iKonquest
iKonquest is a simple turn-based strategy multiplayer game of galactic conquest. The object is to conquer the entire (2 dimensional) galaxy. Each planet produces a fixed number of ships every turn. The game currently can only be played with other players. No AI has been programmed yet. It's a simple game similar to risk without the border restrictions.
The original game was created by Rick Raddatz in 1987. A second game for the K desktop environment called Konquest was developed initially prior to 1999? by Russell Steffen. Much of the concept was borrowed from the Konquest source repository.

| Everything except for what was listed in the credits. | Average | Well one part of the game requires or at least could use a rating system. I chose to go with the ELO system but couldn't seem to get the formulas to work right. I decided to go to bed and think about it for tomorrow. I actually dreamed the formula I was to use that night. It was kind of scary to actually dream of math and formulas but at least I got something I'm proud of now. |
