New Sci-Fi PBEM project needs YOU! From: "Seyed Razavi" <seyed@kmpinternet.com> Date: Wed, 28 Apr 1999 00:00:00 +0000 Hi, I have the beginnings of a Sci-Fi strategy game which goes something like this: Each player controls a family of character (six initially) who in turn can act as either starship captains, colony governors, ground force generals, political supervisors and agents. Players also group themselves into affiliations based around various entities such as corporations, governments, alien races and so on. The aim of the game is to advance the cause of your affiliation by working closely with your fellow members to achieve a preset a goal which is different for each affiliation. Obviously, I have many more ideas as to the actual game play. I know its possibly not the most original of ideas but I think all the little touches will add up. As for how it works I hoped to develop it using Java with an Oracle back-end. Anyway, I am looking for designers, programmers and artists who are willing to help. The game is strictly non-profit and will be released open-sourced under GNU when complete. Please contact me at seyed@btinternet.com if you are interested. Cheers, Seyed. Up
