Hi 2 all again, I am doing a simple web browser game based / inspired by Civ4 + RFC.
http://zeusthetruegod.github.com/civ4-chronics/
The idea is that is a fully open source game (every one can contribute with images, unit resources, scenarios, maps, ...) . Map is fixed size, 15X10 and it is expected to refer to small scenarios related to large civ4 parties. Simplified rules, should take 10-15 minutes and so on.
One of scenario could be Ierusalim capturing or defending some coastal cities against Portugeese.
max 50 turns, I guess.
Advantages:
- no vendor lock in. (Planned) Create scenario, publish it anywhere you like (just fork my project on a githib, for example), add/edit tiles, improvements, units. Feel free to add 'donate' button to the scenario or even make it private
-Requires only the modern browser to play. Play anywhere, probably there will be an IPad/IPhone/Android version
-Fast. Scenario should not take more than 15 minutes to play. Civ4 RFC parties took at least a day
-Simple rules.
-Probably extension model. If you know javascript you can add any feature you like (as well as just fork the project on github and add your own parts)
-Me as programmer
If someone is interested in participating - I will help as much as possible. 100$ for best map/scenarios, for example.
The project itself is here - https://github.com/ZeusTheTrueGod/civ4-chronics
