📜️ "A fork of the Zod Engine, and a libre, single-player / multi-player remake of the classic RTS game Commander Zod" 📜️ .

Zed Online is a remake of the classic strategy game Commander Zod (or just Z).

Over the last 10 years or so, several projects have been started to bring back Commander Zod to live on modern technology. One of them was the Zod Engine by FreakNigh (Nighsoft). The Zod Engine is a great contribution to the community and brought us all back to those days again.

Based on the Zod Engine, DaMarkov started a fork called “Zed Online” and continued the development by adding a user interface, online multiplayer support and much more. Other contributors, including the ZZone, joined DaMarkov in his endeavor to bring back the game to the fans.

Zed Online est un remake du jeu de stratégie classique Commander Zod (ou simplement Z).

Depuis une dizaine d'années, plusieurs projets ont été lancés pour faire revivre Commander Zod grâce à la technologie moderne. L'un d'eux était the Zod Engine de FreakNigh (Nighsoft). Le moteur Zod est une grande contribution à la communauté et nous a tous ramenés à cette époque.

Sur la base du moteur Zod, DaMarkov a lancé un fork appelé "Zed Online" et a poursuivi le développement en ajoutant une interface utilisateur, un support multijoueur en ligne et bien plus encore. D'autres contributeurs, dont la ZZone, ont rejoint DaMarkov dans son effort pour ramener le jeu aux fans.
