Thanks to the r/gaming mods for approving my account under Rule 7.
GAME SUMMARY – WHAT IS IT ABOUT?:
"You are playing as "Master Pilots", Combat Androids capable of performing unrealistic maneuvers on foot or from the cockpit of their Rifters. Pilot's roles are to provide combat support and clear all objectives in their assigned sectors through battles of attrition. Customize and upgrade your registered Pilots until the battlefield claims them."
ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT:
Development on LANCETTA began in 2021 following early prototyping. I’ve handled almost everything myself, avoiding marketplace assets wherever possible, except for a few details like the pilot’s hair and some Paragon VFX.
Balancing this alongside a full-time job, I spent a large chunk of time learning sound design, music theory, and AbletonLive from scratch. The game originally started on Unreal Engine 4 before being ported to UE5 (without Nanite or Lumen), and is built to run smoothly at 60+ FPS on ~2014 hardware.
The game demo is ready, it's still WIP (only one mission type, no boss archetypes) and I am curious to hear your thoughts and feedback.
I'm also happy to answer questions!
