Project title:
Cry of Athena: VR Battle Simulator
Team name:
Simulated Minds
Description: Create your own battles by summoning armies from a wide range of historical eras, fiction, and folklore - watch them fight, intervene with god powers or join in the battlefield yourself. Cry of Athena features a variety of AI, environment destruction, battle creation, and on the ground VR combat. If you are familiar with games like Totally Accurate Battle Simulator, this is of the same genre but involves in-depth player mechanics in VR. We’re currently in a Closed Alpha phase and are looking to finish off the rest of the major systems!
