Flip Future

Game Information

Short Introduction: 
Flip Future is a game based off the idea that extinction is inevitable; we can only fight to prolong it. As the player, you must engage in the battle between two warring factions on an torn and desolate expanse. But there's a twist; as you slowly eek the battle in favor of one of these two factions, you will be 'flipped' to the other faction and be forced to face your own creations!
Platform/System: 
Windows
Brief Play Description: 

Game play begins as the player is assigned to one of the two sides of the stalemate. The player can then place one of three different buildings, based on the game's current progression, onto the field to spawn more units.

The game progresses once the player has pushed his/her opponent back to more than half of their units, whereupon the player than takes the place of the opponent. The player must continually battle their own creations until they finally lose.

The goal of the game is to survive for as long as possible by surviving subsequent 'flips'. 'Flips' are the quantifiable score of the game.

(Currently, there is no way to visually determine how many Flips you've survived. You'll just have to count along in your head!)

Installation Notes: 

UPDATE:
Whoo! Folder structure issue solved. Just install the game as game as mentioned below.

----------------------------------------------------------------

In order to play the game, if you do not have XNA installed, you must install the Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 3.1 which can be found at:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=53867a2a-e24...

After this has been installed, extract the zipped archive to an empty folder (eg. Flip/) and run Flip.exe.

There is a known issue involving slowdown during gameplay due to unoptimized rendering.
