SunAge is a new breed ‘oldschool’ 2D RTS with revolutionary graphics and supersmooth balanced gameplay, while being playable on a vast range of PC’s. The game will include the full set of a singleplayer campaign, skirmish as well as multiplayer battles (LAN & online). SunAge runs on an indie developed engine that had been in development in-house at Vienna based Vertex4 for some time; recently the transfer to Direct X 9 has been made, resulting in better looking environments and vastly improved effects.
Features:
• 3 distinct races - Human, Raak-zun and Sentinel- each with their own units, buildings, technology advantages and disadvantages.
• Alternate modes for all units, dual functionality for greater tactical depth.
• Exploit weaknesses in the enemies network while strengthening your own connection lines
• Formations: Intuitive formation handling and superior overview in battles
• Campaign: 24 map single player campaign with strong storyline.
• Multiplayer: Old skool multiplayer with focus on gathering 4 kinds of resources and outsmarting the opponent in battle.
• Command queuing: Command your units to prone, build or attack where you want them and when you want them to do so.
• Indirect Intelligent Targeting (IIT): order your units to focus on pre-selected targets.
The Story:
SunAge takes place in a futuristic setting across different worlds, ranging from a lush alien planet to the Earth which is reduced to desolate wastelands and industrial cities. In the distant future, the Earth is dying and mankind retreats into sealed cities. A new cult called RaakZun arises, spreading chaos. Our hero battles to protect his Federation and aims to strike at the heart of the Raak Zun’s creed. This opens a gateway to an alien planet and frees up the way for lethal Sentinel drones that will crush any life-forms that get in their way.
