I've created a small strategy game and wanted to share it with you, as strategy games are afaik a bit underrepresented in the forum ^^ The quality and especially the graphics are quite amateurish, but nonetheless the game was quite interesting to make and maybe is also to play

Asuindu is a small strategy game, that reminds more of a board game than a computer game. You reinforce/create armies and add units to them and then have to destroy the opponent or survive for a number of turns !

Several (tutorial) scenarios and campaigns (each consists of 5 scenarios) are available :
- Maurya Empire (an empire in ancient India (321 BC to 185 BC))
- Imjin Waeran (Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598))
- Muslim Conquest of Persia (Rashidun Empire vs Sassanid Empire (633-644))
- Taiping Rebellion (a civil war in southern China (1850-1864))

These scenarios/campaigns can either be played in Single-Player or in Multiplayer (hotseat/PBEM). An Editor to alter or create maps is also included (this editor was used to create the scenarios/campaigns).

You'll need the .net 3.0 framework (most probably already installed on a XP, Vista or Window 7 computer and the .ogg codecs !

just played through the scenarios, really enjoyed it though there were a few times the AI should of won but chose a different move, such as taking the final town but moved away instead

Nice and solid game with intuitive and easy to understand gameplay. Well done!

Leaving the game in order to start a new campagn/scenario was somewhat inconvenient, though. Perhaps you could add a NextScenario property to the scenario map files (or something like this), so when a scenario is won, the next scenario is loaded automatically?

@MrGuest thank you! yes the AI isn't really smart and doesn't put off a good fight without major advantages ^^

@Myrkling thank you! yes, that's really inconvenient, but the whole architecture of the game is quite flawed and thus incorporating a real gui and no the .net starter app would be really hard ^^ The next scenario property, would have been an interesting idea !

Does not work Win 7 64 Bit
Asuindu is not working anymore
Greetings Progger

@Progger yes it's only compiled for 32 Bit

it's also not working on my laptop(32 bit)
all gamestudio games work, but this one doesn't

do you have .net 3.0 and the .ogg codecs installed ?

I'll check that

[EDIT]: seems to be installed(I'm using vista), but it still doesn't work
With the control panel I turned 2 .net3 options on, but it still doesn't work.
well, I think I'll have to watch the screenshots insteda

strange indeed ^^
