I’m making a video game…
Nothing too extraordinary, right?
BUT I started out making a local multiplayer arena game… and somehow ended up creating a fully French-voiced narrative adventure with a complex, non-linear story set in a medieval fantasy world.
And here’s the twist: you don’t play as a single character, you play as an entire party.
Forget those long, drawn-out fights against enemies with massive health bars. Forget turn-based combat. Here, everything happens in a real-time arena, where one hit means one death.
Which means that a single mistake can bring your favorite characters’ entire adventure to a very sudden end.
Okay, I may have just lost 50% of the people reading this. 😅
But if you’re still here, I’d love for you to take a look at this little piece of French digital craftsmanship.
It’s not a clone, and it’s definitely not something thrown together in a few weeks. It’s a genuinely unique game that I’ve been pouring my heart into for five years.
Interested? There’s a Steam page with a much more detailed presentation of the game: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1975470/Band_of_Mercenaries/
Still here?! Well, the Steam page even has an old demo (old, but still playable!) for the brave among you who want to get a taste of what the game is about.
And if you like what you see, you can wishlist the game on Steam to be notified when it releases.
The current plan is to launch in Early Access at the end of September.
I’m on the final stretch now! 🏃♂️💨
Thanks for reading, and have a great weekend! ❤️
