free game graphics It is once again time for a prototyping challenge! The rules are the same. You are an elite programmer that wants to make something fun without spending ten years in art school learning how to draw stick figures. This time, we are tackling an ancient, yet still fascinating, genre that is long overdue resurrection: The God Game. Back in the day, there was a game call Populous where you played a god. I've divided the challenge up into two sections. Challenge Part I: Core MechanicsHave you ever experienced the simple joy of sorting your Legos? As with all mechanics, the written design is a starting point. The mapThe land starts out with randomly sorted PlanetCute prototyping tiles, piled up to five levels deep. There are several types of tiles: Basic tiles: There are a few basic tiles, grass, dirt, water.Rare tiles: Each basic tile has a rare analogue such as emerald, ruby or sapphire. Prayer listAlong the side of window is a list of patterns that various villagers want you to build.

Mars Colony Online Simulation Mars Colony is first most a simulation, secondly entertainment, and thirdly bound by the laws of the game engine, 3D rendering technology and the capabilities of the designer and artist. As such, there have been a lot of interesting discussions lately around artwork. Namely the juxtaposition of object artwork in a imaginary facility on Mars, that closely tracks the mechanical requirements of the simulation, and meets the bar of quality and realism set by the game’s designer. As such, then objects that are interacted with, must meet certain criteria – but especially the nebulous “It must look right.” Fortunately there is public information on visionary ideas of what colonization of a planet like Mars might be, but a strong lack of DETAIL. Beyond DETAIL, there are the mid-ground elements, like duct work, clutter and graphics on the habitation unit panels. Then comes the background. To that end, we know, somewhat what the surface of Mars looks like.

[JUN06] "Coiled tubing units are so compact and have such great potential, the Mars Drilling Project is evaluating a coiled tubing unit to drill for water on Mars." I thought I would include a review of this game, as it is a similar concept to colonization, and so might be of interest to some readers. This is a very unusual game, quite apart from the run of the mill. Also mine Helium-3 for [as yet un-discovered] radiation free Fusion Reactors. For once the blurb on the back cover, actually reflects the game, so I will include it:
