About This Game

[Note: This page is currently open solely for wishlist purposes. All content shown is temporary and will be reworked in the future.]

[This Steam store page will be further improved as game development progresses. Specific gameplay details for each game mode will be announced later. This game is developed by a solo indie developer.]

Core of War features a highly customizable battlefield as its core highlight, playable in first-person, third-person, and RTS modes. A wide variety of unit types are available for you to command across sea, land, air, and space, including but not limited to infantry, Titan robots, tanks, armored vehicles, hover vehicles, mechs, helicopters, fighter jets, VTOL aircraft, naval warships, and large spacecraft. You can use the various units, maps, game modes, and customization options provided to craft your very own battlefield. Here you can experience futuristic warfare, modern combat, or even battles from earlier eras.

The game features traditional Conquest mode and Defense mode with full custom configuration support, with more game modes to be added in the future. It supports a standard battlefield player count of 20 vs 20, but also offers any match size from as small as 1 vs 1 up to a maximum of 64 vs 64. [depending on your computer's performance]

The game is built from the ground up primarily as a first-person shooter, but it offers much more than that. In addition to the first-person perspective, you can also switch to third-person view and an RTS command mode at any time, seamlessly transitioning between all three. The RTS mode can also serve as a bridge, allowing you to directly jump into any unit on the battlefield and take manual control, or command other units from a strategic overhead perspective. These features are designed to cater to a wide variety of player preferences and playstyles.

The game also includes a character skill system, a gunsmithing system, and a vehicle DIY assembly system, allowing you to personalize your characters and equipment for enhanced fun and replayability.

Additionally, there is a companion DIY configuration save system along with an enable and disable system for these profiles. You can save every weapon, character, or vehicle you have assembled. Through this comprehensive customization system, you can even design the entire game's balance framework, define opposing factions, and adjust gameplay to your liking.

[For example, by using the DIY system to disable all units except tanks, the game becomes a pure tank versus tank experience. And with the enable and disable system, you can decide which specific tanks each side can use. By the same logic, the game can be transformed into an air combat game, a naval battle game, a mech versus mech game, or a large-scale combined arms battlefield with all unit types mixed together. Of course, these are just the tip of the iceberg. Countless more possibilities await your discovery.]

As a single-player game, AI combat capability is also a major focus of our development. In the game, AI can react dynamically to unexpected battlefield situations, potentially catching unprepared players off guard.
