0 A.D. (pronounced "zero ey-dee") is a free, open-source, cross-platform
|
|
real-time strategy (RTS) game of ancient warfare. In short, it is
|
|
a historically-based war/economy game that allows players to relive
|
|
or rewrite the history of Western civilizations, focusing on the
|
|
years between 500 B.C. and 500 A.D. The project is highly ambitious,
|
|
involving state-of-the-art 3D graphics, detailed artwork, sound,
|
|
and a flexible and powerful custom-built game engine.
|
|
|
|
The game has been in development by Wildfire Games (WFG), a group
|
|
of volunteer, hobbyist game developers, since 2001. The code and
|
|
data are available under the GPL license, and the art, sound and
|
|
documentation are available under CC-BY-SA. In short, we consider
|
|
0 A.D. an educational celebration of game development and ancient
|
|
history.
