Shattered Worlds

Greetings Arcship Commanders!

Welcome to the Shattered Worlds[www.shattered-worlds.com] Alpha playtest Steam group!

The SciFi Card & Wargame

Shattered Worlds merges the excitement of modern collectible card games with the glory days of hex-based SciFi wargaming. We combine fast-paced card action with tactical positioning. Outthink your opponent on different hex maps filled with space hazards!

There are currently two modes of play: Skirmish & Matchmaking:

Skirmish mode

Selecting a Skirmish game allows you to battle against AI controlled decks made by other players. You can make your own Skirmish deck for other players to battle against, (in your deckbuilder under the Skirmish tab.) If your Skirmish deck wins a battle while you are offline, you will earn credits! Basically, you are always playing against player content.

Matchmaking

If you enable matchmaking, you are actively looking for other players to battle against in a normal PvP manner. Check out the tip below:

How to find opponents

Meet up with other players and make sure you enter the group chat to let people know you are looking for multiplayer opponents.

How to Play, discuss the game or give feedback

You can also ask questions in chat, open a discussion or look into the official Playtest Forums[shattered-worlds.com] to check out our Game Reference Document while we work on a tutorial. Also, you will get notified about announcements or any upcoming events.

Cheerio!

RECENT ANNOUNCEMENTS

Moving to Discord! New playtest available :)

Hi guys,

As most of you have noticed we have had an awfully difficult time keeping you guys updated! Sorry for the silence. We've been absolutely way too swamped with trying to get the game on Steam, finding a way to incorporate the feedback we receive, and keeping our head above the proverbial water :(

Join us on Discord

But, ever onwards we say :) We decided to do away with the forum (and the continous spam/hack/porn attacks pffffff) and create a brand new Discord server to keep any feedback/suggestions for the game as easy to handle as possible. Its a great place to connect with players.

Some of you have already found their way there, and we would love to see the rest of you visit us there as well: Black Zeppelin Discord Server[discord.gg] Looking forward to speaking to you guys again.

Download the new playtest

You can also find a brand new playtest build there that is way more easy for us to keep updated (about every week). So, hopefully you will get a chance to try out our Deck Challenge mode, see what we did with the Captains and their new Archtech progression trees, check out the unified unit cardpool and challenge a dev for a multiplayer game, among other new things.

See you on Discord, and thanks for your support!

Cheerio,

Johndice

Hey guys,

sorry for the long wait for a new playtest build. We've just been trying to put as much of our time into development as we can. I wish we had unlimited time to spend on every aspect, such as keeping you updated and doing the thousands of other things I sometimes feel we should be doing but don't have the time or budget for, but such is dev life Wink

However, the playtest build we compiled for you should give you a fun time trying out some new stuff! And as always we value any input, suggestions and bug reports you might help us out with. As it has been quite a long time since last playtest build, I'll add what I missed.

Version
Upgraded to version 36

3D Perspective
The map is now presented in a preset 3D perspective, offering an interesting point of view during gameplay. The controls are simple: L/R arrows and right mouse click-drag turns the camera, mouse scroll button zooms, while ADWS moves the camera around.

Slice of Space
The maps themselves are no longer square set shapes but offer challenging shapes and corridors to position your units in. The concept is that each map gives more a snense of a 'slice of space' with a more spacelike feel.

Random Skirmish
Each map is now randomly generated for both form and contents. Each time you enter a Skirmish game you will be playing on an entirely new map.

New Menu/Commander selection
Main menu has a new commander centric layout and art. Click on a commander to change commander selection.

Player Consoles
New Player consoles in game.

Free to Move
To get a better grip on Energy curve and balance we've made this playtest build a little different. Movement costs no energy in this build. This means you have more energy left to deploy units.

Campaign/Scenarios
There are now two different scenario's under the campaign tab in the main menu. Each scenario offers you a choice between two commanders to fight in a storybased map, and two different ways of earning campaign points.

These campaign points are totalled to determine the victorious commander and will eventually also determine storybased rewards. Each scenario has a premade maps with some interesting space elements going on, so try it out for yourself. We are eager to see which side of the conflict you will choose.

Cheerio!

John
