An exciting new twist on Battleship, play Warships over the internet with countless friends and enemies engaging in cut-throat warfare on the high seas.
Imagine Battleship with a few changes:
- Teams No one fights alone. Don't like your team? Switch. Don't like anyone? Mutiny and start your own.
- Badass Command Line Interface Ever want to feel like a submarine commander in an 80s Tom Clancy adaptation? It's your lucky day.
- Essentially unlimited play area The difference between fighting over a lake and domination of the Pacific is limited only by the server admins imagination.
- Control the ships They're ships, after all. Need more? Spend deployment points to deploy more ships.
For more details - how to play, how to run, how to modify - check out the wiki.
Everything runs right out of the box. No external libraries to install (all handwritten myself). There are a few things you'll need though...
So far only tested successfully on Linux - doesn't work on Windows yet - not sure about OSX.
