I'll keep multiplayer in mind, but I can promise nothing there.

No problem Smiley Anyway, keep up the good work. And I agree about the graphics. Gameplay is what's important.

I fear that I'll never be able to Google that name or search for it with the forum's search bar if I want to. At least if I do manage to remember the name, it'll probably appear high on the search results (this thread already appears on the first page of the Google search results for "Aftokratoria tou Iliou").

while some amazing looking (ambitious, exciting) projects on this board get ignored or slated.  Shrug

It's not like this board is more deserving of games that have better graphics.
This is a board for people with aspiring projects and ideas that they want to share with the community. And Madk's idea is no less worth sharing than mine or yours. Aye? Smiley That's how I see it.

I don't disagree with you at all... I just don't understand all the excitement over this project, when there are plenty of amazing things which seem to be completely ignored.
I don't get it, that's all.

So is just Iliou suitable for the name?

Fun fact: Iliou is going to be very modifiable; I'm hoping that user-generated levels will be a big part of the game's experience.

Oh hey, that's cool, user generated levels would be something you don't see in games like this. I like it.. And I think Iliou is more easily remembered.  Gentleman

Iliou is much more memorable Smiley

User generated levels? Sweet, you hardly ever get to see them in games of this genre, if at all.

Data parsing is essentially complete; I've just started on enemy rendering.

Apparently I was misinformed. For the proper pronunciation, it shouldn't be Iliou, it should be Helios. I think I like Iliou better, though. Opinions?

Definitely Iilou. Helios is a significantly more commonly used name, while Iilou has a unique charm about it.

@wogan





Also, I like Iliou. It's quite evocative, consonant, and original. There is probably another game called Helios by now anyway.

Progress! (Click the image for better quality, sorry for the bad host, the internet filter where I'm at doesn't like imageshack. I'll fix it when I get home.)



I'll upload the most recent build in a few hours so you can play with it and make your own ships if you like.
