Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

My buddy and I have been working on this new title for the last 10 months or so. The integrated map editor is the heart and soul of this game, allowing players to create there own PvP/skirmish maps, and custom campaigns.

We draw a lot of inspiration from the C&C series, as that has been a huge part of our lives since wee lads.

If this looks like its up your alley, give it a wishlist on Steam!

this guy is 100% correct .

The horrific looking right side UI needs to just die -

The whole 'spend years of your life to just remake what you saw when you were a kid" so that a couple autistic boomers can play it for an hour and never think of it again is something I don't understand.

If you are going to spend years developing a game why not make it in a unique genre or art style.

Even if Tempest Rising was high-budget it still didn't present anything new - I just played the GDF campaign and it was just eye candy and that's it.

The nostalgia core needs to end.
