Get the AI working well and this is worth going retail.

nice, if only someone wanted to put it on retail

if they did I would finish the AI(its not to bad now, just need to speed it up and set a few things) . but retailers want their stuff to sell rather than mine I think. thanks wodin its nice to see my game being appreciated

Considered Steam??
At one point I was considering expanding A Wargamers Needful Things to become a publisher for those games to niche etc or unlikely to give enough profit for the bigger publishers. This is the kind of project I'd be looking at.

I looked at steam a long while back, you have to pay $100 dollers to submit a game and it probably would not get greenlit because its niche.
My best option would be selling a game on itch.io , the reason a publisher is needed is the access to graphics / audio / customer base / online shop .. etc... but the publishers want to improve their own projects rather that getting dugin to a new programer, so as it stands I'm probably never getting published

See I can supply an online shop, AWNT has a good pool of possible customers also I can offer help with coding and art assets. As I said I have the foundations to build a publishing company that deals with small and or niche games.

I have succeded in fixing the A.I. its not the online demo with hotseat, just adding news about it, but wow its great, may sell the A.I. version, still a little work to do but the main problem is fixed
I cant believe the A.I.it attacks and hunts like a klingon,
I fixed quite a few things from the hotseat demo,

OK Last Post, I found an error on the armour and anti-armour hit effects, so all prior versions had this error, I added a visible captain orders rating on the energy allocation screen, I have assigned seperate captains per ship on the updated modules, and I have edited the captains images to give variety.
This is def the last update, I have had enough programing, everything looks fine and tested, so get the final version now, I may look for an artest yet though to beef it up
