“Combat Overrun is a new action survival game - featuring an intense singleplayer mode - battling to survive an alien demonic invasion - also available to play cooperatively - and an online multiplayer first person shooter - featuring Deathmatch and Battle Royale - combining a strong first person shooter with vehicular combat and racing. Use tanks, cars, trucks and helicopters to your advantage to win the battle! We want to involve the community in the development of this title and believe that for many, being a part of the development of a new multiplayer game can be as much fun and as rewarding as playing the final game. We intend to listen to feedback and suggestions and tune the game and how its new game-mode is played, towards what the players want and like. We also, as a small indie developer, value the assistance and information sharing about common technical issues surrounding online multiplayer, such as bandwidth limits, lag compensation, data compression and lots more, that the community can and want to help us with. We want to build a positive and helpful community. We will offer the option to run your own servers, private or public, with admin password control for clan testing, and perks for running public servers, such as a direct feedback channel to the developer and being able to be the first to try out new features and improvements. More than anything we see Early Access as The Way to build a game like this, to become a really loved and much played game, with a vibrant community that is as much in control of servers and the game as we the developers are.”

The game features vehicles - cars, trucks, helicopters and tanks, all playable. A significant part of the gameplay is vehicle play, racing against each other to reach supply drops and other points of interest. The Early Access game features guns, submachine guns, automatic rifles, sniper rifles, grenades, and grenade and rocket launchers. Deathmatch and Battle Supreme game mode is fully playable and ready for tuning and further development inspired by community feedback.”

We also, as a small indie developer, value the assistance and information-sharing about technical issues surrounding online multiplayer, such as bandwidth limits, lag compensation, data compression and encryption, anti-cheat functionality and lots more, that the community can and want to help us with.

We want to maintain a positive and helpful community, that especially in the early stages share workarounds and tips, while we crunch to implement solutions, to get everyone in the game. We will offer the opportunity to run private and public servers, with and without GPUs, and the opportunity for admins to set the rules they want, to only invite their friends and clan members for testing, or to run custom modes - as much as the testing environment at the time permits.”
