    Bontãgo

    This game developed by Juniors at DigiPen Institute of Technology, looks very unique and very cool!

    Bontago is an intense single or multiplayer 3d real-time strategy game. Players begin with flags (one color for each player) spaced evenly around the edge of a large disk, called the field, balanced on a fulcrum in the center. Around each flag is a circle representing that player’s controlled area. Every few seconds a block appears on each player’s cursor. The players must place the blocks somewhere in their controlled areas. Players can place the block at any moment in the allotted time, or can hold it until time is up and the block will fall on its own and be replaced by the next block. The goal of the game is to encompass all of the world flags in the controlled area.

    Although the rules are simple, strategic thinking, quick reflexes, and a bit of luck is required to win this game.

    Sounds like fun, doesn’t it :D Download the game here. Their site seems to be down, now and then, so if you can’t download it try again later.

    Harvest: Massive Encounter

    h:me

    This amazing-looking game, courtesy of Oxeye Games, is worth all of the hype it is getting. The guys over at Oxeye certainly know the niche in the games market - bringing us an outstanding Real-Time Strategy (RTS).

    You must build your base, gather resources and fend off endless hordes of aliens. The game uses a highly optimized engine perfectly suited for epic battles with literally thousands of enemies!

    But like with any RTS, there’s more to it than that! There’s a complete storyline to it and many more in-depth details about various enemies and their attributes and weaknesses. Being a full-fledged RTS, you’d expect a price-tag, and that’s unfortunately what you get. However, you may download the demo to ‘wet your appetite’, or find out how the game plays, right here.

    Alien Invasion (RTS)

    I’ve been keeping a very close eye on this one. Not only is it an Real-time Strategy - It’s a Real-time Strategy made with Multimedia Fusion!! “Is that even possible?” I hear you scream… well according to ‘Retainer’, the man behind the game, it is very possible indeed!

    This video only shows a very short snippet of what’s to come, but it certainly looks promising and very impressive!

    Fortunately, the name of the game isn’t set in stone. “Alien Invasion” isn’t really the most… imaginative… of choices :P Will be interesting to see what it turns in to. The game is very pretty too, which is always a bonus! This seems to be a project that will actually be finished, too (”touch wood”, as they say!). Four years to make the engine for it? Really!? After such a long time in the works, it’d be crazy to give up now! ;)
