Lost Eden is a total conversion for Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire. It completely transforms the game from its original, futuristic environment to a strange fantasy world filled with all sorts of unusual characters. This is the alpha version. It's pretty complete, missing only some artwork and sound. After I have recieved some feedback and have everything ready, I'll release a beta version good and proper!
Lost Eden takes a "Less is more" approach. Some of the more complex gameplay mechanics have been changed or removed to allow for a truly different gameplay experience. If you're wondering what makes Lost Eden so different from Alien Crossfire take a look at this short list of some of the more dramatic changes:
* It's a new world! Instead of poking about Chiron with a bunch of Mind Worms, you're in the weird and wonderful world of Lost Eden. How did you get here? What's going to happen? You decide.
* Fourteen new factions to try.
* Lead using five different species of units.
* All units in Lost Eden are predesigned rather than using the workshop.
* Transcendence victory has been removed. All other forms of victory--conquest, economic, diplomatic--remain.
* Most advanced terraforming improvements (boreholes, condensers, etc.) have been removed.
But that's just the start! Dive in and explore for yourself what makes Lost Eden interesting for you!
