The game is currently in Beta, it is in need of a dedicated audience, testers, helpers and contributors.
If you're interested please join our Discord server: https://discord.gg/HXdFMdDcNG.
The basic mechanics of the game are up and running, you can build a car or a hovercraft equipped with laser guns and duke it out with your friends.
Still to come:
- New vehicles such as walkers, airplanes, helicopers and balloons
- New weapons such as machines guns and bomb launchers
- Online progress and unlock system with different tiers of vehicles
- Comprehensive customization options for vehicles
- In-game store and premium currency for cosmetic unlocks
A bit of a small patch, since we were slowed down by marketing, funding and administrative burdens, but were keeping up some interesting changes
Virtual garage slots
The game now features so-called virtual garage slots that allow players to build with every part and module in the game, but only use those builds in practice. A given virtual build can be upgraded to a real build, if the needed tech has been unlocked and enough parts/cash are available.
Virtual builds can also be imported from a blueprint code, although the usual import fee still applies.
Virtual garage slots can be earned trough play, and will also be included in the playtester package.
Social functions
We are building out social functions to help build out the community around Diode Arena and to help you play with your friends, currently we just have a basic framework although concrete functions will expand quickly
