I remember a THERMONUCLEAR warfare game from way back, but i would never be interested in a game that can't bother to get the name right.

sorry :) but its phrased in such a way for game purposes and to avoid any movie ref,or game ref such as the one you mention, as a non company I have to be careful not to step on copywrite , but as you objected I have deleted it. I am a sole dev and do it all for free, I can understand a company getting the name wrong would be bad, but I do this for no profit.

I went to the link but I don't see anything to download. I don't know what twitch is or how it works.

Downloaded it and thank you.

Just want to verify this what the opening screen is supposed to look like?

Asking because some of the text looks like it might scroll but not seeing a way to do that.

there are 6 views in each location, enemy has 3 and you have 3, the 3 views are army, navy, airforce, you have to select the one you want, if you get ststic the view your on has no units of that catagory. the views are important throughout the game, even for lists etc... and you can right click enemy view or your view button for a strategic type view.

I know its complex at first, but its easy underneath when you have the basics.

the tme in the game is resolved by trade each day, you must roll the dice after selecting a trade to get the result, at the end of each week you may or may not get stratgic option like nuclear strikes.

one thing to remember, when using the lists and page down etc... your scrolling down the lists NOT! the areas, the areas are sequencial but the lists are those areas with units in etc...

you can upgrade an area with the upgrade button, but to see them you must be in the correct view, and you can upgrade empty areas to get funds each week, happy nuking :)

You have created a lot of games, Mainsworthy! This one looks even "bigger" than the rest.

What can we do to help you, while also trying out the game. A donation or something?

I've just be able to play for a few minutes, but wanted to let you know that everything is working well. I will need more time to experiment.

Thanks for this game, Mark.

PM me one day. I wanted to show my appreciation if that is acceptable to you.

Mike

Can you make an Operational Art of War type game? There are several that could help, but not a main programmer ;)

May I ask if you would be interested in doing something with my Naval game? I will put it online now for you to look at, I need maps, and art and game scenario setups, manual etc..? the game is virtually programmed so the final version is more or less guaranteed .!

I have made it possible to use hand drawn or real maps and an editor to place bases and ships etc... there is a pretty advanced supply mechanic .You have ships Subs Tankers, Airbases, Army bases, Ports, A big supply mechanic where the tankers distribute supplies for shipping to ports etc.. there are para commando Raids, strategic bombing. Large Maps. A Database to plan attacks and find weak targets. a detailed game setup set of options.

I have made it able to work with low res 1024x768 upto 1920x1080.
