Broken Arrow

Broken Arrow

Broken Arrow is a large-scale real-time modern warfare tactics game. The base game features both the American and Russian factions, more than 100 units and multiple deck specialisations per nation.

Broken Arrow brings the genre to a whole new level by combining the complexity of a joint-forces wargame with the typical real-time tactics action-packed gameplay.

UNIQUE ARMY BUILDING

Build your army deck by choosing from over 200 different units. Part of the battle is won by planning well: create the right combination of unit types and weapons to defeat your enemy, and don’t forget to consider the terrain when you choose.

Broken Arrow features a wide range of units, that are split into seven categories based on their characteristics: your army deck includes recon units, infantry, fighting vehicles, support units, logistical units, helicopters and airstrikes slots.

  • RECON UNITS: includes infantry, vehicles and drones specialized in the task of spotting and marking the enemy position.

  • INFANTRY: includes line infantry, shock troops, special forces, anti-tank teams, anti-aircraft teams.

  • FIGHTING VEHICLES: includes tanks, ATGM carriers and fire support vehicles.

  • SUPPORT: includes artillery and anti-aircraft vehicles that provide long range support on the battlefield.

  • HELICOPTERS: includes multipurpose cavalry units best used far from the heatpoints.

  • AIRSTRIKES: includes many different weapons, swarms of tactical missiles and airdrops of troops, vehicles and supplies.

CUSTOM UNITS

Modern vehicles and aircraft are generally compatible with different weapons and armor packages; Broken Arrow features a detailed customisation system that allows you to modify the specific components of your units, either individually or as a loadout.

  • Customize your aircraft by choosing weapons, fuel tanks, designation pods, countermeasure pods and decoys.

  • Add armor or defensive systems to your vehicles and upgrade their weaponry and sensors.

  • Special forces have access to a wide variety of equipment for you to choose: add suppressors, thermal optics, reconnaissance drones, explosive charges and much more.

ACTION-PACKED COMBAT

Choose the right combination of units from your deck and deploy them to the battlefield, via land, the sea or from the air. Use paratroopers and helicopters to rapidly seize key locations, reinforce them with heavy tanks and break enemy counter attacks with artillery and tactical missiles.

Infiltrate special forces behind enemy lines to disrupt enemy logistics and provide laser designation for your planes. Use the terrain to your advantage to ambush, out flank and outsmart your enemy.

Danger Zombies

Danger Zombies

A game that seems to have severe memory leaks that impacted my PC long after the game was closed. The game also brought my gaming desktop PC with an intel i7 10700 @ 3.4 Ghz, GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER, and 16 GB of DDR4 dual channel RAM to its knees! I averaged about 5 to 10 fps and got as low a 1 fps trying to play this BS asset trash.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvbSWhROn48

The developer purchased an asset map on the Unity asset store, purchased a player model and built in controls, and also bought a single zombie asset and loaded the asset map with about 3,000 of the zombie assets and then hit export on Unity. Uploaded it to Steam with the name “Danger Zombies”. He didn’t even bother making a proper settings page, with no sound options at all, and a drop down of empty resolution choices!

Five Nations

Five Nations

A nice up-to-date looking 2D RTS like AoE2: Definitive Edition or C&C Remastered,

neat homage to Base Build Space RTS like Star Trek Armada 2 or Conquest: Frontier Wars.

Despite the game was made by a team of 2 people, it does rival AAA products.

While it does lack Multiplayer, Story and Single-player Skirmish are very well done.

The game has a really good Wiki page and Demo version on steam.

https://five-nations.fandom.com/wiki/Five_Nations_Wiki

Five Nations is an impressive real-time strategy game that borrows action and gameplay elements from many of the genre’s classics. The game has a very deep and complex base build alike Age of Empires, where you have to care for 4 different resources, also the unit population. The map terrain has an interesting variety of open space and white nebulas where units can hide, but not use their abilities and are slower, also there are areas that do damage units if they try to pass them like red storm clouds.

I think its by sheer luck that I found this game. Someone on twitter just randomly brought it up and I got curious and looked it up. I first tried the demo and was very surprised!

For a small studio and their first game this is a REALLY impressive RTS! It does so many things well that alot of AAA RTS’s seem to struggle with. There’s a few blemishes here and there, but overall I am surprised at how polished and well designed all the mechanics are, and the factions feel very finely tuned to fit perfectly in a competitive scene.

Gewevo : Interstellar

What is Gewevo ?

Gewevo is a science-fantasy univers and a tabletop RPG originally (findable on Lulu) which is expanding regularly with novels (also found on Lulu and Wattpad) and now a video game.

Why not.

Why such simplistic graphics ?

Because I have no talent for it.

Monster Master

Monster Master

FPS heroes versus RTS horde. An asymmetric multiplayer where 1 player spawns the different monsters, and 3 class-based fps heroes try to survive it.

The game is set in to the small town of Kingsfield, where an energy research facility has given birth to a cosmic horror entity called the monster master.

Players can choose to control and mutate the monster horde or survive as a group of class based heroes with unique powers.

The hero perspective is a thrilling unscripted experience where the monsters feel very intelligent. It suddenly is very quiet and you know “It” is planning something.
