Two years of work, a lot of sacrifices and we have reached this point. We put everything on one card and start with our Kickstarter.
With great hopes that we will succeed, I invite you to visit and support the project through this link:

Everyone who is not afraid of bugs appearing in pre-alpha versions I invite you to play our demo. You can download them via our main page in the store, after locating the "download demo" button.

Unfortunately, it was not possible to implement all planned functionalities in time. After all, the demo shows well the overall idea of the game. I hope you will forgive me some shortcomings and you will generally like it.

Cheers!

Thanks for the year together!

As we are approaching the end of the year, I would like to thank everyone for the support you have given me in the last 12 months on our Patreon.

The past year has been abundant in challenges we had to face and the last few months was an insane combo of health problems.
After all, whenever things went unfavourable for us, I was always able managed to put everything together, thanks to the support of my closest friends and you - Patrons.

Thank you all very much. First of all, for the faith and trust you gave me, and for the fact that when I doubted my strength, you helped me regain my enthusiasm for further work.

Here You can check a raw gameplay recording that you will encounter after running the demo.
A lot of things related to the interface and audio layer still need to be refined, but it seems to me that the video presents a good outline of the first minutes of the game.

More will come soon.

Thank you for being here!
Matt

If You Love Something, Set It Free

When the creators of Unreal Engine decided to make their engine available for free to the whole world, they were accompanied by the sentence “If You love something set it free”. As it turns out, this sentence also fits into our project.

After long reflection, calculations and a few sleepless nights I decided that G.O.R.E. in its full version it will be free to play. Yes Yes! You read it right. If you want to try your skills in the G.O.R.E. multiplayer module, you’ll be able to do it for free. Checking your wallet will only be required if you want to play a single-player story campaign, or if you find that your avatar urgently needs a new skin. Personally, I think RTS games have their unique atmosphere and I’m not going to block anyone’s access to it through the paywall.

As you know, I am currently preparing a playable pre-alpha G.O.R.E. demo which will appear on Steam at the beginning of December this year. Thanks to it you will learn the basics of the gameplay mechanics I propose and the general atmosphere of the G.O.R.E. world. I hope that what you see in the upcoming demo will appeal to you so much that you decide to support my work through the upcoming crowdfunding action on the IndieGoGo. Our goal will be to raise funds to complete the core of the game and bring the game to a stage where you will be able to play with other online players. If we manage to collect something more, it will open new possibilities for us. However, our main goal is to give the world high-quality RTS, with a complex gameplay system. So that everyone can see if he is a great commander.

More information will appear in the coming weeks. However, if you want to help in the development of G.O.R.E. right now, I invite you to visit our profile on Patreon. Any funds are always welcome in our highly indie production process 😉

And don’t forget to add G.O.R.E. to your Steam wishlist!
