Warzone 2100 is an open source RTS game written in C++ and uses the SDL 2 (input and graphics context), OpenGL (graphics), OpenAL (sound) and PhysicsFS (filesystem) libraries. its a very old game with a good memories with many people. some people is still playing it until now.
It is good to have an open source game like it because it is rare to have an open source competitor with all of that features and units, functions in that game at the current time.
Many developers have a great contributions to this project and they are all made a history will be remembered.
While playing you will go deep in 1990s games. and you will feel that from the first game.
The Sounds is for shooting and bombing is a real war zone.
The game has multiple missions built on prime base that your troops will be sent from there. Then you've to back to LZ in order to return to your base after completing the mission
It's have an air and navy and custom tanks, tracks, and more as you will be able to design it your self a really awesome feature that you will like very rare to find in any strategy game like it.
Currently the game is still under maintain. but I can't say they've made a big change until now.
The graphics needs to be better and I think all art and 3D's designs needs to be upgraded. to enter the competition with other modern games that exist in our current time.
The game back end and game abilities is an incredible.
Why not going with the graphic further than that?
as I can see the current focus on the game maintenance and the backend.
the game must be better and better. it has a great system.
An online mode has been established while ago. so I can say the current progress isn't bad at all but I think the game needs to change the whole graphic with another full update as well as the sounds.
But for now. I think the game needs more contributors to the project to reborn and make another history.
