Tulossa pian Early Accessiin

Pelin kehittäjät julkaisevat sen kehitysvaiheessa ja jatkavat työstämistä pelaajien palautteen pohjalta.

Huomaa: Early Access -pelit ovat keskeneräisiä ja saattavat vielä muuttua. Jos et halua pelata peliä sen tämänhetkisessä tilassa, odota ja tarkista peli myöhemmin uudelleen. Lue lisää

Kehittäjien kertomaa:

Miksi Early Access?

Distributed Shield already provides a playable sandbox with force construction, route and formation planning, sensor tracking, component-based air defence, manual and automatic exercise launches, live event views, saving and after-action scoring. Early Access will let strategy and simulation players help us improve clarity, balance, performance and usability while the catalogue and scenario-authoring tools continue to grow.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

We currently expect approximately 12–18 months. This is an estimate rather than a promise; quality and player feedback will determine the final schedule.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

We plan to add a stronger guided training suite, improved adversarial automation, more scenario-authoring and sharing tools, expanded after-action analysis, additional performance and accessibility settings, and further validation of public-source game profiles. We also plan to improve the native 3D presentation.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

The current version is a single-player sandbox. Players can construct both fictional exercise forces, deploy units, create routes and formations, configure altitude and payloads, control sensor emissions, operate multiple command and sensor displays, launch eligible exercise weapons, save locally and generate an after-action score. There is no campaign, multiplayer, Steam Workshop or Steam Cloud support in the current build. Balance, performance and usability remain areas of active development.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

We plan to gradually raise the price as substantial content, training and scenario tools are completed. Price changes will be announced in advance.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

We will use Steam Discussions and structured feedback posts for bug reports, usability feedback, public-source corrections and feature priorities. Equipment claims will require a traceable public source, and classified or operationally sensitive submissions will not be used.

Tietoa pelistä

Design the battlespace. Command the network. Understand every outcome.

Distributed Shield is a real-time command simulation in which you construct both sides of a fictional near-future air and missile exercise. Deploy aircraft, radars, command nodes and air-defence components across a georeferenced South Asian theatre, then plan routes, formations, altitude profiles, payloads, emission policies and engagement rules before starting the clock.

Once the exercise begins, every view is driven by the same simulation state. Watch detections develop into uncertain tracks, follow missiles through boost, mid-course and terminal flight, or move between command, selected-radar, radar coverage, EO/IR, network, electronic-warfare and live event-camera displays.

Build your own exercise

  • Begin with a blank sandbox or balanced fictional demonstration forces.
  • Deploy Pakistan and India equipment from clearly labelled public-source, reported, contracted and scenario-only catalogues.
  • Create routes with individual waypoint altitude, speed and HOT/COLD/RECOVER instructions.
  • Build formations from two aircraft to large drone swarms.
  • Choose payload tokens, sensor emissions and automatic or operator-controlled exercise launches.
  • Pause, retask, save and score the sandbox whenever you choose.

A connected battlespace

Sensors do not receive perfect information. Radar, EO/IR and passive-RF contacts depend on line of sight, Earth curvature, altitude, aspect, broad signature bands, weather, clutter, scan timing, track quality and network contribution. Component-based air-defence packages require their command, sensor and launcher elements to remain available.

Transparent simulation

The launch panel explains estimated chance, energy, geometry, weather and track factors instead of drawing a fixed “no-escape zone.” Missiles use a time-stepped point-mass game model with boost, sustain, energy decay, lead pursuit, seeker activation and closest-approach assessment. An after-action board records the events and results of the exercise.

Distributed Shield uses deliberately bounded public-source game profiles. It is not certified training software, an operational planning tool or a prediction of real-world military performance.

Tiedote tekoälysisällöstä

Kehittäjät kuvailevat pelissään käytettävää tekoälysisältöä seuraavasti:

Generative AI assisted with promotional/key artwork, icons, interface content, and portions of written catalogue and store-page text during development. These assets and text were selected and edited during development. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to an AI service. Generated artwork is illustrative and is not presented as documentary imagery.

Aikuissisällön kuvaus

Kehittäjät ovat kuvailleet sisältöä seuraavasti:

This game depicts fictional military conflict through map symbols, aircraft and missile launches, explosions, interceptions, and destruction of equipment. Combat is abstract and non-graphic. There is no blood, gore, dismemberment, or depiction of injured people.
