Loot Rascals is almost ready now it has release date, March 7th for PS4 and PC systems, it brings a tale of friendship, loss and redemption in outer space, It’s a roguelike set on a hostile alien world, where you’ll play as the survivor of a rocket crash, trying to escape this planet.
The game has two main components: First off you are exploring the planet, revealing its hexagonal surface, and fighting a menagerie of strange aliens, monsters and robots. Defeating them will win you Loot Chips – a set of schematic cards from which you get all of your abilities.
Check this gameplay trailer here:
“Arranging these cards in your HUD to create your character’s build is the second major aspect of the game – much of the strategy comes from deciding which cards to keep – which will determine how you’ll approach the various hostile situations on the planet – and which ones you’ll convert into the precious resources you’ll need to heal up and fight your way to freedom.
When you die in Loot Rascals, you will be looted by the enemies! And when that happens, the cards they steal are beamed up and will drop into someone else’s game. Defeating strong enemies will get you a card belonging to someone else – which was looted from them earlier by that baddie. Baddies only steal the best loot chips so you will be faced with a choice to keep it for yourself or send it back to the player who lost it.
That choice however will have big consequences. Every player in Loot Rascals has a Holographic Agent – a computer controlled copy of themselves who can visit other people’s games. If you decide to hang on to another player’s card, you may find yourself faced with their angry Hologram, trying to kill and loot you. Or, if you did right by them, and sent back their card, perhaps their Hologram will turn up to help you for a while”.
