The video above is our teaser trailer video. Thanks to Arta for uploading it! Hey guys! We just launched our Kickstarter campaign for RoboArena. Check out the link and help us spread the word and get some sweet swag! Also I've got a great walkthrough video coming soon showing off actual gameplay so stay tuned!
Just posted another gameplay video to give a good sense of how the game is played and just how close the game is to being released. What do you think?
Hey guys, our Blue Robo has been featured on Cubeecraft and is available for your downloading and paper crafting fun! Plus he's absolutely adorable! http://www.cubeecraft.com/blog/blue-robo-is-now-available/
I updated our first video in the top post with a new walkthrough trailer explaining the gameplay of RoboArena. Additionally I added the mention of X-Com since it seems that there's a pretty big fanbase for X-Com type games, and RoboArena has drawn inspiration from their team turn-based tactical mechanic. In multiplayer two teams will control three Robos each in crazy fun games of CTF, Siege, King Of The Hill, and other game modes that we will be developing after the release. Also I wanted to point out that we will be having multiplayer asynchronous gamecenter support for up to 4 players. I think the world needs more asynchronous games!
I really like this game! Really looking forward to this. If you need any beta testers, i'm a volunteer
Thanks Punky! Right now, we will be offering a private beta to our supporters on Kickstarter as a way of saying thanks for believing in the project. It will be easier to manage that way, and it will be cool way to build up a nice little community of friends!
Hey guys, we just relaunched our Kickstarter campaign, and updated our trailer video with all new footage and new levels! Check it out and let us know what you think!
Cool. I pledged $25 so I could be a beta tester. Will that beta be released once you reach your funding goal?
Thanks Neehan! Yes, we will be collecting the necessary info from the beta testers once the campaign finishes. Then we will launch the beta shortly afterwards and send out the invites and download links.
A quick update: We worked a deal with a fellow Kickstarter and are now offering a set of 6 collectable RoboArena pinback buttons to our supporters! Check em out, and pledge to the campaign to show off your Robo pride...
Tell me about online multiplayer. Will it be asynchronous / all-at-once style, a la "Laser Squad Nemesis"? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_Squad_Nemesis Oh BOY!!!!!
Yup! That's the plan! Everybody will plan out their moves, and once they are all done, the action happens all at once very similar to laser squad. It's a blast! We plan to have random matchups as well as allowing you to specifically invite friends. We can't wait to delve into the new gamecenter turn-based features that are getting rolled out! Oh, and did I mention we are making a board game as well? It is creatively titled- RoboArena: The Board Game Check out the details on our latest Kickstarter update: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bravadowaffle/roboarena-asynchronous-multiplayer-tactical-ios-ga/posts/88226
Thanks so much Arta! We are stoked and working very hard right now! We're planning on a September release and already lining up the media attention and reviews so stay tuned!
3 Days Left! Only 3 days are left for the RoboArena Kickstarter campaign!! Be sure to pledge now if you want the custom exclusive avatars and pinback buttons, or if you want to be part of the beta testing or design some levels!
