*** Project is being rewritten in TypeScript here***

The current Java version implemented poor design decisions which makes it hard to continue developing it without a complete rewrite. (I abused OOP) With typescript, I can keep code quality in check completely focus on the web version.


A turn based strategy game built on LibGDX, with a rouge-like tile set.

About

OpenCiv is a love letter to turn based strategy games inspired by Sid Meier's Civilization. The game strives to improve on certain aspects that were lacking in the series, and experiment with new features. If you like game development, Java, or pixel art, consider contributing. We can make something great.

Eventually, I'd like to add support modding through LUAJ.

How do I build and run this?

  • Install Java 11 or higher. NOTE: OpenJDK has problems (at least for me on linux)
  • Install GIT
  • Run -> git clone https://github.com/rhin123/OpenCiv.git
  • Open Eclipse or any other java editor, and import grade project (Eclipse is recommended, haven't tested on other IDEs)
  • To import the project properly, make sure you select the OpenCiv folder, and not the subfolders.
  • To get the game running you would run the OpenCiv-lwjgl3 Lwjgl3Launcher.java class & the OpenCiv-server Server.jar To start the Client & Server

Right click -> Run as -> Java Application

run_client

Right click -> Run as -> Java Application

run_server

  • Click multiplayer & connect, then start the game.

If you have any issues when trying to set up a build environment, please comment Here. I'm trying new ways make the set-up of this development environment easier.

Currently, there is no releases available as the game is still in heavy development. Once AI is re-written & singleplayer mode is implemented, a release will be available.
