It's been a long time since there was an update, can't they at least make use of the retina display? Surely this game could use a refresher, it's become a bit stagnant in the App Store. It's really not that difficult I don't see why the creator doesn't do something. |

Sure retina display would work, it's about making the game look polished. The resolution right now looks slightly blurry & same with the icon. Also I've modded many RTS games, it's really not that hard to make new units, new missions, and new structures. I'm talking about a nice small update to breathe life into an awesome game. (arguably the best RTS on the iOS).
Also I realize maybe this game is so old the creator doesn't have the original assets used to create the game, so if the units and graphics were specifically designed for a certain resolution, a whole rework of the graphics would be necessary. So I guess I see how that would be tedious if the creator no longer had an interest in this game. It would just be nice if the creator would be more vocal and more present I guess. Like taking the time to respond to this message. |

Athlos wrote: | The resolution right now looks slightly blurry & same with the icon. | I often wished scott would update WI even if all it was was a retina icon. WI makes your homescreen look bad with that non retina icon.
I actually made (I modified existing art by Spiffcode) retina WI icon but your device needs to be jailbroken to use it.

Athlos wrote: | It would just be nice if the creator would be more vocal and more present I guess. Like taking the time to respond to this message. | Yeah. I wish he'd be a little more open about what's going on (like keeping us updated on the opensource progress) as well as posting on the forums more. It doesn't take much time to post every day or two. _________________ Warfare Incorporated Development |

Just wondering, if its opensourced who updates the game? _________________ "All held the finite and infinite as unrelated. None could foresee that the history of the two would become one." |

We hypothesized that there would be one main WI app which Scott would have full control over, then there would be other apps maintained by other developers. It's possible that there would be a method for integrating others' developments into the main WI app. _________________ You've just been |
