    The team preparing a new decision game called "Kolony 2106" is looking for someone who can help with English and German version of the game. Game exists in Polish and Czech version now. We prepared both - English and German versions, but we need to make it smooth and accurate - we're looking for native-speakers :). If you will decide to give us a hand, we give you a MS Word doc with all in-game words to translate and ATR file with game to get context.

     

    About game: based on original "Kolony" by Janusz Bien (1990), you have to build up a new colony on the planet, you can fight againt four other players or computer, trading, mining, technology development and money management.

     

    sounds like it ate a mule to me.

    So.... any chances of some of these suggestions being implemented? Any idea on what to do with the Money amount going too big for individual players (limit to 18-20 months / move those values to a larger variable / etc...)?

     

    I have another 4-Player MULE night coming up next Friday (5/9)!!!!

     

    :)

     

    Great work so far - I do hope some more refining is done with this neat hack.

    i'd like to see a 3 year long mule game with the playfield extending out after the 18th month, tripling the size of the playfield... (have good vision)! and hope the $$$$ counter can be extended, maybe to 6 digits....

    Here's a mock up of what I believe S&S can look like if it were done on the 2600 as compared to the intv.

    I would think a max of 2 black knights on screen at once (one to chase each player) would keep flicker down.

    I heard someone here on AA actually has one boxed. Is this just a myth?

    Not only that but legend has it there was once a gatefold version. :-o :-o

     

    you know, with all the homebrews truly rare that keep coming out, wouldn't these games used to make the homebrews someday become rare themselves?

     

    THINK ABOUT IT. OR NOT, AND PUMMEL YOUR HEAD AGAINST THE WALL KNOWING YOU SOMEDAY WON'T BE ABLE TO AFFORD ONE.

     

    ESPECIALLY WITH HIGH GAS PRICES...

    WW1 and 2 games would be very similar I would think, both took place in pretty much the same area, though I believe Austria was no longer around when WW2 started, but I'm going by memory here people.

     

    WWII has better technology, better weapons, etc. and the over all story is probably more appealing, WW1 someone would have to know the back history to appreciate the game where as WWII people just want to blast nazi's.

     

    or be forced to become one when you watch and fire at them too many times :ponder:

    Actually I have one that says Doom on it in the doom logo somewhere lying around. Maybe I'll dig it up and upload it. As for a full blown hack I always wanted too but I never figured out how to change the speed of the main characters. I wanted to make a manual and everything.

     

    Show us all of your ideas. It's not hard to mock up screenshots. How can programmers judge the value of working on the project if all you have is a list of what you can't do?

     

    How is your game balanced? What are the level designs? Do enemies stalk the player or only fire if X is at Y? How many objects on the screen simultaneously does your design call for? Are you willing to sacrifice high resolution/multicolor sprites for speed and better enemy variety?

     

    Other people here can probably come up with better questions for you to consider; I'm not a programmer either...

     

    But you've got a good start.

     

    Don't stop now.

     

    good start? even now it looks great.
