Kritter Demo Update v0.7.2

Hey everyone! Before showing you the entire change log, which is clearly not the most interesting read in the world, I would like to thank everyone who played the demo so far. You gave me invaluable feedback to improve the game and its player experience. We are a tiny team of two, a dev and a musician (we are looking for a 3d ninja by the way) and making a multiplayer game is super hard. With your help though, it's starting to look really good Don't hesitate to join our Discord to meet us and give us your feedback. That being said, you'll be happy to know that I fixed a ton of multiplayer bugs and I would love to get your feedback about it! Also, Kritter won its first award (but its not official yet so shhhhh ) and we got featured in a Kotaku article. We are so proud of it and it gave us so much energy to reach new milestones If you like our work and would like to help, well, you are an amazing human being and you could support us on Kickstarter .

[ 2023-07-12 12:19:52 CET ] [ Original post ]

The spaceship Mission Ark 182 (please, call him M.ark) crashes on an unknown planet. Damaged but not destroyed, M.ark activates a survival protocol: creating fighting robots called Kritters to protect and repair him.

YOU are one of them : a fragile, clueless pile of scrap metal with a mission far too big for your tiny frame. But through failure, learning, and repetition, you’ll grow stronger. Explore a hostile world, battle bizarre enemies and uncover the secrets behind M.ark’s crash.

Rise again, adapt and push forward.

Kritter, you are our only hope.

Kritter is a top-down roguelite combining hack 'n' slash and base-building elements. Playable solo or with up to 4 players online, the goal is to defend your spaceship against enemy hordes and gather the necessary resources to repair it.

YOUR KRITTER, YOUR HERO

You embody a Kritter, a type of combat robot created by M.Ark, your spaceship. You have complete control over your Kritter: you will need to juggle between your main weapon, heavy weapon, and constructions to protect M.Ark and attempt to escape this hostile planet.

AN ADVENTURE IN TWO PHASES

A TIME TO DEFEND

During a game, monsters will surge towards your spaceship in "waves". Each time you survive a wave, you'll earn a reward to evolve your Kritter. Will you upgrade one of your attacks? Heal yourself? Opt for more resources? Each game is unique, and your choice will be crucial.

A TIME TO EXPLORE

Between monster waves, you'll have a brief respite. This will be your chance to explore the surroundings in search of valuable resources needed to build defenses or improve your Kritter's statistics. However, beware, as this respite will be short-lived! Always keep an eye on the timer because when it reaches 0... Another wave will hit. Don't leave M.Ark defenseless.

CHOOSE YOUR GAMEPLAY

Your Kritter adapts to your playstyle! You can opt for different classes that drastically change the gameplay. Currently, the game features 3 classes:

  • The Defender: In this form, your Kritter fights in melee combat with a sword. It can leap into the air and crash down on groups of enemies. The Defender can also build a scarecrow to distract and lure monsters wherever desired. The Defender is sturdy and can construct solid stone walls.

  • The Engineer: Your Kritter fights here at mid-range with a flamethrower. A true war machine, the Engineer also shoots sharp nuts around him. It can place turrets that automatically target your opponents. The Engineer is more fragile than its counterparts but more destructive.

  • The Tracker: Your Kritter wields a sniper rifle here; the Tracker can take down targets from kilometers away. It also has a mortar shot for area damage and can place mines along its path to greet those foolish enough to follow. The Tracker creates barriers that its shots can pass through. Handy!

AN OVERWHELMING THREAT

Despite your efforts, it's highly likely that defeat will occur at some point. M.Ark will then rewind time, bringing you back to its cockpit, and everything will need to be done again... Well, almost everything! You'll be able to upgrade your Kritter or M.Ark between games using soul crystals! These major upgrades will make life easier for you: adding a shield around M.Ark, adding a radar to know where enemies are coming from, enhancing your strength, boosting your resources, increasing your life... The choices are numerous!

A STORY THAT UNFOLDS OVER TIME

Kritter is a story of time. When you lose, you rewind time; when you play, you battle against time... The story itself unfolds within this temporal chaos. M.Ark is the narrator of the story... But M.Ark suffers from amnesia! With each defeat, with each return to its cockpit, the story will progress. It is through advancing that M.Ark will gradually remember the reason for our presence here.

DYING IS MORE FUN TOGETHER

Kritter is a demanding game that will require you to face death more than once... So what's better than facing it together? Invite your friends, form squads of up to 4 players, and discover the exciting story of Kritter in cooperative play!
