Shock Tactics

Released2017
Shock Tactics is inspired by the space western style of Firefly and games like Jagged Alliance and X-COM. The game is set on an ancient alien homeworld, procedurally generated each time you start a new game. Shock Tactics will be released later this year on Steam for PC and be available as a digital download. As the commander of a Strike Team, fighting for the Space Pioneers, you are the trailblazer for the first wave of explorers on a harsh and ancient alien homeworld. Other powers are trying to uncover the secrets of the planet, the ruthless Mega-Cooperation “Consortium” has already sent their mercenary forces – future conflicts are inevitable. Your first task is to establish a base of operations, gather resources and expand your base in order to research advanced weapons or healing facilities. Lead your strike team into intense and tactically demanding turn-based fights and choose from a large variety of different skills and tactics. Order drone strikes or demand emergency reinforcements from an orbital dropship, use explosives, cloaking devices, or even short-range teleportation. Between combat, explore the procedurally generated planet, find alien artifacts and learn how to use them, unlock unique abilities for your fellow soldiers and expand your territory to gain control over the new world.

About This Game

Your team are the advance scouts for the Free Space Pioneer program on a newly discovered alien world — the first wave in, before anyone knows what the planet holds. What it holds, it turns out, includes pirates, alien creatures, and the armed forces of the Imperial Consortium, all of whom have their own reasons to be here. Shock Tactics is a turn-based tactical combat game in which you fight for control of the planet's secrets, building outposts and dig sites to stay ahead of an invasion force that is already on its way.
