TIC-COMMAND!
AN RTS FOR THE TIC-80 BY JOHN REDER (TACTICAL NEURONICS)
YOU COMMAND AN ARMY THROUGH YOUR REMOTE COMMAND VEHICLE. YOUR GOAL IS TO DESTROY THE ENEMY'S COMMANDER BEFORE HIS ARMY DESTROYS YOURS. YOU HAVE A SATELLITE UPLINK, RADAR DRONES, AND A RADIO LINK TO GIVE ORDERS TO YOUR ROBOTIC SOLDIERS!

GAME-PLAY TIPS:
NOTE THAT YOU ONLY SEE CLOAKED ENEMY UNITS WITHIN RANGE OF YOUR ROBOTS, OR WHEN THEY ATTACK, OR WITH YOUR DRONES AS YOU FLY OVER THEM. THEY RE-CLOAK AFTER A SHORT TIME IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY UNITS CLOSE BY TO TRACK THEM.

CLOAKED ENEMY UNITS DO CAUSE MOVEMENT IN TREES AND IN WATER. IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY, YOU MAY LEARN WHERE THEY ARE HIDING.

TREES AND WATER SLOW UNITS DOWN AS WELL AS LIMIT THEIR SIGHT RANGE FOR TARGETING.

YOUR CANNONS HAVE THE BEST RANGE. IF YOU APPROACH ENEMY GROUPINGS SLOWLY AND FROM OPEN LAND YOU CAN PICK THEM OFF FROM OUTSIDE OF THEIR TARGETING RANGE.

atesin	#19207 hi.... is this like herzog zwei?, i dont understand the gameplay... i am too accustomed to rts games like dune, cnc, warcraft and aoe anyway, looks awesome
redej0	#19296 The basic gameplay is to select the units in your army surrounded by the box with one key, then once you have selected all desired units, place the box on the desired location you'd want them to try to travel to, and click the other button. The goal id to find the blue army command center and destroy it while protecting your own. Other screens are radar views and for targeting units close to your command center with its local weapons or launching recon drones to see enemies near by. You can only see enemy units seen by your army or recon drones aka Fog of War.
