hyades - Multiplayer space strategy game.
Hyades requires you to download and build the Starlab suite <http://www.manybody.org/> before you can succesfully build or run Hyades. See the INSTALL script for details.
Hyades is not quite playable in its current form, but it is close. Order files can be parsed in version 0.0.2, but no action is taken yet. Additionally, the damage model needs to be added, and steering code must be written. After that code is done, intrepid players will be able to build units and pummel each other across the game universe.
Technology and scanning/intelligence are still but twinkles in my eye. Think seriously about contributing code for these features.
