Yet another news for you retro gaming aficionados, Bravado Waffle Studios has just released a trailer for a new title called RoboArena and if you like it, you can help make it become a reality.
The game is a casual strategy game with retro gameplay and the action takes place from a top-down perspective. You control a tank-like vehicle while avoiding enemies and picking up various powerups. The title will even feature multiplayer gameplay as part of its three game modes -- the other two being story and arena modes.
The Bravado Waffle Studios development team is a new indy studio using Kickstarter to finance this project. Here is their description:
We are a three man indie game development team looking to release our first super hit! Hailing from a variety of backgrounds, each member of Bravado Waffle Studios brings unique and individual talents to the team, and with our powers combined, we make up Bravado Waffle Studios! We firmly believe in the power of indie gaming, and we believe there has never been a better time to realize a dream and start making games like now. Our goal is to make truly fun, original, in depth, family friendly games.We want to make games that are easy to learn but hard to master. We want our games to span genres, appeal to wider audiences, and to be played and enjoyed by young and old alike. We have some big plans and even bigger dreams and we need your help to make them happen! RoboArena is a landmark for Bravado Waffle Studios and its release will mark our first iOS game released to the public. Hopefully RoboArena will be the first of many hit games in the future that we have planned!The team describes the gameplay differences between the multiplayer and single player portions as quite varied.
"In single player it turns the game into a puzzle game, but in multiplayer it turns into a game of cloak-and-dagger chess. Players will have to anticipate their opponents moves, lay traps, evade detection, and escape from the other Robos that are hunting them!"Last, but not least, here is how it will look like: Sounds like something for you? You can back them now directly on Kickstarter.
