We thought its about time posting a few shots of Mech Battle in action, this is a rather old and early preview video highlighting the core play mechanics: Hope you like it! If so, don't forget signing up if you want to participate in the soon starting beta: http://www.djinnworks.at/mechbattle
We are about to finalise all weapons and balancing at the moment and hope to release the beta in 2 - 4 weeks with the final release before the end of the year.
We are so proud sharing with you a few more Mech Battle gameplay screenshots, running on iPhone 5S running @ 60fps with 8 realtime players:
A video says more than thousand words, showcasing a rather unique feature, the tactical RTS and third person view:
The mechs have various different abilities like speed, armour, friction (to climb steep hills), rotation speed, special abilities, jump force, etc.. More info about the mechs coming very soon (initial version will ship with 15 different mechs with the option to customise them of course)
Looks really fun! This game reminds me of a different game called "War robots" except your game looks a lot better and polished. And I absolutely love the idea of changeable camera views!
One thing I'm curious about is the marketing approach you're going to do, will it be where better weapons cost a special currency? Or what will it be like? I'm pretty curious.
