Features

Argentum features an advanced graphics and game engine with many cool features.

Visual features

Smooth landscapes Argentum uses a smooth landscape engine with hills and valleys that not only makes the game more visually appealing but enhances the strategy elements of the game. No repetitive terrain in sight!

Realtime shadows Hills casts shadows on units and flying units casts shadows on the ground.

Alpha blended sprites Every sprite in Argentum uses alpha blending that allows them to be semitransparent. This eliminates "jaggies" on unit edges and allows the game to use smooth unit shadows, mindblowing explosions and amazing smoke effects!

Smoke Damaged units and buildings that soon will collapse have a pillar of smoke coming out of them. Move a unit and the smoke will be as a trail behind it!

Multi level gamma control You can experience Argentum even in a poorly lit environment thanks to the gamma control options in the game. Devices with dark displays will also be able to enjoy Argentum as it was meant to be.

Automatic performance adjustment The game detects the performance of the game in realtime and adjusts the game accordingly by reducing number of explosions and smoke. Generally you won't even see any visual difference, but you will still keep great framerates

Gameplay features

14 Missions Argentum takes you from lush hillsides to barren moon deserts and even down into hot volcanic areas. Due to the advanced landscape engine in Argentum not two missions look the same.

Scripted missions Objectives can change midway through the missions and reinforcements can arrive when you preform well. Nothing is static in Argentum.

Advanced AI Enemies will not only defend their own interests, they will seek you down and attack you where it hurts the most.
