## What is RedSun RTS?

RedSun is a prime example of the genre classic RTS, unjustly forgotten today.
In this game you directly and, as is self-explanatory name for the genre, real-time control of troops, build a base, plan attacks and to strengthen the defense on the battlefield. At your disposal different types of units - each ones with their own objectives, strengths and weaknesses.
Also, do not forget that the game is just beginning to develop. We, in its turn, will make every effort to develop the game and not let you get bored.
This is just the beginning.

The game is made in 2D isometric style.

The game features:
- Virtually unchanged classical control, with the addition of new features, as well as multiselect units from one to several. 
On screens with HD and FHD use the zoom if you can see finely.
- Building base with classic MCV anywhere on the map (double-click on the engineering machine), as well as other technological structures.
Mining crystals harvesters.
- Powerful weapon in the form of a nuclear explosion (soon there will be other, and it is possible to purchase a quantitative stock)
System improvements Arsenal for the development of new units.
Achievements and medals.

Differences from other games, so-called strategic:
- There is no dependence on donation, i.e., in the game at the moment, there are no internal purchases.
- Create any number of units and buildings, there are almost no restrictions, in addition to the resources of the device, otherwise it will lag. 

In addition, do not forget that the game is only the beginning of its development in the early autumn, and we in turn will do our best to develop the game and not let You get bored.

Thank You for the criticism, reviews, positive comments, suggestions, we first try to make a game good old time RTS strategies of the late 90's and early 2000, to correct errors and shortcomings in the game in time, and to help players understand the mechanics of the game, though it is not particularly simple.

P. S. To update the maps and other content, it is desirable to have always included the Internet.

### 3/5 — Mission bug

*2026-06-17, version 1.270*

No matter how many times I complete the missions it won’t advance to mission 2 on all campaigns

### 3/5 — Like the game - all descriptions in opening of game don’t work

*2026-06-15, version 1.270*

Like the game but has some bugs that need to get solved - the beginning screens have huge white areas that text or graphics should be in to explain what I am buying or your explaining what it is is blank.   Please fix - its not a huge bug but to begin the game with all explanations as white areas makes you feel sad - i have an IPAD M5 Pro

### 4/5 — Could be incredibly good

*2026-05-28, version 1.269*

As I said in the title this COULD be so good. Think old school command and conquer. But instead the second mission is so ridiculous that at no point do you even have time to defend yourself before an absolute barrage of enemy appear and kill you and destroy base. Zero time or resources to even take a stab. It’s such a shame because I really want to play it. It’s exactly what I was looking for. until I get wiped out inside 3 minutes in the first mission that’s not the mega simple tutorial. But I really love this game. It’s excellent. It just needs ironing out

### 2/5 — RTS…too hard basket.

*2026-03-17, version 1.116*

If you came here looking for a C&C type thing don’t bother. The game gets unplayable very quickly.

### 5/5 — It’s good

*2026-03-05, version 1.116*

There are some issues, mainly on newer iPhones the UI is hidden away behind the rounded corners of the display or behind the Dynamic Island. Tutorials could be a little more in depth, but overall a good game. It’s entertaining and isn’t constantly trying to sell you something. Good job to the developer.

### 3/5 — This game looks fun but the controls suck

*2026-02-24, version 1.115*

So I love the original command and Conquerer types of games. And I’ve been trying a few different games that are similar to it like this game. So for the campaign, it seems like it only lets me choose the first  training mission only. It doesn’t allow me continue to the other ones. Even with the random code it provides at the end of the first mission when you complete it. I’ve tried to put it in the menu screen for it in the campaign thing and I don’t even think it did anything and I also don’t even know what it does. So instead of continuing the campaign I decided to try out the missions and they seem to be cool. But the ore collector don’t seem to listen to me when I want it to go somewhere else to collect ore. So when I make 3 more of the ore collector vehicles they just go around in circles doing nothing at all while the 1st one is collecting ore, even when there’s a completely new pile of ore to collect from further away, they just sit there and do nothing. So then when I want to make more buildings or troops or whatever I don't really have that much money. Because only one of the ore collectors is collecting. I also feel like the ore fields should give out more money when the ore collectors go back to the base because there’s a lot of other troops or vehicles that cost +$10k to $40k or so when you get further into the building upgrades. And with the slow amounts of money coming in. I would never make it to any of those other upgrades, and if I do make it and the enemy destroys the troops or whatever then I have to get it again, and it’s such a waste. And also I think the ore fields should still pump out more crystal ore stuff because the fields dry out really fast. And the enemy base just keeps sending stuff troops and stuff out and it seems like they never run out of money themselves. Anyways other then those things the game seems to be good so far.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-02-02, version 1.115*

Graphics are poor

### 4/5 — Very fun game

*2025-11-25, version 1.113*

Very fun game but it is kind of if buggy and glitchy, on iPhone it isn’t well optimized

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2025-09-22, version 1.113*

Solid game. Controls are a little clunky but to be expected for a mobile game. 

Really need a read me or how to file to explain all the different units!

### 5/5 — Like playing Red Alert and Tiberian Sun

*2025-09-14, version 1.113*

Like the title says - I do like this a lot it has the old CnC vibe
