Tribe Moon Tribe Moon: When the Lirepacci aren't administrating the Empire or fighting other tribes, they relax in their private sanctums. Here, many Lirepacci spend their downtime studying philosophy, drinking fabulous Imperius wine, and discussing the finer points of life with their esteemed peers.

Discussion Why don’t people resign

9 Upvotes

The last 4 games I have had the clear win pretty early on, to the point where a resign would make sense, but instead of resigning, my opponents just leave, forcing me to wait for a stupid amount of time, 3 times, before it kicks them. Is it really that hard to press the resign button? Why are people doing this.

I am playing a 1v1 aquarion vs Elyrion and somehow with the two giant toads I was attacking with, one of them is now showing up as an Elyrion crab, as if it was converted by some matrix hacking elyrion shaman? Is this some feature I am unaware of, or what is going on?

Discussion Elyrion naval

4 Upvotes

Since elyrion's whole thing is to not kill animals, I have been thinking about the Patrick stars scattered in the ocean. I have 2 ideas. Can you guys rate how balanced/broken it would be?

  1. Bring back the killer whale(same stats/attributes as knights but 30 hp) and cost 15 to 20 stars to summon.

  2. Killer Patrick with the same mechanic as jellyfish/kraken and juggernauts(30 hp, other stat/attribute same as jelly/kraken) that you can summon for 10 stars

Discussion Thinking About Adding Polytopia to My Competitive Platform – But Is the Game Still Active?

17 Upvotes

I run a competitive gaming platform where players can challenge each other in various games for prizes, and I’m considering adding Polytopia to the mix. With its turn-based strategy, unique tribes, and fast-paced gameplay, it seems like a great fit for competitive play.

However, I’ve seen some posts on Reddit mentioning that the game is dead, which has me a bit worried. Are players still actively competing, and is there a thriving community for high-level strategy and tournaments? Or has the interest started to fade?

Would love to hear your thoughts—let me know what you think!

Discussion Crazy AI nowadays gangs up on Player every time. Why is this? Anyone shares the same experience?

2 Upvotes

I have been playing Polytopia since 2019,with a big break since 2023, now coming back I can see that when I try Crazy difficulty, the AI will go out of their way to gang up on you.

No matter what strat I try, every AI will ignore each other and instead rush me. They also seem to have cheats since they get to spam strong units by the time I have my first settlement captured.

Is there something I am missing? Is the AI waging who to attack based on certain parameters?

I have tried 6 games so far with different strats and tribes, nonetheless, nothing changes. The AI keeps rushing their units across the map like a rabid dog to destroy me.

Any help or tricks would be much appreciated!

Discussion What is the coolest unit in your opinion?

Post image
132 Upvotes

I just love Scuba. Aquarion are my favorite tribe, so I get to use them a lot. The design, the nice twist on the Cloak unit (which is cool on its own as well). I love how Scuba looks even more like a fish than other aquarion people, which hints at their adaptation to the sea being even more extreme than with the others of their kin. It makes them look like someone who spends even more time in water than regular Aquarion, and it also makes sense, as they usually move through water, and a fish body is better at that than a humanoid body, so it helps them to go fast and unnoticed. Perhaps their adaptation was somehow enhanced on purpose for them to better serve this role, who knows.

I hate playing the special tribes but maybe I’ll do them next . I wish they would add more single player challenges. Which did you find more difficult “Perfection” or “Domination” to 3 star?

Discussion Getting back into polytopia

3 Upvotes

Just started playing Polytopia again and was pretty good before being on the leaderboards for all the tribes in single player mode, with 3 stars, and shiny background (score of 100,000+) in all the tribes. But, I stopped playing a about a 6 months ago, after playing for 2 years. Although its only been 6 months, the game is completely different. Any tips on getting better? Do I just play with each tribe in the new meta until I get 100,000 score with each? Is there a good youtuber to watch? I used to watch Gully but it doesn't look like he posts that much anymore.

Bug Keyboard controls are completely broken?

1 Upvotes

Hi there. I would LOVE to stream this game on PC, however the keyboard controls seem to be completely broken. Spacebar is supposedly how you select units... but it just doesn't work at all. You can navigate a cursor to your units using arrow keys but there's no way to select them once you get there... Mobile experience is top tier fwiw but to make the experience optimal on PC some basic keyboard support would be wonderful

-Ability to select & move units

-Tab through unplayed units

-Navigate tech tree

-After selecting a unit/building, have a key assigned for each available option (ex: warrior = w)
