What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“There are many subtleties of the gameplay that require broad player feedback before finalizing - such as arena sizes and designs, pacing, difficulty, game performance in split screen combat etc.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Estimated 6-12 months, depending on whether story mode or other new game modes are added.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“More arenas, weapons, AI enhancements and enemy types. Graphics will likely be enhanced. A story mode is planned, but not guaranteed so is not promised as a future update. Likewise, online multiplayer may be added in a future update but is not promised as it is not a priority.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Core gameplay functionality and game loop is already in place for PvP matches and single player / co-op challenges (the latter two modes for up to 4 players in local split screen). There are over 20 game arenas, 14 weapons and 10 enemy types. The game currently does not feature online multiplayer or a story mode.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Most likely the game price will gradually increase as the amount of content expands. If the number of arenas increases to more than 100 or a long story mode campaign is included, this may more than double the price on final release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The discussion section of the game's listing will be monitored by the developer. Comment sections of Youtube game dev and gameplay demos will be monitored. Email feedback and other social media feedback will be monitored. Contact: magnetmind@yahoo.co.uk”

About This Game

Action-packed top down shooter gameplay in a 3D physics environment!

Two game modes:

  • Challenge your friends to a split screen gunplay duel (up to four players). Last man standing wins.
  • Or fight against robot AI enemies in single player or split screen co-op (up to four players).

Key features:

  • 28 weapon modes, each bringing different tactical mechanics.
  • Hold two weapons at any one time. Learn to combine them effectively.
  • Destroy robot spawners in room to room arena challenge combat.
  • Varied enemy types and AI keeps up the challenge. Each enemy uses different weapons and tactics.
  • 5 difficulty settings making the game accessible for all skill levels. Also adapts to the number of players.
  • 25 varied arenas, many featuring randomized features and layouts (hundreds of variations ensuring replayability).
  • Interactive environmental elements such as hoverboards, cannons, player flashlights, bounce pads, pushable spiked walls, elevators, exploding barrels, destructible walls / floors and more.
  • Strong, immersive sound effects.
  • Varied boss battles.

Unique features:
  • 3D environments add verticality in which you can jump or fall, making the gameplay more dynamic than 2D top down shooters.
  • Weapons, health kits and ammo are randomly thrown into the arena by the cheering crowd. Prowl the arena edges to prompt these drops.
  • In both game modes, players who die are automatically respawned as a turret, allowing them to continue taking part in the action.
  • Dead players in co-op mode are fully revived if one surviving player unlocks the next arena room. Keeps all players in the fight.
  • Over two hours worth of original music (combining, rock, metal, industrial, electronica, drum and bass, and dark ambience)
  • Retro visual style prioritizes clarity during gameplay rather than visually overloading the player.
