The 0 A.D. Book
This book is about 0 A.D., a free, open-source, historical Real Time Strategy (RTS) game currently under development by Wildfire Games, a global group of volunteer game developers. The game stands out as one of the longest-running open source games, and throughout its history has received numerous awards and brought together a solid community of contributors, including designers, programmers and musicians. In this way, throughout the chapters of this book, you can learn about not only the characteristics of the game but also a little of the history of its development, its technical challenges, and efforts to be faithful to the historical aspects, as the game puts a strong emphasis on historical accuracy.
