Rise is a multiplayer 4X game.
Rise is built in java using the exultant.us Beard library (https://github.com/heavenlyhash/beard) for browser-based ui.
Development is at a very early not-even-alpha stage. I'll be honest, it's pretty much a demo project for Beard at this point.
Ant.
After compiling, open the "index.html" page in the "dist" folder in a browser of your choice. If you have java installed and set up to handle applets in your browser, you're good to go.
