Spoils of War

Post by SilientP »

Greetings Battlezone Friends -

It's been a long time but I wanted to reach back out to this Forum. Years back you all participated in a hobby forum we had to create an RTS/FPS game for PC. Well, after all these years the finish line is finally in view. We posted an in-game video on our site for you all to check-out. Were also doing a paid for beta program if your interested. We expect the multi-player version to be ready hopefully pretty soon as well. We are about to start a closed beta on that part. Regardless, please check out the site and would love to hear your comments on the posted video at least. -

Thanks guys look forward to your feed back.

Some of the units remind me of Total Annihilation's Kbots and ACUs. How did this fly under the radar for so long?

I definitely like what I see so far though.

Guys it took us so long working on it nights & weekends, etc. we just did not publish anything about it so we wouldn't have to keep answering the question when will it be done, when can we play it.

Indy projects can take a long time especially a big one like this with lots of coding. Plus we made alot of mistakes along the way that caused us to step back and make redo's.

But, now were in a good spot and ready to show off a little. The multi-player is the true gem on this, o man it's fun to play.

Thanks for the kind works and feed back.

Is this a mod or did you create a new game engine?

We wrote a lot of c++ code to make this work plus we used 3dgamestudio as a middle ware and wrote alot of code in c-script which is Atari's coding language for game-studio.

I know. A mod could be for any engine.

Sounds like a new engine to me.

I like the look of that quadruped walker.

The game reminds me a bit of DuneCommand.

Dune Command - i remember playing that game. That was the RTS version of Dune correct. I always enjoyed playing rts in that environment. The huge sandworms were the best.

The quad walker is fun, you can jump into him and control both the big gun on the top and in the next update we do you will be able to control the super fire... which basically makes all 6 of his Gatling guns go ... super effective as an anti-air defense. If i think about it i will try to post a little vid of it.
