Idiotic (The Game) - High pace, low IQ - Movement shooter with dimension switching as a core mechanic


I'm a solo first time indie game developer that's working on my first video game that'll release at the start of march in early access.Idiotic is a passion project inspired by the Titanfall game series (and lack of a third instalment :-P). It has advanced movement inspired by Titanfall (though not copied, I'm still claiming originality on my takes of it), and dimension switching like Titanfall 2's "Effect And Cause".The main concept of the game is in the title "High pace, low IQ".For the first part:I've been building this game with the intention of giving the players the incentive to keep moving. Either between dimensions to heal or by using the entire calibre of movement techniques to stay alive / get to objectives fast enough.For the second part:I love stupid jokes and thanks to the growing community I have plenty in Idiotic. Starting with melee weapons named Josh The Pan to various easter eggs and garlic breadTM hidden around the maps.You'll advance your character by getting Chaos Points by killing enemies or collecting rewards and levelling up, and by collecting "Coints" (community chosen name) to buy permanent boosts. And in addition to the permanent boosts, there are also temporary boosts that you can get and keep for the duration of your mission to make every mission interesting.​The community is also a big part of the development ranging from playtesting to voting on the direction of the game's development.​Currently there are 3 main gamemodes to play:Not-Gauntlet: Try to get the best time in the 2 (current) maps by using every mechanic and glitch you can musterArena: Try to survive as long as you can in the 2 (current) maps as you get rewards every minute and an extraction option every 5 minutes.Destruction: Go out and raise chaos by destroying important science stuff and enemies in a procedurally generated map and get rewards by completing / surviving the challenges in your way.​You can find it on SteamHere is my current trailer (I'll hopefully have a new one in the next few days)You can also follow on the development on r/IdioticTheGameCheersEdit: sorry for the repost, I flair-ed the post correctly this time (I hope) via /r/Games https://ift.tt/50MAQDdRY
