Drifting Lands (Shmup x ARPG) coming soon

Post by Krobill »

Hi,

it's very humbly that I come to present our next game Drifting Lands which is a shoot'em'up and yet also very much an action-RPG borrowing a lot of mechanics to games like Diablo.
I know it sounds weird but it's really the idea behind the concept :)

The game is currently in early access on Steam but the official release is set to June 5

You can discover more about the game on the website :
http://www.drifting-lands.com
or the Steam page :
http://store.steampowered.com/app/32275 ... ing_Lands/

Truly, do not expect a very "pure" shmup respecting the codes of the classics but see it as a mashup of genres. A game with the double goal to offer :
- a rpg like experience for those of you who like STG, random loot and a bit of theory crafting to optimize your grind
- but also a more accessible at first and very progressive shmup-like experience for the frustrated neophytes by hardcore games

Do not hesitate if you have questions about the game,

and cheers from all the team !

Thanks for being straightforward about the game's design and not acting like it's the newest and craziest in arcade action. The skills look like a ton of fun, and the visual design is bright and poppy. Best of luck to you and the team.
