Cities generate material and people for the army and building projects. The game is playable but incomplete. I am looking for feedback on the UI and playability i.e. is it intuitive. I don't want to burden users with complex instructions. It should be Turn On and Play. Each page has a brief 1 screen only set of helpful hints. The game is also intended for teaching so View All mode is ON which alters some behaviours. A compressed timeline for 5 years is provided to allow users a taste of how the full version will unfold. Stick with Assyria for now as I used it during development. Only the desktop version with resource file is uploaded. The 2 files must in the same directory. It was compiled using PPL 1.32. The pocket version has some performance issues but if anyone asks I can upload it.  1197903402_404_FT0_game2.zip | ||

One point that was a bit 'aargh'' when I progressed the game to 1491 Winter:1 a standard windows msgbox popped up instead (I assume) of the in game one? Other than that, so far a good looking game. Maybe you could do a tutorial on scolling map creation for a future newsletter? Keep up the good work. Editor of \'Voice of the PPL\' the newsletter for the PPL by the PPL!
