_MED_ | TBD

Alakrom is a turn based strategy game set in a fantasy world. It's a multiplayer-only wargame where players can face each other on different maps. There will be 1vs1, team vs team, and free-for-all modes. The game features different unit types and many of them have special skills such as ranged attacks, area-of-effect attacks, offensive and defensive spells. There are also different types of terrain which affect units movements and combat values. The game is completely written using html+javascript, so no plugin is needed to play, just a browser. Everything is saved on server and games can be played live or in multiple sessions.

New server and Map editor

Sep 14 2011 News

In the last few months i spent much of my time correcting bugs, which is nothing that users can really feel and see, and something which is difficult to write news on.

On September 1fst i decided to move tha game on a dedicated space and spent abount 4-5 day configuring everything, it's not been easy but now i can use some server-side techniques/technologies that weren't availables on a simple shared hosting, so the code is really more efficient and responsive.

The other thing i worked, which was far more funny, is the visual map editor: now i can finally draw maps in minutes. This means that in the near future users will be able to play on different maps than the old and boring "The Ring".
At the moment the editor is only available to admins, but in future also players will be able to use it and desing their own maps.

Just to let you see it really exists, here's a video:
