Enhancements:
- Rebuilt using futureproof libraries

Euphoria is simple, flexible, and easy to learn. The project outperforms all popular interpreted languages. Complete Reference Manual included. Lots of free example programs with full source. Makes .EXE files.
Theres also a Euphoria To C Translator that gives really high speed. An easy-to-use database system is also included. The Web site has over 1200 contributed Euphoria programs with source.
Main features:
- Euphoria programs run on Windows, DOS, Linux, and FreeBSD.
- The language is flexible, powerful, and easy to learn.
- There is no waiting for compiles and links - just edit and run.
- You can create and distribute a royalty-free, stand-alone .exe file.
- Dynamic storage allocation is fundamental to Euphoria. Variables grow or shrink in size without the programmer having to worry about allocating and freeing chunks of memory. Elements of an array (Euphoria sequence) can be a dynamic mixture of different types and sizes of data.
- Euphoria provides extensive run-time error checking for: out-of-bounds subscripts, uninitialized variables, bad parameter values for library routines, illegal value assigned to a variable, and many more. If something goes wrong youll get a full error message, with a call traceback and a listing of variable values. With other languages youll typically get protection faults with useless dumps of machine registers and addresses.
- The Euphoria interpreter is more than 30 times faster than either Perl or Python, and its considerably faster than all other interpreted languages, according to the "Great Computer Language Shootout" benchmark (see demobenchbench.doc).
- If that isnt enough, theres a Euphoria To C Translator that can translate any Euphoria program to C, and boost your speed even more. Why waste time debugging hand-coded C/C++? You can easily develop a Euphoria program, and then generate the C code.
- Euphoria programs are not constrained by any 640K memory restrictions for which MS-DOS is infamous. All versions of Euphoria let you use all the memory on your system, and if that isnt enough, a swap file on disk will provide additional virtual memory.
- An integrated, easy-to-use, full-screen source-level debugger/tracer is included.
- Both an execution-count profiler, and a time profiler are available.
- There is a large and rapidly growing collection of excellent 3rd party programs and libraries, most with full source code.
- RDS has developed an extremely flexible database system (EDS) that is portable across all Euphoria platforms.
- The WIN32 implementation of Euphoria can access any WIN32 API routine, as well as C or Euphoria routines in .DLL files. A team of people has developed a Windows GUI library (Win32Lib), complete with a powerful Interactive Development Environment. You can design a user interface graphically, specify the Euphoria statements to be executed when someone clicks, and the IDE will create a complete Euphoria program for you. There are Windows Euphoria libraries for Internet access, 3-D games, and many other application areas.
- The DOS32 implementation of Euphoria on MS-DOS contains a built-in graphics library. If necessary, you can access DOS software interrupts. You can call machine-code routines. You can even set up your own hardware interrupt handlers. Many high-speed action games, complete with Sound Blaster sound effects, have been developed 100% in Euphoria, without the need for any machine code.
- The Linux and FreeBSD implementations of Euphoria let you access C routines and variables in shared libraries, for tasks ranging from graphics, to X windows GUI programming, to Internet CGI programming. The good news is, youll be programming in Euphoria, not C.
- A complete open source (Public Domain) Euphoria interpreter, written in Euphoria, is included in the download package. It can execute any Euphoria program on any platform. An optional high-performance C-coded back-end for this interpreter is available for just $79. See the Source License.

A Tale in the Desert is a massively multiplayer role-playing game set in ancient Egypt.

It uses the internet to allow thousands of players to play together in the same world. All of the characters you will see and talk to in the game are controlled by other people just like you, not by a computer.

A Tale in the Desert is the first online game to focus on long-term planning and long-term goals rather than combat. Goals include the creation of great works of art and architecture, becoming a powerful leader, and building wealth.

Construction:

Objective: To build a base of operations.

Similarities to: Tropico, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Zeus, Capitalism

Explanation: Your base consists of machines that produce goods, ranging from simple objects like bricks and boards to highly customized goods like gearboxes, mixed paints, and cut gems.

The Challenge: Your base must be designed to operate efficiently and must take into account the values of the goods, supply, and demand.

Puzzles: As you unlock new technologies, you will need to figure out how they work and how you can use them to increase your efficiency.

Trading:

Objective: To make a profit trading goods and services with other players.

Similarities to: Master of Orion 2, Port Royale

Challenge 1: A Tale in the Desert contains too many goods for you to produce everything you need. You must trade to obtain the necessities.

Challenge 2: Learning skills is extremely expensive. To recoup the cost, you must figure out how to hire out your skills to other players.

Puzzles: You must figure out what your goods are worth, and what your time is worth. You must decide whether to give things away freely, and hope for generosity in return, or whether to trade on a more controlled, negotiated basis.

The Tests:

Objective: To increase your powers by performing ritual tests of character.

Similarities to: The multiplayer games you see on Reality TV shows.

The Challenge: There are dozens of different tests, each one a unique ritual that increases your powers. They run the gamut from building a pyramid, to breeding and exhibiting a scarab beetle, to winning a dueling tournament, to searching for hidden altars, to winning an election. They only have one thing in common: they all require you to strategize against other players.

Lawmaking:

Objective: To lift Egypt out of anarchy into true civilization.

The Challenge: A civilization must have rules: rules about who gets to own which piece of land, rules about what kind of pollution is permitted, rules about inappropriate behavior, rules about who gets to benefit from your research labors, rules about who owns which vein of ore. Egyptians must choose these rules for themselves.

The Puzzle: Can you do better than the real governments of today? Can you create a truly fair and just society?

ThinkTanks is a tank combat game designed to be a blast for the new and experienced gamer alike with lighthearted, fast paced pandemonium.
Either battling against brain-hungry bots in solo play or going head-to-head against others online, ThinkTanks has something for everyone.
Main features:
Tanks and special Weapons:
- Drive one of three tanks: light, medium and heavy. The light tank is quick, but with weaker armor. The heavy tank is an armored beast with a honkin weapon, and the medium tank is the best of both worlds. All the tanks can use weapon powerups, which give extra-special shots, and are just the thing for getting out of tight spots and racking up points. In addition to super-speed and area-effect projectiles, there are bounce back projectiles that bounce and skitter across the terrain and explode with deadly effect when they are near another tank.
Multiple Worlds:
- The richly detailed and vibrant worlds of ThinkTanks are designed to provide you with different challenges on different worlds. The rolling hills and lush valleys are great for long range sniping and dogfighting. The dark and spooky missions are harder to navigate, and you must keep your wits about you or you may get ambushed by others lurking in the shadows. The skatepark-like lava fields are great for highflying mayhem and aerial assaults. All the missions offer their own unique challenge and will provide hours of fun as you seek to refine and improve your fighting skills.
Bots:
- ThinkTanks Bots are some of the wackiest and interesting hunks of metal this side of the Crab Nebula. The cold-cunning and eagle eyes of the master HUM-Bot (and his annoying sidekick Ri-Bot) inspires fear in all. The strong and steady presence of the Bot Twins, Gul-Bot and Tom-Bot will give you a run for your money while the berserk Mal-Bot dives headlong off cliffs and runs circles around the dim-witted Gum-Bot.
Customize the experience:
- Custom Game creation and Bot Configuration allow for a true custom mission design enabling you to create custom battle scenarios. The Auto Drop Feature allows you to configure an online game and populate it with Bots who drop out when Humans join in. Password Protected Servers allow the player to keep out anyone but those they give the password to, allowing for private games with your close friends or for solo training missions. Our Child-Safe Filter can turn off player and server names and in-game chat messages, so parents can feel secure knowing their children will not be subjected to verbal abuse by "less-than-savory" characters.
