Broken Lines Weekly News Blast - Blocktober Edition
Last week we introduced a before-and-after image taken from Broken Lines, and it was really popular so we wanted to continue with some more images and videos that show this. This month, in particular, we have a special opportunity as its Blocktober! What is Blocktober you ask? It is an event that takes part during October where game developers and designers celebrate the art of level design. They do this by looking back at the early stages of level design when the game is put together in blocks. We do have a very interesting history with using blocks, but perhaps not the same blocks that most game developers use. What exactly do we mean by that? Well check out this slideshow, it explains everything! [previewyoutube=LYsu1Sek8f0;full][/previewyoutube] It is important that game developers have fun while working on their projects!
Continuing with our look on the Voice Acting, weve got the next clip taken from our recording session with Cissy Jones. [previewyoutube=SEWH9Y1EVeo;full][/previewyoutube]
We are looking for beta testers to play through the game, find bugs and tell us what you feel needs improving. If you think you are up to the task, sign up here for a chance to get into the beta program! Please note, signing up does not guarantee a beta position as the spaces are limited. Furthermore, if you want to talk to the developers, get to know the other people playing Broken Lines, or simply want to learn more about the game, join us on Discord today!
When looking back at our older screenshots (like the one below) you may have noticed just how different the character models looked. But, did you know that there was a reason why they looked like that? These models were not placeholders, in-fact, the original design for Broken Lines was that the soldiers would resemble miniatures, which also explains the rather large plate found under them, they were all designed to look like one!
And thats it for this weeks news blast, we hope that youve enjoyed it!

The squad has crash-landed behind enemy lines, in the heart of Eastern Europe. With no officers, no leaders, and no intel, they must find an unbreakable resolve if they are to survive.
But with only their training and instincts to guide them, survival becomes a difficult goal. First of all, they need to learn to work together to have any hope of coping with the challenges ahead.
Each survivor has their own views on what to do, and their own principles on what is acceptable. Some want to investigate what caused their crash, others want to stay low and avoid detection by the enemy. There are even whispers of desertion.
It is your task to be the unseeing hand that will guide this ragtag group of soldiers through their struggles. Make your decisions wisely, for they will have real consequences on the fates of the survivors.
- Tactical RPG with diverse characters. Experience the story through the eyes of each soldier as they fight for survival in an alternative WW2 setting.
- Turn-based planning with simultaneous execution (WeGo turn-based gameplay)
- Authentic tactical choices: suppression, destructible cover, realistic ballistics, and camouflage are at your disposal.
- Rogue-like campaign structured with different narrative paths, resources, and permadeath.
- A challenge for even the most experienced gamer. A far-reaching moral system means that the soldiers may desert at any moment if you prove to be incompetent.
- An emotional story, tense atmosphere, and multiple endings based on the decisions that you make.
“Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may
be; for without victory, there is no survival.”
― Winston Churchill
