Contributions

This page contains list of contributions the project needs. The list is not final, if you have any ideas and/or suggestions to it - please feel free to contact us on Discord or via e-mail.

Artwork

Required items:

  • Main menu background image and separate parchment image with transparent shadow
  • Supporting artwork for menu screens
  • Icons for Single Player map selection list (map types)
  • Replacements for any missing/low quality icons

Optional items:

  • New building/citizen graphics/animations - ask on Discord for what we currently need, as not all ideas can be added without disrupting game balance. (for example, it would be nice to be able to make weapons for Town Hall units, but we do not have animations for them)
  • New terrain objects (trees, rocks, etc.) and maybe some water objects
  • New animals (birds, hedgehogs, etc)
  • New project logo and icon
  • Graphical layout of all keyboard shortcut keys and mouse actions in game (maybe with multiplayer chat commands listed nearby)

Experimental research items:

  • New user interface
  • New design for menu elements
  • Weather and day/night effects (clouds, rain, night, fog, snow, etc..)

Please contact us for additional details and requirements description if you plan to pick any of the tasks, so we could discuss it.

Programming

We need anyone who is familiar with Delphi/Lazarus/Pascal and eager to work on the project. We don't have fixed roles, so anyone has a chance to work on something he likes. Talk to us on Discord to get started.

See https://github.com/reyandme/kam_remake/wiki#for-developers on how to start playing around with the code.

Some bigger planned items:

  • Utilities for game resources editing
  • Implementing unit tests
  • Improving menu elements layout + proper HiDPI support
  • Game launcher/updater (work in progress)
  • ... more on Trello/Github in the future

Additional areas of interest:

  • Documenting project structure and code
  • Building code diagrams
  • Performing bugfixes

Experimental areas:

  • Particle effects (weather, smoke, fire)
  • AI and LLM usage in the project

Sound engineers / Music composers

The project needs:

  • New ambient sound effects (birds, wind, water tide, etc.)
  • New music tracks

Writing

It would be nice to expand this wiki with new articles.

  • Convert existing Mission Editors guide on scripting into this wiki
  • Update and improve project compilation guide
  • Tutorials on how to use map editor and utility tools

Translations

The project always needs translations into new languages and improving existing translations. If you are willing to help, please contact us on Discord. It might require a new font set (see below).

Maintenance

Track and file all bugreports into bugtracker (Trello - in future, GitHub project issues page)

Website Translations

Our website http://www.kamremake.com is automatically translated by Google Translate, and can then be improved by volunteers. If you want to improve a translation please contact us.

Beta Testing

Before every release we send private "beta" versions of the game to our playtesters to find bugs and mistakes that we missed. Due to the complex nature of the game many bugs can only be found by playing for hours, which we do not have time to do. If you want to join our quality assurance team please join Discord and check our updates on new-versions channel.

Promotion

Spread the word, tell your friends, post it around the internet! We want to attract as many players as possible.
