RED: Shadow Maggots

This project is no longer being actively worked on, please check the announcement here.

Have a question? I've probably answered it in the FAQ!

The game is still in development so you can't download it yet.

No, this game isn't abandoned, I will make it very clear if I choose to stop working on it forever

==================================================

This project was originally developed as part of TF2 Map's 2020 72hr Content Jam.  The jam build contains a limited amount of functionality and can be found here. A more complete version of the game with a more fleshed out combat system, animations and visual effects shall be released soon-ish!

Overview

You control three menacing mercenaries on your quest to defeat the boss in this fan-adaption of Eltorro64Rus's spoof of RAID: Shadow Legends ads!
Mercenaries are distributed randomly when you begin the game, each are of a different rarity.

Features to Come

RED: Shadow Maggots is still a work-in-progress, but a final release is set before the end of 2021 (hopefully)! The scope for this game has increased dramatically, so expect the development of the game to go on for a few years. Nevertheless, we are still actively working on the game and we will post updates whenever there is anything substantial to show.

Here are some things you can expect to see in the full version.  Items in the list are subject to change as features are deemed feasible/unfeasible.

• Lootboxes, gachas and microtransactions! (You love these right?)
• Jokes that make fun of lootboxes, gachas and microtransactions
• Progression mechanics (that respect your time)
• An endless rogue-like mode
• Card collection and party management
• Player-to-player trading
• Some story system, or at least some dialogue for the token tutorial segment
