openunjam

Openunjam is a community-driven project dedicated to creating an open-source, community-maintained fork of the game Jam. The original game, Jam, was a popular real-time strategy game that is no longer actively developed or supported by its creators. Openunjam aims to revive and enhance the game by providing ongoing development, bug fixes, and new features contributed by its user base.

The project's primary goal is to preserve the gameplay experience of Jam while making it more accessible and adaptable for modern systems and player preferences. This involves reverse-engineering the original game's mechanics and code to build a compatible and extensible engine. Openunjam is developed under an open-source license, encouraging transparency and collaboration.

Development efforts focus on several key areas. These include improving network stability for multiplayer gameplay, updating graphics and user interface elements, and potentially introducing new game modes or unit types. The project also aims to foster a vibrant community around the game, providing platforms for players to share strategies, report bugs, and contribute to development. Openunjam is a testament to the power of community in keeping older, beloved games alive and evolving.
