Artifex Mundi has presented Void Hunters, an upcoming dark fantasy RPG with turn-based combat that will be free for PC, iOS, and Android. Players will recruit a squad of Void Hunters, each with their own backstory, to face an entity that consumes the world. The game promises a tactical system that rewards planning, hero customization, and a main campaign accompanied by roguelite modes and competitive PvP. Alpha test sign-ups are now open.
A cross-platform approach with cross-play features 🎮
The development of Void Hunters focuses on the cross-platform experience, allowing PC and mobile device players to interact and progress in the same ecosystem. This implementation requires robust account and game state synchronization, as well as an interface design adaptable to different screens and control methods. The server architecture must manage turn-based combat in real-time for competitive mode, maintaining fairness across platforms.
Another existential void to fill with grind 😮💨
Just what we needed: a cosmic entity devouring reality and our only response is to form a committee of heroes with personal issues. Between mission and mission, we'll surely have time to listen to their traumas while we farm the epic gear necessary to not be devoured. At least the multi-device being allows us to escape the cosmic abyss from the bathroom. An alpha test to hunt voids... sounds like a unpaid job position.
