This software offers an open source strategy game suitable for gamers looking to indulge in an immersive gameplay experience.
One notable feature of the game is its keyboard shortcuts. Players can use "o" to access options, "s" to save, and "p" to set the start position for the main ship. Additionally, the "TAB" key allows players to switch between terrain and vegetation while the mouse wheel can be used to choose a new tile from either category. "q" and "b" can be used to exit the game without saving progress, and left-clicking places terrain or vegetation while right-clicking removes them.
The game also includes command line parameters. Players can specify the filename for loading and saving with the "-name" parameter, and specify the number of columns and rows in the map with the "-cols" and "-rows" parameters, respectively. Config variables can also be set with the "+seta [cvar] [value]" parameter.
Overall, Unknown Horizons shows promise as a strategy game worth keeping an eye on as it continues to evolve and improve.
