In the real world, blades bend, vibrate, and stabilize; #BLOODFALL physically simulates high-frequency harmonic Resonance so impacts propagate through materials, producing precise, responsive combat instead of rigid, toy-like reactions.

The musical rhythm was made entirely from in-game gunshots and artillery SFX. The result - the track sounds like it belongs in the game world, not a layer on top of it.

YouTuber Random Madness Reacts to SHELLSTORM! “It is seriously fun… very, very, very, very pleasantly surprised...I very much like what I see, and I gotta say in this Steam Next Fest it was the most pleasant surprise for me"

“There’s something about the solo hunt, kind of like 6 Days in Fallujah where you can play with a fire team, but when you play alone, it’s basically a survival horror experience…

excited to show even larger explosions and deformation from 6 pounder cannons, 75mm field guns, and heavy artillery - capable of destroying the very mountains within levels and creating entirely new routes for soldiers to traverse.

Valentin praised both large-scale and subtle environmental deformation from grenades and bullets as he stocked up on grenades and flattened entire cliffs, showing our authentic voxel-based terrain deformation system.

“The terrain deformation is very nice… you would think that by this time it would be quite common but it isn’t - not in strategy titles, not in shooters…

Can you guess what happens when the player steps into the ancient #temple?

We are constructing a monolithic temple for Blade & Bloodfall. Read more about the project at: www.hypermadinteractive.com

Rather than using wall textures, we’re placing every massive 3D stone by hand to give a sense of weight.

Yes! Especially if it each of those pop events had a “tick” sound . Not too loud or long, just a soft and short tick. The sound needs to be short enough to prevent excessively overlapping with itself since you can have 20+ sounds in a second if you move the mouse ver fast.

This hour marks the completion of the October #SteamNextFest for #SHELLSTORM: The Great #War #Demo and we just received our results

Just 7 days ago, SHELLSTORM had 0 #Wishlists. Today we have ⭐️1035 Wishlists! Next step - improving the #game with all the feedback we received!

What's most exciting is that 1 in 4 people who visited the page added the demo to their library. It would be awesome if Streamers, Youtubers, and Press also take notice over the next few days. Either way, the numbers show clear interest. @pcgamer.com @indiegameswtf.bsky.social @igdmag.com #RTS
