight optimisations to saving and loading.
More new props added.
Testing the waters with a couple new UI designs. Still a lot of placeholder UI, and even some of the new UI is still placeholder.

Fixed things

Fixed a bug that could result in extra items if you were working in your business when the shift ended.
Fixed a bug that would cause characters to reset if you followed them.
Carts should no longer be stranded for days out in the forest after a waylay.
A lot of bug fixes for the family tree. Kids from new marriages, previous marriages, and grown up kids, they should all display properly now.
Animal data should now load correctly, which means your dog's name will now stay the same.
Fixes to some incorrect price data for the meat produced from small carcasses.
A bunch of other small bug fixes.

That's all for now folks.

Cheers,
Stardog.
