About This Game

Cold Steel is homage to the classic RTS style of C&C, AOE and StarCraft, but with a wicked twist...  Your structures and units are completely autonomous.

You craft the behavior of your units using an innovative visual coding interface.  Create intelligence and battle awareness through your own creative logic.  

Manage your resources and battery power to design the perfect autonomous war machine.

Logic can be simple and straightforward, or you can evolve into complex inter-relationships where your units can trigger behavior changes in other units.

Can you outmaneuver the enemy and claim victory?
