Yet another "almost" Galcon clone

Post by bladum »

Hi,

I would like to share small prototype i made. Lets call it Galcon clone. But actually this is not Galcon. This suppose to be tactical / slow paced / customized game.

Instructions:
LMB = select planet
RMB = pick target planet for currently selected planet
space = turbo mode ON / OFF
8 buttons below = upgrade planets (capacity, growth, income, defense power) and ship (speed / range / attack power / production speed).

The bigger planet the more upgrades possible. This is the most important feature. That is why there is no multi-select of all planets. This is not arcade game after all. There will be global resource $$$ that will be used to upgrade planets and change ships orders so no 200 clicks per minute :) It will further limits possible moves to force tactics instead of speed.

PS: Code is a huge mess, i know. I just wrote it.

Regards
Tom

Are you supposed to be able to reassign planets, and an AI would be nice.
(I'm also not sure what the bottom buttons actually do, or what they cost)

actually reassignment of planet means you can upgrade them in what ever combo you like

long range ship + fast ships
high capacity + high defense
high grow + high production
high ship attack + high growth

etc...
