War of the Worlds - New Gameplay & Development Progress

Описание: Wishlist War of the Worlds on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/18...

A quick video showing some of the things worked on this month. Lots of progress has been made in improving the game visually and a lot of improvements on the backend in terms of playability, optimization, and over all a good amount of progress. Our subscriber count has more than doubled since our last video and the channel/videos have blown up in popularity! The game has received a ton of exposure that I never anticipated and I felt it important to make an announcement about a release date for this game. Firstly, I want everyone to understand that there is a very small team working (2-3 people) on this project as of now and there are VERY high expectations and pressure to deliver something that lives up to the hype. Steam originally displayed our release date on the store page as "August 1st, 2021" since the store page has come up. In all honesty and I want to clarify this with the community sooner than later, that is highly unlikely going to be the case. I honestly cannot predict a release date as this is the game development business and it being just me means that it will be difficult to deliver this product in an early access ready state that I feel comfortable releasing in any pre determined specific time frame. There is no release date at this time. It could be 2-3 months, it could be 6-8. At this point I am unsure of a "date" or a time frame and cannot give you guys any solid range. I have a lot of plans for this game in terms of content.


Will there be aliens that come out of the machines?

Yes, the aliens are currently being created and the AI developed. They will come out of the machines in the later days of the invasions and explore the interior of buildings. If a machine probes your house and doesn't discover anyone in the process, the aliens will enter the building thinking that it is safe and it gives you the opportunity to strike if you feel brave enough. The aliens are also very aggressive and strong and can kill you easily.

Can you take down the machines?

Yes & No. The machines have a forcefield shield that surrounds them and protects them from the Military's counter offenses. Towards the later days, just like the movie, they become ill and the shields begin to go down. At this point you are able to bring the aliens down if you have the weapons or means to as the shields have gone down.

Will there be a multiplayer co/op mode?

Yes, there will be 2 multiplayer game modes and they are as follows:

1. Multiplayer Survival: This online game mode throws the players into the survival game mode to work together, or against each other, to survive the invasion. Players can group together

2. Multiplayer Extermination: In this game mode players can choose to play as the humans or as the invaders in a PvP experience. While having the same gameplay as Multiplayer Survival, this game mode allows players to play as the invaders.

More details will be released as development of the multiplayer aspect of the game develops.

That's all for now!
