Making Progress
[ 2019-10-16 21:54:41 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hi everyone, It's been a while since our last update, so I wanted to offer a quick rundown of what we've been up to since then. We're still in the process of working through a pretty massive team member transition, as Gavin, the game's new programmer gets up to speed with 5+ years worth of someone else's codebase. With this in mind, we felt that it was wise to initially focus on a broad range of general QOL improvements, polish and fixes across the entire game as he finds his feet, rather than dive into more complex aspects right off the bat. Rest assured that we're actively working towards another fully-fledged update, which will be set live as soon as it's ready. We thank you once again for all of your continual patience, it really means a lot :) Craig

- Monsters and Monocles [Linux] [188 M]
Monsters & Monocles is a frantic, Victorian steampunk themed twin-stick shooter all about using teamwork and heavy weaponry to battle the hordes of evil. A naive occult collector has unknowingly unleashed a great evil that is spreading across the globe, and it’s up to you and a team of quirky paranormal investigators to find the source of this dark energy and blast it back to where it came from.
Take on the challenge solo, or play with up to 4 players online or locally. Your team shares a single pool of lives so you need to stick together, revive fallen comrades, and watch each other’s backs.
Search out and use powerful weapons to aid you in battle like the blunderbuss, stake launcher and the crumpet cannon - a steampunk toaster that fires weaponized crumpets.
Find and equip relics to customize your weapons and add new abilities to match your play style, and upgrade them by looting chests and destroying enemies.
Each level is procedural so you and your comrades will be faced with unique enemy placement, traps, secrets and objectives each time you play. Your trusty airship the HMS Scone acts as your hub and lets you gear up before taking on challenging levels like the haunted mansion, snowy Victorian streets and a cursed Pharaoh’s tomb. Each area ends with a fearsome boss encounter, such as a demonic chimney sweep or a giant cyclops skull.
