What is the game about?
WarBots is a Tactical Shooter and Building Game. There are a lot of games out there where the player can design his own robot / ship / vehicle, like RoboCraft, Besiege and GearUp, and they are all good for some casual hours of fun. However, with WarBots we are aiming to revolutionize this genre in generall.** The target: Combine creativity and immersion** in a versatile and tactial FPS environment. WarBots takes place in a semi ScienceFictional setting and and aims for a non-cartoonish, realistic graphical experience. The player is able to design his own WarBot: Mechanical fighting, vehicle based robots, aiming to destroy the enemeys core. The player has to build his WarBot completely from scratch, with elements like rods, rotators, spinners, hydraulics, flamethrowers, sawblades, wheels and lots and lots of more elements, all customizeable in a lot of ways. Once done so, he can switch from his humanoid FPS Character to his WarBot that’s up to 20 times his size to dominate the battlefield.
What is us important in the development of WarBots?
Gameplay:
Make the main GameMode Tactical-based. Fun, but with lots of adrenaline and immersion. WarBots (the actual bots) are equaly important to win a match like the humanoid FPS-Characters.
Create a acchievement based unlock-system, unlike from for example RocketLeague.
Team:
We are all friends. We do not want to be just programmers and artists for a project. We like a relaxed and friendly atmosphere between all our team-members.
Who are we?
Programmer: (aka. )
Hello to who may ever reads this! My name is and I am a 21 year old information-technology student from germany. I started coding back when I was 15 years old and always loved creating in any form: Playing guitar, writing stories and - above all - programming. I really like working as a team and enjoy the feeling of “raising your child and watch it grow”. I would describe myself as a very open minded person, and really hope others would confirm that. :rolleyes:
Sound-Artist: Phillipe (aka. Godlag)
My name is Philippe. I’m 28 years old. I studied composition and violin performance in Paris, Stuttgart and Munich high conservatories. I’m passionated with video games since I’m young. So for me it was natural to do both : writing music for video games ! What I like more is the collaboration in the team, be close to the developers and to produce soundtracks that perfectly fit the overall game-experience.
3D-Artist: Tim (aka. Xonos)
pending
3D-Artist: Samm
Hi, my name is Samm and I’m a 3D-Artist for about 4 years now and live in the United States. Preferably I design environments and hardsurfaced-props. Needless to say, I of course also love video-games.

The project is still in a early phase (Core-Framework programming, designing visual concepts), so lots of possibilites to integrate yourself into the project.
