Master of Orion/Colonial Conquest II

in the nineties  i love to play colonial conquest 2 on the amiga - but on my maschine it often crashes.
EXTERNAL LINK  So i started to develop my own version in assembler.
The programm runs in 16 or 256 colors - but i lost a lot of graphics in the last 20 years so i have only the 16 color graphics nearly complete. (some pictures are missing)
I'm not shure if i have the latest source code but it runs on Winuae.
EXTERNAL LINK  EXTERNAL LINK  I will develop a new version on the standalone V4 in Assembler - development on PC started 4 months ago (c++,sfml) - it is a leisure project - so it takes time.

Thanks. Love the master of orion series, as well as kind of similar K240 series. Hopefully, gfx can be updated. Thanks.

Awww, now you are making me want to play Master of Orion again, after all these years.

Looking forward to see the progress on the game(s)!

the game is about 20 years old - and only to 70 percent completed.
Now i develop a new version with new graphics and new screen design.
It will run at full hd and shows the planet surface in iso gfx.

Great, as X4 strategy lover since Civ1, looking forward to Vampirized version. Especially Amiga lacks good strategies in new days.

This is the current version of the game

EXTERNAL LINK  EXTERNAL LINK  graphics are poor - but can easy changed - almost everything can bee configured (tech tree/space ships / buildings) in simple text files - only a few thinks are hard coded.
