Her long awaited vacation cut short by an orbital invasion, bounty hunter Ethelyn Dax takes on a whole army of mercenaries and their robotic auxiliaries to reconquer the resort city of Ctesiphon.
Blast your way through seven levels and a climactic bossfight with an old rival, making use of an arsenal of varied weapons to take on a multitude of enemies. Level design is open-planned, encouraging you to flank enemies, find alternate paths, and scout for secrets.
Made from scratch over the course of nearly a decade by a single developer on Linux using C/C++, OpenGL, and open-source Quake mapping tools (with the exception of the key art, music, and a couple of textures). The entire game, the engine it runs on, and the tool stack for all the assets went through multiple rewrites and long hiatuses before finally taking its final form in the last couple years of development.
I was a little too busy to properly announce anything ahead of time, but Ctesiphon got a spot in Zlimbratski\'s awesome Brutal Indies Unleashed Showcase!
Edit: The demo is now out right here on Steam!
[strike]Alas my humble trailer made a liar out of me and the demo isn\'t playable as of writing. However, the build was uploaded a few days ago and is merely awaiting approval from Steam. I will make it live as soon as I\'ve gotten the green light, most certainly early next week.[/strike]
Progress is steadily being made on Ctesiphon\'s full release. I\'ll need to crunch and will probably have to take some time off work but I\'m committed to releasing the game in November or December at the latest. In the meantime watch the VOD, subscribe to ZlimBratSki on Youtube, and try some of the many, many demos already featured in the showcase!
