Remember Z, the original from 1996, not Steel Soldiers? The RTS where time was the only resource: no mining, no base building, just flags, territory and factories that build faster the more ground you hold. It turned 30 this year, so I rebuilt it in 3D in Unity with several of the classic levels. Version 1.1 just came out with a jungle level, a flying shuttle and Alan and Brad as a hero squad.
It’s free and open source (code GPL-3.0, assets CC BY-NC-SA), nothing is sold, and it’s not affiliated with Rebellion or The Bitmap Brothers.

Would love to hear from anyone who played the original. What did you love or hate about it?
It was either you are on top of everything or on the back foot losing there was nothing in-between
So true. Lose one flag and suddenly the whole map turns against you. That is what made it so tense.
