PAX BRITANNICA

One-button real-time strategy.

=> Download the compo version HERE <=
(Windows only for now, Mac and Linux versions coming soon...)





We'll be working on a final version with (hopefully) SFX, better game balance and AI.

Keyboard controls : A, F, H and L for respectively player 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Otherwise if you have 1 to 4 Xbox controllers connected, their A button will work.

For more info check out the readme!

one button real time strategy? oh my.

[JamesGecko]

How does?...

But what?...

Huh. I can think of a single possible control scheme which might work for that, a grid-based system. Either that or something sorta similar Herzog Zwei?

[Pishtaco]

Hold button to boom, release button to rush?

[brog]

And tap to turtle?

Looking forward to seeing how this works. I had couple of ideas for an RTS, but we never went with them.

My first idea for gamma 4 was an rts

I´m curious about this.

[Zaknafein]

Alright so, we didn't get in either.
I just updated the first post with the version we sent to Kokoromi, enjoy!

Though I'm sad we weren't chosen, working on this game was a blast. Big thanks to the organizers!

I very much dig this game.

I like cap-ship battles, and I like things that go boom, so you got me right off the bat.

Even though audio wasn't a requirement, the sfx and soundtrack are great. Very good mood-setting to match the pace of the motherships.

My only critique would be to put in more feedback as to the health of all ships and the capabilities of the various fighters/destroyers.

Absolutely wonderful game! It opens up so many possibilities of other games with a similar interface.

However, everytime i press escape to end the game, my computer bluescreens and reboots. Can you tell me what package I might want to get the latest patch for?

[nihilocrat]

Holy fuuuuuuuuuuck that is a clever control system. The number of games I need to play with some friends keeps adding up.

[tembac]

Very good idea on the game. I also liked the mechanics. I agree that it needs more information on the health of the ships and the different ships. Also, sometimes is hard for colorblinds to diferentiate them.

That's really good. A 4-player game comfortably playable on one keyboard is a wonderful thing.

I've played a few games with all numbers of players but I don't really have any idea on what the good strategies are, or even if there are any. Although going for resource generation early on in a 2 player game seems like a bad idea.

I quite enjoyed that!  It's sotra like Gratuitous Space Battles, only fun   Excellent design for a one stratagy game.  The graphics and music are great too.  Congrats.
