About the game
Globulation 2 is a RTS game with an unusual gameplay design. The source and media are licensed under the GPL. The latest release of the game is 0.9.4.1 released on March 25, 2009. It is programmed in C++. It uses the SDL and Boost libraries. ==Gameplay== Players can play multiplayer games via LAN or via the Internet through the Ysagoon Online Gaming service. In single-player mode, they can play against different AIs or in campaign mode.
In Globulation 2, unlike other games in its genre, players cannot control units directly. Influencing the unit's behaviour is done by creating zones and flags on the map, which affect a certain type and amount of units, ordering them to harvest resources, scout a region, avoid places or search for enemies to attack.
===Units=== *Warriors' their main function is to attack the enemy and defend the buildings and workers. They fight in close combat. They can gain experience in combat, thus leveling makes them more powerful and destructive. Training facilities can enhance the fighting ability of these warriors significantly. *Workers gather food and the resources needed for building. They build, repair, and upgrade buildings and automatically work on constructing, repairing, or harvesting resources. *Explorers are flying units that automatically scout the map in a circular movement. These flying creatures can only be attacked by enemy explorers and towers. They can be upgraded to bomb units. Since they cannot be attacked by globs, they are especially devastating when there are no other enemy scouts and towers in the area.
