Writing a Game

[JoeC]

I am writing a simple war/map kind of game in C++/win32. I am
progressing pretty well and the game is comming together. I am not
sure of what kind of people read this page but I would like to share my
game as both teaching and learning. I have most of the game finished
and you can find it here:

I have just posted my last update and if you want the latest version I
will send it to you. All I realy have left to do is implemt a combat
system. I am slowly putting that together. I just implemnted the
changing of movment to combat phase.

I "have a game in my head" and I am taking the steps to create the
basics and slowly write and re-write the game until build that game.
What I have in mind is somthing like civilization but different kind of
play which is hard to describe but my ideas draw on older games and
some board games I have played. When I have time I sketch out and
connect the ideas I have. All my ideas are not yet realy clear but
when I have time I work on them and I hope if any one cares I would
like to put somthing together that gives a good detailed description of
my game concept.

I am also working on other things like lerning the basics of directX.
I just learned how draw a line. Still I only work on that stuff when I
have to get away from my game.
