SettleIn is an open source game to play cities, towns, roads and ships on a hexbased board (map). Written in C#, based on WPF framework. Initial commit is purely my hobby code for my own pleasure. Have fun forking! When I feel like it, I'll update this wiki with some screenshots and guides on how to get a working build which does not crash at startup.

Initially, I found WPF/.NET intersting so I decided to write a game in it. Eventually, I realized WPF seems nice but is flogged with patent trolling. So, I mentioned it on Reddit, and there was some interest in sharing the code, which I did. I do not intend to develop this further unless some people get enthusiastic over it and swamp me with forks.

The idea is to port the code to WebGL, HTML5, CSS and Javascript. We still may use C# as backend, but probably Python or Ruby would be preferred here.

Probably won't build on Windows, since the map files are missing. I'll upload those as soon as possible.

Why this project rocks

  • It's an actual 3D implementation of the popular boardgame
  • It should be ported to HTML5+WebGL+Javascript+CSS3

Why this project sucks

  • Not entirely based on open source (due to WPF .NET dependency)
