Hoplite v0.97 file

This is patch 0.97, the third version of the BETA. If you are already playing the game, it is recommended that you upgrade to version 0.97. Changes can be found below.

Journey back to Ancient Greece and help defend your city-state against the onslaught of barbarians from all sides! Complete with original isometric-esque graphics, animated trees, spoken lines, and many more features, this game will promise you short but rapid gameplay.

Beware: You WILL need a fairly powerful computer to play this game. At least 1 GB of RAM is suggested!

I would also suggest that you change your video settings so the game is 640x480, windowed (it looks best in that aspect ratio/scale).

Please leave suggestions and feedback either here or in the forums so I can improve the game. Even just rating it helps!
