0 A.D. (pronounced “zero ey-dee”) is a free, open-source, cross-platform real-time strategy (RTS) game of ancient warfare. In short, it is a historically-based war/economy game that allows players to relive or rewrite the history of Western civilizations, focusing on the years between 500 B.C. and 500 A.D. The project is highly ambitious, involving state-of-the-art 3D graphics, detailed artwork, sound, and a flexible and powerful custom-built game engine.

The game has been in development by Wildfire Games (WFG), a group of volunteer, hobbyist game developers, since 2001. The code and data are available under the GPL license, and the art, sound and documentation are available under CC-BY-SA. In short, we consider 0 A.D. an an educational celebration of game development and ancient history.

We’re looking for some community support. The game is moving along slowly with the great help from community member code contributions. But we’d like to make some leaps and bounds. Help us pay a developer of 0 A.D, who is familiar with the code, to work on the game for a month.

This is an opportunity to help out a ground breaking game. Nothing like this exists which works cross-platform, and has as much detail, and it’s FREE to download and play! Your contributions will help gamers worldwide.

If we don’t achieve the amount we need for a full month, we’ll get as many full 8 hour days as possible from it, and any left over will be put aside to help with maintaining the website and the SVN servers we use for developers.
