FyteCraft
A real-time strategy game where combat is the game rather than the reward for twenty minutes of economy. It is alpha, it says so on the front page, and the source is public while that is true.
What it is
A real-time strategy game where combat is the game rather than the reward for twenty minutes of economy. Most RTS makes you spend the opening building something before anything happens; this starts at the part people stayed for.
It is early
Alpha, and said so on the front page rather than discovered on launch. Things are missing, things will change, and the source is public while that is true. If you want a finished game this is not one yet.
How it works
- Look at it as sourceIt is public, and that is currently the honest way in.
- Understand the inversionMost RTS makes you spend the opening building something before anything happens. This starts at the part people stayed for.
- Expect it to changeAlpha is not a marketing word here.
The idea
The fight is the gameNot the reward for surviving an economy phase.
No build order to memoriseThe opening is not a script you either know or lose to.
Real-timeIt is an RTS, with the part people actually replay.
Alpha, said out loudOn the front page, rather than discovered on launch.
Public sourceReadable while it is being built, not once it is finished.
FreeThere is nothing to buy and nothing to pre-order.

- Will it cost money later?
- Nothing is being sold and nothing is being promised.
