About
Redux 3 is the latest in a line of old-school real-time strategy games. The first two were attempts at creating a simple Dune 2 clone consisting of a skirmish mode (which was a major feature lacking from the original Dune 2). Unfortunately, these 2 games were incomplete and had some annoying bugs. This latest attempt by far exceeds every game I've ever written in terms of completeness, features, and stability. The first two were learning steps, but this one is my personal portfolio - a demonstration of my abilities at game making.
The goal was to write a 2d RTS engine that is completely and easily modable in order to be able to clone as wide of a range of titles as possible. There are also features that have been added that I have yet to see in a RTS game. I can say this game does a very good job of recreating some very classic RTS games: Dune 2, Command and Conquer, and even Total Annihilation, all with the additional features to spicen up the gameplay.
