I've glanced over your headers, and you certainly have done a lot of work. Are you planning to add changes to the original gameplay or to just reimplement it for different platforms?

After reparing functionality of original game we planned expansion and a multiplayer

Sorry, that link doesn't work for me, because I use linux. I will have to try compiling it from source, but not today, I have too much work now.

+ Houses now may to raise/lower level
+ Roads have more priority for movement, than earth
+ Service buildings now may hire workers in the district (as in the original game)
+ Wells influence "desirability" of the earth

This is an interesting project, I have added it to the list of independent games here.

Hey guys.
Big fan of your work.
Downloaded the caesaria-0.5-macos-build-20150924
but i have problem with installing it.
The install_libs.sh file says
"
#!/bin/sh
# Thanks for Anakros from habrahabr.ru
# Run this sript for download dependencies and install game
# then run ./caesaria.macos from console

LIBDIR=~/Library/Frameworks/

curl -O https://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL2-2.0.3.dmg
curl -O http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer/release/SDL2_mixer-2.0.0.dmg

hdiutil mount SDL2_mixer-2.0.0.dmg
hdiutil mount SDL2-2.0.3.dmg

mkdir -p $LIBDIR
cp -r /Volumes/SDL2/SDL2.framework $LIBDIR
cp -r /Volumes/SDL2_mixer/SDL2_mixer.framework $LIBDIR

chmod +x caesaria.macos && chmod +x updater.macos
"

I dont know how to run a script.
Could you guys help me?

So after many tries, i finally understood what to do.


I needed to open terminal-app
run the script there
then run the ./ceasaria.macos in the same app

Is this game actually in active development? It would also be nice if the game was available on other sources than just through Github and also gave an indication as to whether the game is actually fully completed.

It's an interesting project, but the OP hasn't posted in a while and I fear the project is abandoned.

Check the links above, there was an update after your post.
