Independent game developer Lunar Rooster and indie games partner Reverb Triple XP have officially announced that 'Sky Noon' will be launching into Steam’s Early Access program in Q2 2018. This first person shooter has been set in a quirky Wild West set high in the sky.
Taking place in a reinvented Wild West universe where the frontier floats among the clouds, powerful cartels crave to control the most precious resource in the west: water. Players take the role of hired gunslingers that battle opposing fighters across floating islands in the sky.
There are no health meters in Sky Noon; instead, to eliminate enemies, players use various super-power compressed air weapons to send them flying over the bounds of land and into the abyssal sky. The game gets a host of equipment like:
Grappling hooks
Lassos
Steam-powered jetpacks
Jump pads
Teleporters
Sky Noon is the two year long adventure started by lead designer Craig Taylor who, along with the other “core four” of Lunar Rooster, began creation of the game while studying game development at Auckland’s Media Design School in New Zealand.
“The feeling of bringing your first video game project to life is absolutely surreal and amazing,” states Craig Taylor, lead developer of Lunar Rooster. “The idea was really simple – let’s make a first person shooter that felt familiar, yet different. We’re delighted that there’s gamers that wanted this type of experience and the team is really looking forward to the feedback from players to improve Sky Noon during the Early Access development.”
If you are looking for a tactical first-person shooter that has some strategy elements built into it the 'Freeman: Guerrilla Warfare' could be worth a look. The game has entered Steam Early Access and is a single-player PC game that will cost you Rs 367 after a 20% discount on the original Rs 459 price. Players assume the role of a commander and raise money, build an army, engage the enemies in field combat. You can attack hostile territories and defend currently held ones and eventually dominate the world.
“There aren’t many first-person shooters that combine or strongly focus on strategy and role-playing elements. In Freeman: Guerrilla Warfare, we managed to marry the essence of first-person shooter, grand strategy and role-playing games into one unique hybrid game. We want to give players the freedom and challenge to choose their equipment, troops, tactics, enemies, and play-style. Our goal is to provide our players with the first sandbox FPS and grand strategy hybrid game that will allow them to experience shooters from an exciting new angle.
The game is not just a shooter; it is about taking the role of an army commander and every action that players make will influence the next steps of their career." - says, Lead developer, Hai Ren The game is being developed by KK Studios and the gameplay is divided into two portions: the overworld map and the first-person shooter. In the strategy portion, the player visits locations, trade for money, upgrade equipment, accept missions, engage enemies on the field or lay siege to towns.
