Ancient beast

Dread Knight

I have a free open source turn based strategy game project that works from the browser. It's pretty easy to learn, fun, intensive and it's one of those games that takes a lifetime to master, also it's one of the very few tbs games that doesn't rely on chances crap. http://www.AncientBeast.com

Deciding on a forum software atm, thought I would make a test topic around here about the project; source available on https://github.com/FreezingMoon/AncientBeast
I'm always keeping an eye out for contributors ^^ the website chat page leads to #AncientBeast on Freenode server, feel free to hang around.

Bummer, seems I can't edit first post or delete it to make new one.

You can't edit the first post? That seems like a major problem... can you edit it now?

@Julian I edit and basically nothing happens when I hit Submit. Same old post when I refresh.

@psychobunny It's playable from the website, you need to go to Game page and click that button to launch it. Next website version will make that more obvious as other games that aren't browser based have a big Play Now button, lol
There's no online multiplayer for now, so I'm using www.teamviewer.com to test out most recent development version with people willing to, usually doing voice chat over skype.

@dove working with quite a few people, looking for more contributors on a constant basis, will definitely scale things up in the near future. Nice you found it, I kinda need to guide people through that which is not very good xD

Couldn't edit previous comment...

So if anyone is willing to test the game out with me, my skype is dk.vali or let me know what works best for you in terms of IM; a match takes about 30-40 minutes versus someone new and I'm definitely looking out for reactions or where people stumble and other feedback so I can improve the game.

@dread knight when you release the next version next week you could post information about it on clanhubcommunity.com with screenies or video of game-play if you want.
