Godot 4 / C#
Game logic, interface, pathfinding, multiplayer later on. Godot experience helps, basic C# is enough to start.

Help is welcome
I am looking for people who want to build along. Unpaid, no deadlines, no obligation. There is no application process: write me a short note about what appeals to you and how much time you have.
Where help is needed
02
Reverse engineering
Opening up unknown sections of the original formats, checking readings against the data, redoing the arithmetic. The slowest part, and the most rewarding.
03
Graphics & sprites
For the planned Reborn graphics mode: new unit and building art in the spirit of the original, switchable against the derived pictures.
04
Testing
Playing through missions, reporting crashes and rule deviations, checking the import with your own discs. This one needs the original CDs.
05
Translation
Keeping the game texts and this website clean across German and English. If you want to add another language, get in touch.
06
Docs & wiki
Guides for setup and import, documentation of the file formats, a wiki covering units and missions.
What you should bring
- An interest in old games and the patience to verify things.
- For testing and import, the two original CDs. Code, graphics, text and docs do not need them.
- Say honestly what does not work. Misreadings get withdrawn here, not painted over.
- No CV, no degree, no professional experience. Half-finished tinkering says more.
How to get in touch
Write me a short mail. You will hear back once I get to it. This runs after work.
- What appeals to you: code, reverse engineering, graphics, testing, translation or docs.
- Roughly how much time you have. One hour a month is an honest answer.
- If you have one: a GitHub profile, or anything you have built.
