Project Landsword
A downloadable game for Windows
The once peaceful surface of Mars has decayed into a violent battleground between arms corporations and Earthly governments.
To join the fight would be crazy. To survive would be downright psychotic.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Landsword is a top-down mecha shooter with a heavy emphasis on destruction and gameplay that combines elements from classic shoot em' ups and contemporary action-stealth games.

Featuring fully destructible environments, players must use their wits and surroundings to outsmart and defeat enemies in combat, while still retaining an arcade feeling to its gameplay.

Good game.
I didn't use shift much in the demo version, perhaps the developer could consider the mecha can damage enemy by impact and take less damage from enemy impact when using shift. This effect could appear in the direction of move as a shield.
There will be upgrades for the boost and engine. Will definitely have an ability to damage enemies by slamming into them or reducing damage when boosting; currently I'm working on implementing a proper hangar for that. Thanks for playing!
Really cool! Digging the art style and aesthetic a lot. How did you make the sprite stacks for all the "models" in the game? Voxels converted to slices? Either way cool stuff!
A mixture of voxels converted to slices, conventional 3D models downscaled to voxels, and sometimes hand drawing each of the slices. Thanks for playing!
No more downloads? :’(
It's up again!
Wow! Thank you! Game is amazing already!
Awesome destruction, fun combat, good work! excited to see you continue with this! thank you mezz!
Can't wait for a finished game
Thanks for playing!
Great sound effects and UI! Took me straight back to 80s anime.
Glad you like it and noticed the 80s anime inspiration! The ricochet sounds are straight from Patlabor and Gundam.
This game got so much potential !
Oh, it runs on mine 32 bits potato, nice.Mine only complaint is that everything being beige makes it hard to see thing on the small window
Glad to hear people with older hardware can run this. I'm working hard on trying to get resolution resizing working, something is messing it up. I apologize you and other people had to play it in such a small resolution.
