M.O.R.E 4x space sim fully funded, almost has Linux from day 1 goal!

By - | Views: 6,334
M.O.R.E a game we first told you about a little while ago has been fully funded on kickstarter and is now just over $1,000 away from giving a Linux port from day one!

This is thanks to them re-organising their stretch goals so Linux day 1 was moved from 80k to 65k which is great news as it still has 6 days to go, it's an easy bet on this one folks!

Some early video for M.O.R.E:

Yes, a proper 4X sim! There's not enough of those on Linux. Actually, I'm not sure there are any.

Quoting: "Anon, post: 5882"Yes, a proper 4X sim! There's not enough of those on Linux. Actually, I'm not sure there are any.

Not sure if you will consider those "proper 4X sims", but:

I'm aware of those, but neither is 4x actually. They're just sims.

[This is getting a bit off-topic, but why do you consider them to not be 4X games?
I only tried Widelands and FreeCiv (without ever understanding how to play it) shortly, but I have played Settlers 2 and Anno 1602 quite a bit, on which Widelands and Unknown Horizons are based to my knowledge. Both of them involved eXploring, eXpanding, eXploiting and eXterminating (more or less). And FreeCiv and FreeCol are mentioned on the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4x_game']wikipedia 4X page[/URL].
That being said, I never played Master of Orion...]

I don't know really. I've never really seen Settlers as an example of a 4X game because of its simplicity when lack of management. And Unknown Horizons, I must say the last time I looked at it it was in a terrible state, and I haven't really bothered to look at it again. But I see that it has changed severely now.

When it comes to civilization, I admit, I just dismissed it because I haven't thought of it that way, although I fully realize civ is a 4X game.

Still, none of those games are in any way similar to MoO. I guess I'd just like another one of those, and my mind has simply for whatever reason equalled 4X to Orion.
