Not true, evorts garners a lot of it's own traffic, to the tune of about 500 unique hits per day, and is linked to from many websites that have nothing to do with spring. Very little traffic goes to evorts site from here.Wombat wrote:modb could still use some resources tho. springfiles, evorts and zk - ppl find them AFTER finding springrts.com, which still contains fugly gallery and these terrible vids. i know its about engine, but since its probably first website ppl see, i think there is too much spring in spring.

"Evolution RTS" represents a free real-time strategy game that was originally presented by Ben Woods and driven largely independently of the developer. Meanwhile, Woods is connected, other developers, so that the production progresses relatively rapid progress.
The game is based on any known model, but will, as the team writes on his site that combines the advantages of many titles in a game. Genere├╝blich the player must therefore take care in "Evolution RTS" at the micro and macro management, build units and combat enemies. One of the strengths of the title should be his beginner-friendly.
The game is already in development for some time and can be downloaded in the form of the first test versions from the server of the project. In addition, the developers also offer various tools for subscription that will allow creating your own cards.

A mid-last week published video trailer shows how far the game is now well advanced, and that the engine used Spring certainly can compete with commercial titles. On display is a struggle between two factions, and detailed models, which are used in the game.
Also last week also released the developers of the free track "Greedy Car Thieves" (GCT), a video trailer. The game, which is distributed as freeware, a sandbox game is in the vein of Grand Theft Auto 2 (GTA2); whereas the gameplay and the presentation of the model correspond. The game will contain a story that puts players in the role of a gangster or a legal guardian. In addition, the developer of the game has a multiplayer mode have donated to measure the forces opposing factions in different game species. Using a standalone editor can create new scenarios.
However, GCT is still far from completing. The game is available to interested players but as a trial version available for subscription. As the distribution channel will look like, is not fixed yet. The developers wrote that it is quite possible that the multiplayer component as a freeware and the singleplayer campaign will be published as a paid game.
Update: Originally, abbreviated "Greedy Car Thieves" in the article as "GTC", what was wrong. The abbreviation of the game is GCT.
We have no control over these. I sent a notice to moddb about the AA page.Wombat wrote:actually i see 6 'games' to be removed from modb (7 if u add EE that is not working)
Who is this work mate you speak of?faceleg wrote:I'm new and I've found it tough to find a definitive source of information on Spring & the mods/games.knorke wrote:...snip...
Some of the stuff on the Spring site seems very outdated - it took my workmate to convince me to download it and try it out, as I couldn't tell from the screenshots / videos available how good the engine was. Before I tried it tbh I thought the graphics etc were terrible.
Now I know, but if it wasn't for my workmate convincing me to try it I wouldn't have bothered.
I read that from ie smoth about gundam too.Forboding Angel wrote:Evo gets a lot of traffic from linux gaming sites, and a lot of german sites for some reason.
sadly this :/I think "a lot of traffic" is meaingless if the visitors do not make it ingame to play the game.
dont get me wrong, but spring games dont offer anything new/interesting compared to other rts. its just bunch of units that do pew-pew.So the question is: Why not?
true.dont get me wrong, but spring games dont offer anything new/interesting compared to other rts.
fact that there is many games being ignored makes u totally wrong.not nearly enough developers and content creators on this forum anyway.
They aren't ignored for no reason fool. Not a single one of them is finished.Wombat wrote:fact that there is many games being ignored makes u totally wrong.not nearly enough developers and content creators on this forum anyway.
The real problems are that nobody gets paid to do any of these, everyone has jobs and real life and this is their hobby. Everything is unpolished and un-complete, and that is completely expected and normal of open-source games projects. The sophistication and tight design of many of the spring games is actually one of the few things they have going for them.knorke wrote:Now I can not/did not do anything about all those problems either but I wish at least the "todays gamers are too casual for spring" arguement would not come up all the time.
It is closing the eyes in view of real problems. First step is accepting etc.
You expect it, I expect it. Average person does not know what it means:Everything is unpolished and un-complete, and that is completely expected and normal of open-source games projects.

How is the strange and what are you talking about? Most of those games you mentioned don't even have completed UI, much less a lot of other major features that their developers are planning (can't really speak for cursed and KP). As long as a game starts and runs does that count as 'finished' for you?Wombat wrote:which one is not finished ? cursed, evo, gundam, s44, kernel look finished and fully playable for me (i hope its obvious that constant developlent != unfinished). strange argument coming from zk fan.
also i simply love the argument that everyone who dont play 'my' game are complete idiots.
fool
it counts as 'finished' for me when it starts, i can actually PLAY it, and it provides fun.As long as a game starts and runs does that count as 'finished' for you?
it needs more polishing than any other game, not to mention 'art' site of it which is complete mess. basicly every single thing about zk is playable but 'unfinished' (maybe becouse of this big to-do list?)i mean, thats the reason why i was suprised with such commentAnd what's that about ZK? Given the size of the 'todo' list it is hardly more finished then anything else.
I am saying they are stupid because they play farmville and angry birds
----everyone who dont play 'my' game are complete idiots.
You are surprised I want more developers and content creators? If something is messy and unfinished -> more content creators and developers could help speed it on its way to completion. Thats why I said spring in general could use more. What part of that logic are you having trouble with?Wombat wrote:it needs more polishing than any other game, not to mention 'art' site of it which is complete mess. basicly every single thing about zk is playable but 'unfinished' (maybe becouse of this big to-do list?)i mean, thats the reason why i was suprised with such commentAnd what's that about ZK?

ur quote makes u sound as if zk needed more devs, not spring. dont be greedy, it got more feedback than any other game here (not to mention free to use (best in spring, in my opinion) effects from evo and (same) animations/scripts from gundam)Thats why I said spring in general could use more.
the current devs are way overworked
we get back to the big to-do list. polish the shit up that is already made, atm zk looks like quantity > quality. thats my suggestion.What we can do here is encourage people to play by giving them better games.
