From: Owner-OS2News@teamos2.org Subject: OS2News: Beta - Entrepreneur from Stardock Systems reply-to: Brad Wardell <bwardell@stardock.com> Sender: Owner-OS2News@teamos2.org Precedence: bulk Apparently-To: <jasonho@singnet.com.sg> Apparently-To: <englf@singnet.com.sg> Status: >From the makers of Galactic Civilizations comes Entrepreneur. A game of conquest, a game of strategy, a game of high powered competition. A game of...economic domination. Entrepreneur is the first game to bring warfware to the new age -- company vs company. Dubbed internally as "The Microsoft Simulator" Entrepreneur puts you into command of your own company in the quest to take over the world. The game will come with different markets to choose from, such as computers, soft drinks, etc. Add on modules from Stardock or third parties will allow you to play in different markets such as automobiles, airlines, the defense industry, long distance service, you name it. I have to admit that I'm pretty excited about Entrepreneur, it's been something I've worked on for a couple of years now in design. With the revenue from our other game projects, we've been heavily investing in making Entrepreneur a truly next generation game. Some of the neat things it'll do: Totally real-time. A real-time game on a platform like OS/2 lets you see what real-time REALLY can be like. Multiplayer. If you're on a network, Entrepreneur will let you match wits with your friends. Entrepreneur WILL be multiplayer from the first release (i.e. there won't be a "Net-Entrepreneur", multiplayer abilities will be built in). The SDS/AI returns! Thought GalCiv was challenging? Now match your wits against the likes of Gil Bates and the Microhardware Empire. Check out Stardock's WWW page for more information: http://www.stardock.com The way it works is you pre-purchase the final version and the beta version is sent to you. Beta 1 went out to a small group of users in January. Since then, it has undergone major changes that reflect Stardock's improved resources to throw at its software projects. I encourage anyone interested in OS/2 gaming to check out our Entrepreneur page on our website. If it's your type of game, joining the beta is the most inexpensive way to get your hands on what may certainly be one of the hottest games (not just OS/2) to arrive this year!
