general info

AntiWar is a simple shooter.
Evil US aircrafts are attacking you and your brothers. Now it's about to defend yourself.

In order to get the whole thing a bit more interesting, you can upgrade your people and rockets (e.g. stronger/faster rockets)
Controls:

Left mouse button = left turret
Right mouse button = right turret

Important note: In order to be successful, it's necessary to target aircrafts, until the crosshair turns red (about 1 sec.)
This time may be reduced when you buy an aim upgrade (rightmost).
Frequently asked questions
How can I play Antiwar

Go get yourself the newest version of Antiwar for Windows, Linux or Mac. Unpack the archive and execute "antiwar" in the directory. You'll need winzip or winrar for extracting. You can download e.g. winrar at http://www.rarlab.de/.
I got (6x10^23)! points :-) How can I make that public to the world ??

In the game you can start matches (Time Attack/Internet), that are stored in the internet.
The crucial item is the time needed, because all other factors influence this value. (Who buys well, is faster, the same goes for good aiming)
. If the time is the same, the score decides. It's computed as follows:
((MONEY/10)*3
*(UNSTOPPABLE / UNSTOPPABLE_MAX+1))
/(HUMAN_DEAD/3)+1


Warning: Arcade is amokk hard, we need 18-60 mins. As a b00n, rather try Mangoo first.
I got one mouse button only, how the hell can I fire with both turrets?

As an alternative to the mouse buttons, you're able to play the game with the left and right arrow keys.
Why does the game run that slowly? Why are there graphic errors?

With some video devices, problems with graphics may occur. Maybe graphics aren't drawn correctly, the game runs slow or the screen's flickering. This may happen because the video card isn't capable of OpenGL or drivers are outdated. Then, effects are created in software mode and everything's slowed down. Update your video drivers and it's fine. However, fullscreen is much faster than window mode. So switch to fullscreen in options.
Why is the game never saved, when I make a level or I change something in the options?

When Antiwar refuses to save, it's probably due to the fact that the /data folder in the game dir is read-only.
when i start antiwar, i get this error:
foobar@linux:~/antiwar> ./antiwar ./antiwar: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory foobar@linux:~/antiwar>

Go to "Download", "Misc" and download hotfix

And again, there's a new version of Antiwar.
These are the changes:

* Added buyscript, you can use 1-9 keys to buy multiple things. More info in data/buyscript.txt
Using this, you can buy much faster. In order to kinda compensate this advantage, every purchase will be "punished" with 100 ms time.
* Internet Highscore now works correctly
* Optimized Autobuy. No works also in levels with many constant prices (e.g. Endmaster)
* Sound for Feuerware logo included
* Menu background altered

In the next days, Antiwar 1.4's gonna be released, with custom buyscripts and optimized autobuy function. Furthermore, we may proudly announce that Antiwar breached the 1000 downloads perimeter (+ 900 dls @ winload.de, ca 2000 in total)

Da einige Fehler mit der Internerthighscore auftraten kommt jetzt noch schnell 1.36(Windows). Folgendes wurde geändert:

# Schwabbeleffekt für aufpoppende Bomben und Flugzeuge eingebaut. Sieht jetzt deutlich besser aus, wenn ein Flugzeug eine Bombe wirft
# Bei der Internethighscore gab es Probleme, wenn ein Leerzeichen im Levelname vorkam.
# Geldeffekt für jeden Menschen am Ende einer Runde, so ist leichter zu ersehen dass man durch Menschen Geld kriegt.
# Pausiert man das Spiel, wird die Zeit nicht mehr wie bisher weitergezählt
# AutoBuyKnopf, kauft immer das billigste (max 10 Menschen, 10 Raketen) Drückt man den Autobuyknopf, bekommt man 10 Strafsekunden, was für die Story egal ist

Internet highscore

From now, you can mess with other players in the internet.
Fight for the best time and the highest score.
From now, only the fastest one survives.
Smaller improvements:

* fixed disply bug at the EndmasterHP bar occuring after heavy rumble
* mangoo level: slightly increased human HP + weakened bomb special
* fixed crosshair loading error, default crosshair wasn't loaded at default levels
* new score computation ((MONEY/10)*3*(UNSTOPPABLE / UNSTOPPABLE_MAX+1))/(HUMAN_DEAD/3)+1
* removed Aladin
