The game development has been very "test-driven" in the sense that the game quickly was made playable and that features and changes were added and removed continuously during development. This hopefully improves gameplay, but of course at the expense of dramatically increased development time.
Realms of rivalry was never intended to "soothe the masses", but were made entirely to match the game that we ourselves would like to play - something we have done for many, many hours :-) But of course, some of you might enjoy this game aswell, and that is why we decided to share it with you!.

Tales of Middle Earth (ToME) is a fantasy adventure game, based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. It is a game that emphasizes intricate, challenging, and varied gameplay over graphics.
Hundreds of different monsters in randomly-generated, unpredictable dungeons will strive to slay you by various means, and you counter - if you survive - by developing the skills of your choice and wielding mighty artifacts.
ToMEs races from Hobbit to Troll and classes from Swordmaster to Summoner allow for many different playing styles and a replay value that extends through years.
The only game so realistic that your scrolls and spell books will burn if you trudge in lava (unless you have gained immunity from some armour), you will dry up rivers to cast mighty spells, strike at orcs with blades attuned to slay them specifically, summon armies from a simple totem, and even forge your own artifacts.
There is an entire community to help you with the game, and it is far from static - ToME is a developing game, always improving. And best of all, its free.
Enhancements:
- Fix window position saving on Mac OS
- Remove buggy trap of Stair Movement
- Fix typo in one monsters flags
- Fix word wrapping in character sheet

Secret of Eternia project is a 2D RPG using ClanLib.
The eaisest way to get started is to use an example map from the game itself. Open up (File-Open) the first map in the maps/ folder (maps/1.fmp). You will notice that the map looks exactly like the first screen of the game demo!
You will notice the screen is divided into 2 main sections. The larger section is the preview of the map you are working on. The left side menu is a listing of all avaliable blocks that you currently have in the map. You can click on a block to set it as your current brush. This is similar to choosing a paint color in a paint program. Once you select a block, you can then edit the map by clicking in the map area. This is the generic way to edit the map.
Play around with this map to create some different landscapes and such using many blocks. You can even save the map and start up SoE to see your changes! (Make sure you have a backup of the original map, or you will have to download the game again).
Enhancements:
- Bug fixes! See the forum for detailed information.
- Lua support is added in. (see docs/ for how to use this)
- Lighting effects are here!
- Fully Working Windows Support

There is quite a bit of history on this item. One of the assignments in a computer graphics course at the University of Victoria was to rotate a number of Bezier curves around an axis and display the result in 3D using a single light source.

This was on Sun Sparcs using X. Since then the program has mutated to match my platform preference at a given time (DOS, Windows, Linux).

The latest mutation has been to SDL/OpenGL and the result runs happily on Linux and Windows. Screenshot junkies might find the following of interest:
