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 23 - UI changes, building changes, fixes, and more

*NOTE - this update has been republished with a hotfix for older computers. So you may notice a second download.

Hi all,

Update 23 is now available for Windows and Mac. The update for Linux is pending an engine update before I can publish it.

The update is not as big as I wanted it to be, but I decided to push it out instead of delaying it further.

New Bits

New filter on hiring menu so you can exclude people who work for you already.
New action menu, is now a list instead of radial.
You can now make love outside of marriage, but babies cannot be produced this way (yet).
You can now force an automated building to produce set items.
AI businesses can now request resources when they see fit. This is done via their carts. This replaces the previous feature where households could request resources.
New Forge building.
New Butcher building.
Another round of new foliage and scene props.
Various changes to some of the buildings.

Other

Various fixes to the Outlaw system.
Kids can now dance near the player when playing the lute.
Changes to the entertainment skill to make it more viable.
Fixes to navigation system.
Various small UI changes (still WIP).
Your character walking animation will now load correctly when you load a saved game.
Various fixes to needs and heath system.
Increased the range at which a cart is detected by a building.
Fixed some instances where horses would not go to a stable and block a doorway.
Fixed an issue where some of the skills associated with your selected backstory do not apply.
Declaring a friend as an Outlaw will now work as expected.
Church sermons will work again.
A lot of code changes that should improve performance in some situations.
The reworked foliage comes with a major update to the entire foliage system, which should improve performance in some cases.

You may also notice a few other bits here and there that are not listed. I was planning on including some other new buildings in this update, but those will come in the next one.

Happy holidays!

Stardog.
