About This Game

Get ready for a high-octane RTS adventure that thrusts you into a WW2 warped by secret experiments and prototype weapons. In Terrors of War, you’ll lead forces through epic battles, wield devastating superweapons, and master a deep economy to crush your foes. This isn’t just firepower—it’s strategy. Your supply lines and tactical decisions will forge an unstoppable war machine.

Forging Your War Machine: Resources and Economy

Terrors of War delivers a rewarding resource system reminiscent of classic RTS titles. Dedicated supply vehicles gather resources from caches and deliver them to depots, laying the foundation for your economic might. Capture strategic points—businesses, farms, oil rigs, or secret labs—and salvage wreckage to fuel your campaign. Every choice strengthens your grip on the battlefield.

High-Stakes Combat

Brace for breathless warfare! Counter enemy strikes, plan devastating offensives, and unleash earth-shattering superweapons like nukes, V2 rocket strikes, clone swarm assaults, mind-control mine drops (temporarily swaying enemy troops), bio-weapon bombs (driving units berserk), and artillery barrages.

A Solo Dev’s Vision

As a solo developer driven by passion for RTS, I’m building Terrors of War to blend relentless tactics with bold experimental tech. Here’s what’s planned for Early Access:

• Twisted WW2 Saga: Immerse yourself in story-driven campaigns for each faction, with narrative chaos unfolding across a warped WW2 timeline.

• Strategic Mastery: Craft unique AI opponents (available now—join our Discord to try it!), outsmart adaptive enemies, master hotkeys for unit selection, queuing, and formations, and reward skillful play with veterancy perks.

• Experimental Arsenal: Wield experimental laser weapons (high damage, slow recharge), cloning vats, super soldiers (tough, fast, melee bruisers), radio-controlled drones, sonic wave emitters, bio/chemical weapons, and gravity mines. Unlock tech like enhanced projectiles, prototype armor, or cloning accelerators.

• Diverse Factions: Expect more factions with unique tech trees and bold identities, from brute-force prototypes to advanced technology, each enriched by distinct playstyles and campaigns.

• Economy & Immersion: Capture strategic points and salvage resources, with supply vehicles tying your economy together. Every unit boasts unique voice lines, blending WW2 grit with experimental flair. Call in airstrikes, saboteurs, V2 strikes, or bio-weapon bombs to turn the tide.

• Replayability & Modding: Plan for up to 4v4 battles with leaderboards, showcase profiles, and matchmaking. Create custom factions, maps, and scenarios with Steam Workshop integration. Fight across diverse battlefields, from toxic wastelands to shattered experimental zones.

• Achievements & Glory: Earn Steam achievements for masterful tactics, like annihilating a vast enemy army with a single superweapon strike, and unlock medals for legendary victories.

Some AI-generated content has been incorporated into the game. AI handles tasks like generating boilerplate code and other types of code assistance, freeing up time to concentrate on perfecting gameplay and making the user experience top-notch. Right now, a minor amount of audio and visuals you see are AI-generated, but as I move through Early Access, I'll be swapping some of them out for custom-made content from freelancers.
