Description

Screeps is a real-time strategy game for programmers, where the core mechanic is programming your units’ AI. You control your colony by writing JavaScript which operate 24/7 in the single persistent real-time world filled by other players on par with you. Players create and manage their own colonies, build structures, harvest resources, and battle for control of the world. Players can extend their colonies with their own custom code, and also compete with other players for resources and territory. The game has a unique open-ended sandbox approach, where the goal is to build an efficient and successful colony. Players are able to construct their own custom structures and code, which allows for a wide range of creative strategies and tactics. The game is played in real-time, with a global leaderboard to compare progress and rankings between players. The game also has an active modding and scripting community, which has developed a number of tools and scripts to help players automate their colonies and increase their efficiency.
