Never heard of it, definitely will give it a try. Would like to know how can I donate to the dev team!
It’s a really good game. Check it out!
I FUCKIN LOVE RTS THIS IS DOPE
anyone interested in RTs also chechout tza.red it’s the RTs game Tzar that came out in 2000 but with multiplayer and some good qol stuff. Run by good people and has a little community.
Idk how to make a link on lemmy but type tza.red in your address bar like the your ancestors used to.
Another great RTS is 0 A.D.. It’s more or less Age of Empires meets Empire Earth.
Fair warning, the AI is brutal. You probably want to set that to the easiest difficulty, and maybe even get an AI ally for your first game…
Added to my list cool game.
My friend group has been having a lot of fun with Beyond All Reason. Also free/open source RTS
“Timber!”
I remember playing this some years ago…it was a lot of fun. Back then the “Atlantis” (I think…not sure, its been some years) campaign wasn’t completely finished so maybe time to give it another shot :).
That looks amazing, thanks for sharing sag!
Wargus is a wicked reimplimentation of the Warcraft 2 engine
Sweet! Another RTS to add to my collection!
The Battle for Wesnoth is also a great free turn based strategy game
On a related, is there a list of good open source strategy games? I’m especially interested in grand strategy.
- 0 A.D.
- Warzone 2100
- Mega glest.
You’ll not be disappointed
0AD is FOSS Age of Empires, yeah?
In the same spirit, yeah. It has a pretty active community from what I’ve heard.
I’m not sure if it’s a grand strategy game, but Freeciv is similar to older Civ games.
That being said, Beyond All Reason (BAR) and Zero-k are Total Annihilation inspired and have a lot of work put in them. Definitely worth a try!
Kinda like civilization?
No, like Settlers. Civ is turn-based. Edit: If you’re looking for a free version of Civ, the FreeCiv (PC) and UnCiv (Android) may interest you.
Never played settlers so I went with something I had.
Well, they’re similar in the widest sense, that they’re both strategy games, you have to produce resources and fight battles to capture land.
But within the strategy genre, they’re actually pretty different. Civilization is turn-based, Widelands/Settlers is real-time strategy. I guess, the latter is at least still relatively slow-paced.
Widelands/Settlers puts a lot more focus on managing supply chains. To produce bread, you’ll need a baker, which needs flour and water, and possibly coal, so you need a mill and a farm and a well and a coal mine, and then you need people to actually carry the resources between the buildings, and yeah, it starts to become pretty busy pretty quickly.
If you ask fans of these games, that’s kind of what they love the most, that your settlement starts to look like an anthill buzzing with activity in no time.
Cool!
I misread that and thought Wayland went in a very different direction for a second.
As soon as I saw the screenshot I thought about Age of Empire, anybody else?
How many hours didn’t I spend on that fabulous game?!
