Medieval warfare is usually won by blood. Here, it's won by equestrian care, PvP, and... marriage?
Warentines is a multiplayer online co-op game, where 3v3 teams fight for the throne. The MVP will become the new monarch and can choose to marry anyone, even the enemy!
If this sounds like the kind of chaos you'd enjoy with your friends, please hit that Wishlist button above! It helps the Steam algorithm find my little game and tells me that people actually want to play it!
THE STORY
The King of the Horse Kingdom has passed. The next in line isn't chosen by blood, but by the approval of the Royal Horses.
With ample care, the horses will bestow upon their chosen a Warrior or a Coin to win the war. Two houses fight for the crown.
If you become the new monarch, will you marry your loyal teammate or your sworn enemy (who you have a secret crush on)? <3
HORSE HUSBANDRY
Peasants don't have private armies. To build one, you have to serve the true masters: the horses.
Teamwork Required: The royal horses roam free. One must pet the horse to keep it still, while the other aims a physics-based throw to feed it apples.
Evolve: Feed a horse with green, red, or yellow apples to evolve them into different humanoid warrior classes.
The Poop Economy: Some horses process food differently. Feed the Golden Horse and it will poop out coins. (Yes, really).
PvP COMBAT
Wishing Well: Throw your hard-earned poop coins into the well to try your luck for a mighty sword.
Sabotage: Use your fists or a sword to smack enemies away from horses!
Body Block: No weapon? No problem. Use your body to bump enemy players (or annoy your teammates) out of the way.
PvE STRATEGY
Defend: Some enemy evolved horses are aggressive! They will march down the lane to attack you and your base.
Push: Escort your own aggressive evolved units to destroy the enemy base.
THE WEDDING (RUIN YOUR FRIENDSHIPS)
This is where friendships are tested. Destroying the enemy base will trigger the Wedding Phase.
The MVP of the winning team becomes the new Monarch and gets two Crowns. They wear one, then must throw the other crown to choose a spouse.
Total Annihilation: Marry a teammate. The whole team splits the rewards equally.
Star-Crossed Lovers: Betray your team and marry an Enemy Player. You and your new spouse take almost all the loot. Your old teammates get crumbs.
Objections: Teammates can physically block the crown throw or pick it up and throw it to another teammate. They can forcefully choose your spouse for you!
