About FreeCol</A>

|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
The FreeCol team aims to create an Open Source version of
|
|
Colonization (released under the
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html">GPL</A>). At
|
|
first we'll try to make an exact clone of Colonization. The visuals
|
|
will be brought up to date with more recent standards but will remain
|
|
clean, simple and functional. Certain new 'features' will be
|
|
implemented but the gameplay and the rules will be exactly the same as
|
|
the original game. Examples of modern features are: an isometric map
|
|
and multiplayer support.
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
This clone will be developed incrementally and result in
|
|
<SPAN CLASS="textbf">FreeCol 1.0.0 which will be an almost exact Colonization
|
|
clone</SPAN>. Incremental development basically means that we'll add
|
|
features one at a time. This allows us to have a running program at
|
|
all times and also to release an unfinished but working game once in a
|
|
while.
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
Once FreeCol 1.0.0 is finished we'll start working towards FreeCol
|
|
2.0.0. <SPAN CLASS="textbf">FreeCol 2 will go beyond the original Colonization</SPAN> and
|
|
will have many new features, it will be an implementation of our (and
|
|
our users') image of what Colonization 2 would have been.
