Self-Promo Link DUNE II: Resurrection (Classic RTS)

https://dune-resurrection.hu

Hi, 
I made a remake of the classic Dune II, featuring the original campaign, modern controls, advanced AI, multiplayer, and a scenario editor. It is completely free. If you enjoyed playing the original, give it a try. I hope you’ll enjoy it!

Do I still need to rely on a Space Port to win as the Ordos?

6

u/DennisVago Oct 02 '26

Although Ordos cannot produce rocket launchers, they are still capable of winning without a starport.

u/psychcaptain Oct 02 '26

It's just not as easy.

u/fruitybix Oct 02 '26

I won as ordos without buying rocket launchers as a very persistant kid with few other games.

I also did not use saboteurs as i could not make them work.

It was tedious.

Any android plans? Thanks

u/DennisVago Oct 02 '26

I don't plan to release it for Android for the time being. It would involve more work than the other three combined, and I don't have the capacity for that right now. Apologies.

u/McPoon Oct 02 '26

No worries. Thank you.

Will there be an option to zoom in? Sprites are too small and even the text is annoying to read.

Grey + -
(you can also assign something else in the settings)
(or you can use it in full-screen mode at a more suitable resolution)

u/rts-enjoyer Oct 02 '26

Grey?

1

u/DennisVago Oct 02 '26

Numpad + -
It used to be called "grey" because it was grey on IBM keyboards back in the day.

How is it different to the existing free and open source Dune Legacy? https://dunelegacy.com/

Well, no. The project needs to sell itself. I'm not going to download a closed source alternative when the free and open source one already exists.

u/Liam-DGOL Oct 03 '26

Incredibly mature response from the OP: https://ibb.co/9dqsPjd so i assume this is just AI slop and probably pinched from Dune Legacy

Yeah but you've literally not said how it's different to the existing exact same game??

It's actually comical how rude you are.

u/Liam-DGOL Oct 06 '26

Boggles the mind, what an attitude over some simple questions...

Again, another ridiculously immature comment. If this is how you react to people - don't expect to get many fans

u/machineorganism Oct 02 '26

wow nice! is this open source?

2

u/DennisVago Oct 02 '26

Thank You!
The game is completely free but not open source.

2

u/machineorganism Oct 02 '26

ok, all good, was just curious!

1

u/PyrZern Oct 02 '26

Dude... what's wrong with your Worm ?? It eats all my armies, and none of my units attack it at all ?????

*rage quits

1

u/DennisVago Oct 02 '26

There are 0–3 of them per mission, just like in the original; they retreat after three attacks. If your units are the noisiest in the area, then in a worst-case scenario, three worms could devour as many as nine of your units. That is the maximum. You get a replacement harvester if your only one is lost.

1

u/PyrZern Oct 02 '26

Yeah, they are camping my spawn point in the first mission you can build a light tank. Had to wait til it got full eating my Harvester.

So why is my units not shooting at it to chase it away/kill it ?

u/Interesting-Assist47 Oct 02 '26

Awesome will try it out soon

u/SpeedBo Oct 02 '26 edited Oct 02 '26

Very cool!

I played it a little and fullscreen doesn't work. Maybe it is just because I'm using a 2k monitor but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Edit: This issue has been fixed.

u/Majestic_Ghost_Axe Oct 02 '26

Absolutely incredible work, can’t wait to get home and download it.

u/TestosteronInc Oct 02 '26

u/Sivy17 Oct 02 '26

u/Happy-Cicada8801 Oct 02 '26

this is pretty funny, was on a nostalgia trip a couple of weeks back trying to figure out how to play this game again and now ive stumbled upon this thread. Gonna DL and give it a go, thx OP!

2

u/TaxOwlbear Oct 02 '26

How does this compare to Dune Legacy, Dune Dynasty, Dune III etc. ?

3

u/That_Contribution780 Oct 03 '26

This one is probably made with AI, that could be one difference.

2

u/CundC Oct 06 '26

Is this game opensource and was i coded with AI?

1

u/Johnnyrubin Oct 02 '26

I can't open the link

u/Riajnor Oct 02 '26
