About this game
Description
Supplied by the Steam store
With the power of a god, who will you become?
In Fata Deum you build settlements and compete with other gods for influence. The more followers you have, the more power you wield.
You can lift mortals into the air, toss them around for fun, or guide them with care and help them thrive. Whether you're a warm-hearted deity, a cold-hearted tyrant, or something in between, your playstyle shapes the world. The environment reacts to your actions, becoming bright and beautiful or dark and corrupted.
Mortals will respond to your presence. They’ll pray, plead, and ask for help—or punishment. Grant their wishes, smite them for disobedience, or... just kick them in the butt. Your actions shape not only the world, but your followers' very behaviour.
That’s all too nice? Sacrifice them to summon a mortal or kill them and use their corpses to resurrect some zombies! Steal their energy to get more mana or sacrifice the weak to boost one of your strong warriors. You have many options!
During the day, use your influence on the mortals. Will you bless and inspire them onto good work, or strike fear into their hearts with terrifying visions? But be wary, the townsfolk have their own free will.
At night, you can manipulate settlements. Instruct the mortals to build you mighty temples for worship, farms and lumber mills so that they may prosper, or even to ruin other villages.
Perhaps you’d like to be a tyrant, ruling over a kingdom of debauchery and blood. Raise an army and sacrifice your mortals to summon terrifying demons. Your choice.
Or maybe you do believe in fun, festivities and spreading the love, but have no qualms weakening your enemies by spreading fear - or just hitting them with a Thunderstrike.
Shape a living world
As your influence grows, the living world will shape around it, getting ever more vast. Each god manifests their kingdom differently.
Will yours be a kingdom of crops and light, or twisted trees and glowering darkness? You’ll battle gods of Violence, Deceit, Fertility and Pleasure.
Experience your story
Master different challenges set by the goddesses of fate themselves and write your own story as a young deity who grows up to fame and honor.

Fata Deum | Patch 16 | Biggest Change To The Game’s Feel Since Launch | Out Now
Patch 16 is now available for everyone on the Default Branch! This major patch brings a lot of improvements and changes, including the biggest change to how the game feels since launch! There is one thing you told us again and again: you wanted to feel like a god, not operate one.So, we took the single most important object in the game — the thing that sits between you and your world — and rebuilt it from the ground up. The mouse pointer (and the imp) is gone! In its place is your hand: a fully realized divine hand that reaches into the world, grabs, points, throws, gathers, and burns with the power you are about to unleash.And miracles no longer happen somewhere out there. They happen because you did them, right now, with that hand. No menus standing in the way, no indirection, no delay between intent and impact. Charge it, aim it, hold it, release it.The result is a game that feels...

Hello again! We’re back after another break, this time because we were focused on organizational matters. We’ve hired four additional staff members (three software developers and one level designer). We needed some time to train up and become productive. And, wow - have we been productive 🙂 Level Design Nico, our level designer, first learned how to work with our tools and to understand what is a feature and what is a bug in our very customized level designing toolchain. After some teething issues at the beginning, he's become very productive quite fast. And below are the first results of a skirmish map for up to four gods: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/9f39a11e4ae3a176dc382b9fd4322fb3298ba235.jpg The new four gods map is ready for action! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/5689d096c6adf61fce9a618886495ffc7b4e612e.jpg Many mortals available! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38910396/b0ba902b7fb9bee6a984a76...
Read full update on Steam ↗Development Update: Release Schedule, Steam Next Fest and AI
We are sorry for being silent over the last months, but after the very intense time at the begin of the year (publisher deal and Steam Next Fest), we decided to calm down a bit, check the feedback, take a breath, check the feedback again, talk to our brand-new publisher, sit back, check the feedback again, do some planning, talk to the publisher and continue to work 😊 Based on the feedback and the possibility to get access to additional budget (via our publisher) we decided that increasing the team size, especially for software development, would be the best step for the project. To achieve this, we needed to change things organizational and code-wise. So currently we are still in this transformational process while improving the AI in the meantime (code-aspects are really high-priority right now). As AI improvements or the mentioned organizational aspects are quite difficult to demo...
