Broken Lines - Game Physics and Let's Plays
If youve been following us for a while, you may have noticed that quite a few of the bugs that weve been sharing seem to be related to the games physics. We wanted to figure out why some of the soldiers turn into ragdolls when they are killed (they would twitch all over the place and randomly fly into the distance). So our Lead Programmer placed a model inside some carefully positioned walls to try and trigger the bug.
As you can see, we were able to reproduce the bug, which makes fixing it so much easier!
The fifth Broken Lines dev diary has just been published! In this edition, we focus on the primary weapons and their abilities. Each primary weapon has a normal auto-fire mode and a special ability that the player has to manually activate. [previewyoutube=q2k582D7PgE;full][/previewyoutube]

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
