Pioneers

A Settlers II inspired game written in Haskell

Development-Status

Bugtracker/Wiki: http://redmine.pwning.de/projects/pioneers

Compiling

  1. Clone this repository
  2. install libraries sudo apt-get install libsdl2 libsdl2-dev libghc-llvm-dev - make sure libsdl2 is in version 2.0.1+ (shipped with Ubuntu since 14.04)
  3. run ./build.sh
  4. run ./Pioneers

The script sets up a cabal sandbox, downloads some libraries and compiles them. Only tested under Ubuntu 14.04. Won't work with Ubuntu < 14.04 due to lacking libraries (libsdl2)

Features

Note, that most of it is just planned and due to change.

  • modern OpenGL3.x-Engine
  • themeable with different Cultures
  • rock-solid Multiplayer (no desync, just slightly more lag in case of resync)

Why Haskell?

  • There are not enough good games written in functional languages.
  • More robust and easier to reason about lateron
