Power of Planets - Earth (Civ like game)

[auth.gabor]

Power of Planets - Earth (formerly known as GaCivs) is a free-to-play MMO-RTS variant based on FreeCiv. The ruleset was devised to support long-term time-based gameplay instead of turn-based strategy.

Through that I can see they've got a facebook group (not so active):

And a Discord (still active):

I might go say hi and let them know we're covering their excellent work!

EDIT: Looks like our resident CivFanatic @WildWeazel found the discord before me and started a conversation with the main developer that reveals some interesting info about this project. It's actually a full reimplementation of FreeCiv in Unity. Impressive!

As another 4X dev I was interested to see how you integrated FreeCiv with Unity and a real time engine

I've not integrated the FreeCiv with Unity, I've completely reimplemented it, I tried to modify FreeCiv servers to time based instead of turn based but turns out it will be virtually impossible. So, it based on the ruleset and assets and the client is open-source.
