This kind of game isn't really a hi-score kind of game (you may also be aware of other games such as Age of Empires, or Command and Conquer Generals...None of these games have hi-scores).

Yes, I think there is going to be multiplayer later on (Via IR, BT, and Internet, I think...).

I agree with DBZ-GOKU- this game isnt for that type of thing is you dissagree please tell me how it would use that feature. :D

DBZ-GOKU-: how did you become a bata tester?
How can I become one for the next release or this one if it is still going for some reason? :?:

I am a beta tester all over the place (about ten seperate developers, some bigger than others). I was chosen for this beta test. You would probably want to start by signing up at other places, such as Astraware or Beardedtoad. If you have experience, tell them about it (and tell me here too). ;)

Well then, go start finding places to beta test (Astraware would probably be one of the best, www.astraware.com).

Oh. Well, just sidn up. If you sign up (like at Astraware...it's free), you can test when ever they have games. Right now there are quite a few games in beta there, and tons more to come.

Lets get back on subject...

[quote="orol"]are there any plans for supporting multiplayer (let's say over bluetooth) ?
and what about hiscores ? I mean hiscores ala astraware on-line hiscores[/quote]

I think that Multiplayer would be cool,
and i thought of a way that High scores could be used:

:D You could be scored buy the time taken to Complete mission,men lost,buildings destroyed,ect. :D

wront, every RTS has got some kind of hiscore .. eventhough it's not much of importance since RTS are usually played as multiplayer games :-)
only dune2 which was the first REAL RTS, didn't have mutliplayer .. but even dune2 had hiscore table

You said it your self, "it is of no real importance," so it would be pointless to add.

No, BugLord doesn't. BugLord would be an awesome game if it wree faster like Warfare (and had hi-res).
