FEATURES
Machine Learning
Face off against AI agents or traditional scripted opponents in single-player simulations. The coded bot features a challenging but predictable outcome, where the machine learning agent allows for more dynamic play styles that will be improved in future updates.
It's learning, are you?
Real World Stats
Utilizing census data around the world, Web Wars balances 4 nations in a competitive real-time war simulation. Become the "President" and lead your nation to victory while managing population, military, GDP, and assets.
Per-Country Upgrades
Every country is given 2 upgrades specific to their country, providing a unique playstyle and strategy depending on a countries GDP, Military, Population, and potential upgrades. Not all upgrades are created equal, however.
Blow The Deficit
Fortify GDP to generate more assets relative to your countries population. Blow the deficit to receive slightly less than the upgrade's cost in return. You control the economy of your country.
Hacking
Launch sophisticated cyber-warfare attacks, causing a range of abnormalities such as asset theft, Power-Grid failure, or in rare cases detonating an enemies nuclear bomb in it's silo.
Per-Country Hacks
Each country utilizes a country-specific hack that while costly, often leads to devastating consequences for your opponent.

Hello World. The response to Web Wars has been incredible. Thank you to everyone who has helped playtest, review, and shape Web Wars into what it has become. Notice a bug? Want to recommend a feature? https://discord.gg/uYrmNFmwax Join our community and let me know your thoughts I have been hard at work on a new project, more to come soon. If you like the economy management of Web Wars, you are going to love what's in store UPDATE 1.2.3 BOT OVERHAUL Feature Updates: Easy, Medium, and Hard coded bot difficulties have been added. Games should go much faster now in singleplayer Easy: simple strategy, only targets 1 city at a time, capable but exploitable Medium: Can target 3 cities at a time, generally the intended way to experience Web Wars solo Hard: No targeting limit, max economy generation based on a countries economic strategy, with an inhuman reaction time that provides a true challenge. The Defcon heavy attack timer is recommended for those looking to face it. Some strategies permit very early win conditions if not carefully answered or prevented Bug Fixes: Corrected time-scale from 20+ to 1 (sfx and game logic was running at 20x speed. Caused a lot of weird visual glitches on main menu from leftover training code)Read full article on Community Announcements (Jellyman0613)AnnouncementsOfficial
