I sort of failed at the game but I included it in part 20 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/3H1YVzN-nuA
Nice game, fun to play and can be challenging with max planets
Update grafic please (maybe its copyright)
Made for Ludum Dare #30 in 72 hours.
Connect and Conquer: Emperors is a real time strategy game focused on expansion and resource management. What this really means is that you get to take part in an epic battle for the control of a whole galaxy custom made to fit your tastes! You may also take the role of a spectator, allowing the AIs to duke it out on their own while you enjoy the show.
The game has four different factions each of which plays a bit differently. There is no balance to speak of and the AI is dumb as a shoe, but you can't have everything in a Ludum Dare game.
The round ends when the player is annihilated or when someone has conquered the whole galaxy.
Controls can also be found within the game, but here they are once again:
[menu]
Control the menu with your mouse
[game]
ESC: pause
left mouse button: select planets* / select menu item
click on a planet to select, release on other planet to perform action depending on the planet (build bridge or send ships)
[pause]
ESC: quit to menu
left mouse button: resume
