Battle Bridge is now GOLD!

Hello everyone,

Big Announcement

Battle Bridge is now officially a game and its complete! ( Well technically )
After years of on and off and on and off development its time to go Gold this year. With a few iteration change, some rewrites, and some feature creep its finally done!

A quick history recap

On 27 January 2021, Battle Bridge was a R&D project for a FPS "bridge combat" something like a star trek or battleship Yamato where you view the space battle on the bridge, hence the project name "Battle Bridge". However there was 1 crucial limitation. Assets!

Because of that the first major iteration was to change to a R&D for Voyager Combat or "JRPG" style active combat hybrid. And the first Prototype was late August that same year.

Fast forward to this last year, where a big push to get the game to a more playable state and with some self restructuring this year on game dev it was time to get Battle Bridge to the finish line!

Key Feature 

Battle Bridge Have 3 main weapon Archetypes

• Fast and Low Damage 
• Balance (default)
• Slow and High damage

Along with main weapons you also have access to Special weapons and bonuses which is called "Systems" such as

• Stun weapon ( reset enemies weapon action bar )
• Damage over time weapon
• Auto Attack
• Weapon buffs
• and more

This game uses an hybrid turn base system, which was one of the main R&D task which is the "Action Turn Base", a similar resemblance to Final Fantasy 12/13 where by the Action Commands needs to fill up the "action bar" and then you can perform said action once its ready.

Also there is a hybrid shield system that i was trying out. a slight little mesh up with "FTL style shield" system and traditional RPG "shield".

And Lastly using the C.O.R.E System, yes i do love fallout a lot so here we are. 4 attribute for you to choose to level up using a progressive leveling system akin to souls game ( note: this is not a souls game ), as you do not gain experience but use a unified currency. 

With that some feature cuts were made. 

Previous build(s) i wanted a "Mining" gameplay so juggling between 2~3 currency. But that takes too much time to balance each other out and after many playthroughs it was deem unnecessary and i decided to cut that gameplay loop out. 

Next a visual overhaul, this was the biggest task on the list to bring Battle Bridge out from its prototype build. The first was to make sure that i am staying on Unity ( due to Unity was in a mess due to its various "fees", luckily they sort it out for the better ) and use their Universal Render Pipeline. some time was spend since April this year to learn and understand  the basics of it.

 And Lastly, the Release date!

Technically i can launch the game today, but i want to sync up with the date that i decided to put my idea to paper which is on the 27 of January 2021. To commemorate this Battle Bridge Full v1 build will be release on 27 January 2025!

and you get to play the demo version today!

until then see you on the release day!
