The most complete programming game I've played. You have to balance between resource gathering, combat, and territorial control, lending a wonderful level of complexity to the programmer. Better documentation and/or a side editor might make the barrier to entry a bit lower, though. More games like this, please!

Best programming game I've played.

This is a very neat project. I spend maybe a couple hours a week tinkering with my bots and examining others. It has good promise for extensibility and porting, and I for one will be watching it for the foreseeable future.
