Eador: Genesis (TBS+RPG)

Hi!

First of all I have to thank developers for a nice library!
Here is my Allegro powered game: http://www.gog.com/gamecard/eador_genesis

It was released in 2009, but in russian only, now an english version is available.

Some screens:

You've convinced me to buy and try it.

Nice to see Allegro being used for a complete game.

Looks interesting. I see it's windows only?
I only run Linux and Mac, so I'm wondering if it runs ok in wine?

Very nice work, and I'm happy to see it's based on allegro.

I bought it when it first came out and liked it very much, even though I could never make far into campaign. UI feels a bit amateurish, but otherwise a very interesting game!

Thanks for kind words, guys!

Yes, here is a discussion thread: http://www.gog.com/forum/eador_genesis/eador_wine
Wrapper is here: http://portingteam.com/files/file/7632-eador-genesis/

It does look very good. I'll give it a try once my landlords reverse the second lot of rent they accidentally removed from my account.

Out of interest, was Kohan one of th inspirations of your game. It's probably my favourite all time game, and the graphics style you use is very reminiscent of it.

It reminds me of Heroes of Might and Magic more than Kohan, though I've only seen the trailer.

Is there a demo for the game?

Either way, congratulations and making a game and getting it out there!

My primary inspiration source was Master of Magic. Other TBS games, like Heroes and Dominions, also had an impact on the development. But not Kohan, sorry.

>Is there a demo for the game?
You can get it here: http://files.games.1c.ru/eador/demo/eador_demo_setup.exe
Warning: it is in russian.

Thanks!

$4.79 for a game with 120 hours of gameplay? /me whips out kcalc. That's spending a penny every 15 minutes of gameplay!

They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas.

It's always good to see finished and polished game around these forums :D Could you posibly link some screenshots here? (You know the No Screenshot = No Download rule). And by the way, how long have you been working on it?

Anyway, looks interesting, pity there's no Linux port, I've grown some distaste for Wine.

Thank you, first post updated with some screenies.
It takes 2 years to make it (2007-2009). And since then I'm update game with patches (last one was released this fall).

Nice. I like the graphics and the overall style. Judging by the screenshots it looks very polished to me. Also I like the genre, reminds me countless hours of Heroes of Might and Magic. Good job, if I'll have time I think I'll give it a try.
