Plot and gameplay
Plot and gameplay
The player takes control of Argentinian forces and tries to take back the Malvinas Islands from Britain. It takes place in 2032, on the 50th anniversary of the Malvinas War.
Development
Development
Javier Otaegui serves as the project lead. In 1996 he read in the local newspaper that Conde Entertainment Software had just won an international prize for real-time strategy Regnum, the first Argentinian CD release which sold over 10,000 copies. Otaegui was inspired by this moment, later recalling that he thought "If someone has already made a game in Argentina, maybe I can do the same". The game took three years of development and led to Otaegui starting his own company, Sabarasa. He considered it a "tribute" to the combatants killed in the war. The game's development began in March 1996, taking around 3.5 years to complete. During that time the team created their gaming engine and converted it from DOS to DirectX. GarageDeveloper International published the game in English.
