BROKEN EARTH

   TeamInov proudly presents BrokenEarth, a topdown shooter trying to walk in the shoes of an fps. Our game tosses away almost all expectations for a topdown shooter, once you pick up the controls, you'll feel just how fluid it is to sprint, throw equipment, swap between weapons and jump around levels carefully crafted for this new type of gameplay.

 

What makes BROKENEARTH different from other topdown shooters?

  • Online support for up to 10 players 
  • Chaotic unscripted action, resulting in emergent mechanics like impulse jumping, flag tossing and more.
  • Varied equipment types, sticky grenades, deployable cover, mines and more.
  • Lobby system allowing you to vote for EVERYTHING you want in your next match, from weapons to gamemodes. 
  • 10+ finely tuned weapons, no weapon is a clone of another, each serves a role. 
  • 8+ multiplayer modes.
  • BE does not restrict the third axis, what does this mean? It means that the battlefield isn't flat, hills, rooftops, stairs are all traversable allowing you to rain sweet terror upon enemies above or below you. 
  • Sprint, melee and grenades, these are standard fps features that are available together for you for the first time in a topdown shooter, allowing you to inject new strategies into your battles. 
  • Equipments, grenades and other projectiles in BrokenEarth are all physics based, resulting in rockets curving around explosions and grenades twirling back at their users when combat gets intense.
  • Modules are abilities that you can activate and tip battles in your favour allowing you to go invisible, take extra damage, get a quick speed boost or repel players, rockets and projectiles around you. 
  • Customize your character with colours, emblems, accessories like hats and helmets. 
  • Match control, when a match ends in BE, you're taken to the lobby where you can vote on what weapons you spawn with in the next match, weapons are on map and what game mode and maps, no more playing the same setups until you get bored.

 

What else is planned?

  • Cooperative survival modes 
  • Huge maps with vehicular support with the ability to commandeer enemy vehicles 
  • To release with atleast 5 maps, with constant support adding more FREE maps and weapons after release 
  • Taking the best gamemodes and hat ideas from the community. 

    We're hoping to enter a public alpha but we need your support, we're tired of the same games and thus we hope BE is a breath of fresh air for gamers like us. Help us make it a reality.

 

What do YOU get?

   We know several games popup a year asking for fundings but we try our best to stand out, our players are important and we'll forget noone that supports us. Check out our flexible perks or just contribute directly, the help will be sincerely appreciated and even a dollar counts.

 

Its YOUR game

   Start your server and you are allowed to change a wide variety of options, from number of lives to tweaking gamemodes, we don't assume we know how all players want to play, so we give them the option to tweak things they may like. 

   Its our job to make the game function but its the players that will enjoy it, so we allow for alot of feedback, we take everything said into consideration and weigh it among several factors to decide if it should be tried.

 

Why we need your help now?

   In order to create the game you want to see and a game that can survive the market, quality is needed, we can make the game as fun as we can but if it doesnt look good, noone will try it.

Currently we are limited and working from home is pretty much borrowed time, our main expenses are:

  1. Professional version of the Unity engine [better visuals, stability and functionality]
  2. Server rentals
  3. Concept artists
  4. 3D assets [modelling, texturing]
  5. 2D graphic artists [emblems, team/game logos]
  6. Audio/Music composition [voiceovers and ingame music]
  7. Marketing assets [trailers and artwork]
  8. Noodles... [yes, noodles, problem? :P]

What we ask for won't get us there but its a start.

Why should you help?

   We believe developers try too hard to please the crowd and are forgetting the ROOTS of gaming, the fun factor, the feeling of taking up the controls and knowing that, the only reason you can lose, is because someone is ACTUALLY better and not because he had some overpowered BFG9001 bought in some premium store or unlocked at level 999, our games focus on gameplay first, everything else later. We do have progression and levels but you'll quickly realize how flexible the game still feels.

We believe we can put a twist on games we make and BrokenEarth is our final shot, we simply dont have the means to continue so we're giving this our all and we would like to thank those who support us.
