Oil Rush is a real-time naval strategy game based on group control. It combines the strategic challenge of a classical RTS with the sheer fun of Tower Defence. Fight the naval war between furious armies across the boundless waters of the post-apocalyptic world. Pump the ever-so-precious black gold by oil rigs, capture platforms and destroy the enemy in the sea and in the air. Be ingenious to unlock super technologies and quick to send your squads straight into the heat of the battle!

Nice update, thank you.
Do you guys have any plans to release a cross-platform (especially Linux hehe) first person shooter with this engine? :]

Hi everybody! I've recently bought Oil Rush on Desura. Very nice graphics for a cross-platform game. Is there any way to get it on Steam too?

It would be helpfull to read the error-messages. You get it by executing:
<your Desura Path>/common/oil-rush/desura_launch_Play\ Game.sh
i. E. ~/desura/common/oil-rush/desura_launch_Play\ Game.sh

By a Termin of your choice.

I've installed Desura with 11.10 (64bit) and it still runs (I upgraded to 12.04 at the time, 12.04-Beta2 was released.)

all permissions are correct, I checked the shell-scripts too, they seem legit.
I also deleted oil-rush s .settings subfolder to force a reinstall of the missing libraries, then I verified everything and it still doesn t run...
the launcher is in /oil rush/bin as is the executable, the launcher works but when i click play it just doesn t start... (I already completed the game on ubuntu 11.10 before upgrading, but Id like to see it working on 12.04 too!)
