This game has been a side project for a couple years now and I've finally reached a point to share a teaser with the community. It's brought some unique challenges and required a lot of learning but development is going smoothly and I'm very happy with how it's shaping up. A couple unique aspects to ShellShot Arena:
Realtime Multiplayer
ShellShock Live is and has always been turn-based. This style of game is much more straightforward to create because network latency isn't a problem. Game clients simulate the turn on their own time and then sync up with the server once completed. Realtime multiplayer brings new challenges because we need to keep all players synced up in real-time. Done well, this should lead to fast paced gameplay with a more exciting feel.
Cross-Platform
We're building from the ground up for cross-platform play. PC players will be able to play with console players and mobile players. You should be able to have one common account over all your devices.
We're planning to release an early beta to Steam Early Access Q3 2023 (Subject to change). Thanks for reading and please make sure to add ShellShot Arena to your Steam Wishlist here.
