I’m glad to anounce that Conquerors[1][2] now runs on the facebook platform using the graph API. There are some kinks left to iron out – we’re definitely still in beta mode – but hey, it’s playable! Check it out here (you’ll need a facebook account).

I just finished a draft version of Conquerors (cfr my previous post). You are most welcome to try it out. If you find any bugs (and I’m sure you will) please file a bug report in the bugs section. Should you have any other suggestion or concerns, I encourage you to contact me through the comments section of this post or the bug section. Thanks in advance!
PS/ Please don’t abuse the bugs section.
__EDIT__
Conquerors is no longer available as a standalone application, you’ll need facebook to acces it: http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=140534609319721
CS5 has a nasty[0][1] bug that corrupts your files when you save them as CS5 files. When trying to open my file I got one of the following random errors depending on what I did:
“An error occured opening the file ‘xyz.fla’.”
“Flash can not parse this document.”
“A javascript error occured, can’t find ‘xyz.fla’.”
fig. all my work, lost ?
To me this is unacceptable and I almost thought I’d lost 4 days of work (my backups were corrupted too). But here’s how I solved it:
1. make a copy of the corrupt file ‘xyz.fla’ and rename it to ‘copy.zip’
2. open it with WinRAR
3. go to Tools > Repair Archive and save the repaired archive ‘fixed.zip’
4. rename the repaired archive to ‘fixed.fla’ and open it
Phew!
