This is a realtime strategy game that I am working on:

Here is the demo at the Blitz Showcase

This is just a demo to show you the basics. The full game is coming along nicely.

Comments are appreciated

BTW it has curretly no name, anyone?

Very nice. I like. It'd be easier to control if you could just click on stuff to select it though, instead of having to drag out a box every time.

Is that a normal Blitz terrain or a mesh?

Nice, took a while to figure out there were no enemies :) A few improvements:

1: If I build multiple new units at once, and don't move them, they are all camped on top of each other. The box selection makes it impossible to select just one of these unit.

2: When dragging the box selection, the starting corner should stay fixed and not move when scrolling.

Yes I know, this will also be fixed in the future, I didnīt bother to add it just yet :)

It is a mesh, that follows the camera, modifing it accordingly.

Yes this is a problem, the building should command the units standing in the way, to move out of the way!

Yes I agree, but then you shouldnīt be allowed to rotate the view while dragging.

Yeah there are no enemies yet, AI is still to come :)

BTW most of the graphics are temporary.

Glad you liked it.
