Forbidden World Rts

[gruso]

I dropped in to the unofficial German blog (http://today.openpandora.org/), and the latest post is talking about an RTS called Forbidden World. The English translation helped a little, from what I can tell the game is still in development and might be a possible Pandora title down the track.

All I can say for sure, is that it looks awesome.





So, could a kind German speaker fill us in on the details? I'm interested in what they're saying in the forum posts linked in the article.

Thanks in advance.

The devs did consider a Pandora version - but at the moment, they think the Pandora doesn't have enough RAM...

The English translation of the article is as follows:

A new wallpaper and a little info for real-time player by Screeny at 22.Jan, 2009, under the rumors and more, advertising:

Times when I start the real game:
The senior programmer of "Sechsta sense," said a few hours to a special version of the game "Forbidden World" on the Pandora:
This game is a real-time strategy game for Linux systems. According to the programmer it is perfectly possible for a version of the Pandora program.
Schade, however, that the main game is not yet finished, but the screenshots are promising:
Edit: Please note the comments!
Edit2: The user who is familiar with the program had in contact, asking for your help! Writes in the official forum of "Forbidden World" to it for a port on the Pandora seid Also praising the programmer could help

Sorry but my German is real bad - the translation suggests to me anyways that the Forbidden World game is out there for Linux systems but needs some work for the Pandora. Thats what I understand from it anyway :blink:

Ah, thanks ED. A bit disappointing to hear, but I'm still enjoying staring into the artwork anyway. So good looking.

I almost went out on a limb and posted it on the wordpress blog today. Lucky I didn't.


RajTakhar - yeah, I did the auto-translate thing myself, but it's not very good as you found out. I was more after a description of the project in a nutshell (and what some of the Pandora related chat might have been).

Wir nutzen schon 128+ MB VRAM komplett und nochmal 512+ MB Hauptspeicher, je nach Map, Videos, etc. Das Spiel ist nunmal für Desktops/Notebooks entwickelt worden, die schon zu Anfangszeiten 512+ MB Speicher hatten.


They need 512MB(or more) RAM plus 128MB(or more) VRAM.
The game isn't optimized for a small footprint.

You don´t have to buy it. It is freeware.
