Small world Foodstamp!

It has been quite a while since I looked at 0ad. I used to frequent aiscripters and noted the 0ad forum there. It looked as though the project was dying at that time so I kinda lost track of it. Quite to the contrary, it appears to be progressing nicely.

Goodstuff

As with any spare time project, there are ups and downs of activity. Staff come and go, but as long as those things are just obstacles to be overcome, and not roadblocks that completely stop progress, eventually the game gets released

It is crazy fun to play and insanely modder friendly, I can't wait to see what the community does with it

Quite boring time of history

Well 0 A.D. is not actually a "real" time in history, but I think the time period represented, 500 years B.C. to 500 A.D. are actually some of the most exciting times in history

Not my favourite at least

I have some short speech why most games fail, but I don't feel like writing it now.

That looks extremely cool, looking forward to seeing it in action!

Dominions would make a fun boardgame.
