http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~gezeder/lloyd/GBS_Swarm.zip For anyone who is interested the above link is to an early version of my game. It is primarily multiplayer (2 player). Make sure you read the !ReadMeFirst.txt before running it covers some known issues/bugs/how to play details. A screenshot from the game exists here: http://www.blitzbasic.com/gallery/view_pic.php?id=303&gallery=&page=1 While I am interested in comments I am mainly interested in hearing how people found the gameplay and whether there are any dominant strategies which always win or other similar issues. A patched executable is available from here. Run this instead of the executable present in the main download. http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~gezeder/lloyd/GBS_Swarm_Patch.zip

Just a repeat of the above message, in case you hadn't seen it: My game is available for early testing of the multiplayer feature. Menus etc are basically functional but the core game mechanics are in place. The link is: home.swiftdsl.com.au/~gezeder/lloyd/GBS_Swarm.zip As stated above, make sure you read the !ReadMeFirst.txt file.

That's the most exact description of a bug I have heard so far.

This version doesn't have a single player mode.
