Blue Heaven will be launched on Kickstarter Today
Brainworm Games S. L., an indie videogame development studio, has announced that its first game (Blue Heaven) will be live on Kickstarter as of today 10th of May to fund its development.
Blue Heaven is a combination of action-RPG and Hack & Slash that is targeted only at adults. It tells a bloody story from a mercenary’s point of view whose work is to enforce the law in a futuristic and decadent cyberpunk universewhere the main civilization crushed many centuries ago. The new settlements are archaic and little is known about the events that occurred centuries ago, beyond what the Servants keep in the silicon codices that show very advanced machines that nobody knows how they were built or how they work. That is the basis of a creed that supports a decadent system with the cult of technology, on the illusion of becoming again what they once were.
You’ll be V1CT0R Wylde, a middle-aged man with a serious, aggressive, brave and skeptical personality, and with low life aspirations. Soon, he will have to abandon his world to explore unknown territories in order to save the last bit of humanity left in him, ending up involved in an unpredictable conflict.
As far as we know, this is the first isometric pixel art game that is using rotoscopy to animate their characters with all movements coming from real models that have been recorded to enhance the authenticity of the characters. That way, players will immerse in a game that brings together the classic pixel art with the rotoscopy technique to create a unique environment.
The game is designed to be controlled with a keyboard or gamepad (with no need for a mouse) so it will bring you to an easy playability where it has been taken care of even the smallest details.
Check out the Trailer:
When we think about an isometric perspective game two things come to our mind: mouse and turns. The combat system of Blue Heaven does not use either. Forget about clicking on the screen or pausing the game, take your keyboard or gamepad and kill! Here is where the “action” word of “action-RPG” takes relevance and transforms the game into a Hack & Slash. The player has complete control of the character during combats and can choose the best strategy to beat the enemies. To achieve that, the protagonist counts with a varied arsenal: pistols, automatic rifles, grenades, short swords, long swords, etc., and will have to make fast decisions to either jump over the enemies or take cover behind a box or a column. Yes, you have read correctly, there are covers as in 3D third person shooters like Gears of War. Finally, one of the most satisfactory things the player will be able to do is enemy execution. We are not going to spoil anything about this. We want the characters to look alive during combats, we want you to feel the hits, we want you to experience the rage!
