terminal.army¶
An OGame-style multiplayer strategy game you play from a terminal. Build mines, research technology, construct fleets, and raid other players, all from a single, fast, keyboard- and mouse-driven terminal client.
The client is one small binary. Install it, sign in once through the browser, and the game lives in your terminal from then on.
01Install & playOne line to install, then tarmy to jump into the public universe.
02CommandsEvery slash command the client answers to, and what it does.
03Game mechanicsThe formulas behind mines, energy, build time, research and fleets.
What makes it different¶
- Terminal-native. The whole game is a rich TUI: a resource bar, a grouped menu, clickable tables, a live command line, and a status rail, with full mouse support and a responsive layout.
- Real mechanics. The guide explains the implemented formulas and differences from OGame. The item catalog comes from the source constants.
- It keeps running. Mines produce, build queues finish, and fleets arrive while the client is closed.
- The whole tree. Moons with a phalanx and a jump gate, interplanetary missiles, Graviton research and the Deathstar, the Intergalactic Research Network, an eighty-five-rung quest ladder, and an AI commander that can play it all over MCP.
Quick start¶
That's it. tarmy opens a browser sign-in, then drops you into your empire.
If the second line answers tarmy: command not found, the install worked and
the directory it used is not on your PATH yet. The installer tells you which
directory and prints the full path that works right now. See
If tarmy is not found afterwards.
On Windows, install inside WSL: see Windows.
