Ramshackle is a twist on the "vehicular build and combat" genre in that instead of constructing mainly with stand-alone modules or blocks, you have access to point-placed struts and armor plates as your primary structure. In addition to that your vehicle possesses functional modules such as wheels, tank tracks and guns which all need to be fed by engines, transmission lines and ammunition in order to function. This all translates into combat, with simulated ballistic interactions with your armor and modules allowing you to deflect rounds with angled armor, while causing internal mayhem when you strike someone's ammo rack.
Ramshackle will be conducting a public playtest during Steam Next Fest, Oct 13-20.

What is Ramshackle?
Ramshackle is a vehicular building and combat game where you construct vehicles with point-placed struts and armor plates as the core structure, and populate the volumetric interior with modules and systems like crew, engines, ammunition, etc. Multiplayer testing will be the main focus for the week.

Platforms
Ramshackle runs natively on Windows and Linux, but on linux you may encounter some strange shader bugs we haven\'t tracked down yet.
If the native Linux client is unreliable try using Proton.
Performance
We\'re targeting 60 FPS on the Seam Deck and are about halfway there.
Lower-end machines should disable shadows to gain ~15 FPS. Singleplayer battles are more CPU intensive than playing on a server, because your CPU is running the battle AI.
Available Content
Note: we\'re still working on documentation for the game, some parts may be obtuse. We\'ll be updating the Ramshackle Wiki with additional articles throughout the week.
Designer
A complex vehicle designer is included with the game, with a spread of starter vehicles to reverse engineer. Most UI elements have a tooltip that explains their function.
Skirmishes
A 5v5 PVP mode, where empty player slots are filled with bots. Deplete the enemy team\'s tickets to win.
Missions
A simple PVE wave defense style mission is available in the \"Missions\" section of the Deploy menu. More might be added during the week if we have time.
Servers
A couple of Official dedicated servers will be running throughout the week in the US. The playtest includes files to host your own server, which will be useful for playing with friends, or if you want to set one up in your region.
