Version 0.0xx (linux)

Hi,

due to a comment in the previous post I just uploaded the Linux version of Towns.
I'm developing the game under Windows so I can't test that version yet. It's possible that doesn't works at all.

You can downlad that version in the download panel (on the left). The launcher file it's 'towns.sh'.

Any comment from Linux users can be appreciated.

External changes:

- Items carried by citizens are now painted.
- Smooth scroll just pressing the arrow keys.
- Items added: chair, table, bread, wheat
- Buildings added: bakery, wheat farm

I'll be grateful if any of you (hello? anybody here?) sends me some feedback. The game is still open and any idea will take into account.

Thanks for reading.

Introduction

Hello everybody,

first of all i apologize for my english. I hope I can make myself understood.


I'm developing a citybuilder game just for fun and as a personal challenge. It has some similarities with Dwarf Fortress but that will change in the future. At the moment I haven't very clear the future of game, I mean that I haven't clear the features (remember, "just for fun and as a personal challenge") but I think that the game has potential.

The game it's in an isometric view and it's handled basically by mouse (with some keyboard shortcuts), if you want you can see it in Youtube (currently 4 videos):
Overview
Testing fluids
Testing stockpiles & buildings
Crossing the river

Hope you like it and I'll appreciate the comments.
