Spring: 1944

Spring: 1944 Development Team | Released Jan 28, 2009

Legions of infantry, tanks, artillery guns and more await your command. Take up arms under the Stars & Stripes, Iron Cross, Hammer & Sickle, or Union Jack, then command your troops to brutal victory. Hundreds of units, custom maps, deep and fast-paced real-time-strategy play. The scale? Epic. The gameplay? Intense. The cost? Zero - Spring: 1944 is not a "mod" of a commercial effort, but a from-scratch game developed using the open source Spring Engine. In terms of other modern RTS - Spring: 1944 is the golden mean between Supreme Commander and Company of Heroes.

Report article Media and status update

Our first release was a bit rough, but we're working to fix the bugs and adding lots of cool new content in the meantime.

While our first release (and subsequent bugfixes) did not go entirely spectacularly (here thar be dragons/crashbugs....), we are working hard to hunt down and eliminate said bugs. Unfortunately in the meantime we're pulling the buggy release off the net.

However, just to show what we've been up to (and prove that we haven't exactly been idle...), I've put a bunch of screens up recently, including the first batch of planes, and the lovable German Tigg'r (hoo hoo hoo HOO!).

ALSO we've put up some little vids to show off recent developments.

These include planes: (excuse the few rough patches like lack of landing gears and such - the airfield code is the first of its kind in Spring - thanks go to Zpock for an awesome job)

and a longer dogfight (mind the volume!)

And the Katyusha weapon (also mind the volume..sorry!)

As always, more screenshots and forums may be found at:
