5s | Coenen concord is kind of a new genre |
---|---|
7s | it's a survival RTS game it's not a |
12s | traditional realtime strategy game you |
14s | have a lot of spinning plates there is a |
16s | lot to worry about it's not just build |
19s | an army build a base going attack the |
21s | other guy you're defending up against |
23s | waves of enemy attackers and the waves |
25s | get progressively more difficult you |
27s | know you're Conan you're in front of |
28s | this Citadel that you're supposed to |
29s | defend they get more challenging they |
31s | get more deadly there's this clock |
33s | that's ticking and the drumbeats are |
35s | going in the background they're getting |
36s | gradually louder you know something |
39s | nasty is gonna have to play by yourself |
41s | or with a friend you're gonna try and |
43s | survive through so many waves to see how |
45s | long you can remain uncommon |
49s | a petroglyph we've kind of continued |
55s | along with our strategy game DNA and RTS |
58s | kind of game DNA I mean pretty much |
61s | anything fantasy and sci-fi is gonna get |
63s | people around here interested but Conan |
65s | is one of the top ones object and being |
67s | able to make the first you know strategy |
69s | based Conan game that was huge to us so |
72s | it's kind of a conquered you're not |
74s | really fighting against a base you're |
75s | fighting against the elements and over |
78s | oiling odds so depending on you how you |
82s | setup the game and the customization |
84s | you'll be pitted against you know a find |
87s | out a number of ways or even an infinite |
88s | amount of waves we've built in a lot |
90s | more simulation that we ever have in any |
92s | other game you're managing a lot more |
94s | resources so there's a lot of different |
96s | choices to make on which resources you |
99s | actually want to go out and and gather |
101s | and harvest to determine like what type |
104s | of things you want to build the worlds |
107s | are randomly generated as well so it's |
110s | not the same map that you play every |
112s | time it's a new experience every time |
115s | you really have to layer in a lot of the |
117s | strategy and challenge elements we're |
120s | trying to Concord that's kind of what |
122s | we're trying to do with the multiple |
124s | enemy types that have different |
126s | behaviors you have to deal with with |
128s | environmental effects such as disease |
130s | and sandstorms and fire all of those |
133s | things or the challenges the strategy |
135s | comes in you know what buildings you |
137s | build how you spend your resources what |
140s | unit you're using to combat the |
141s | challenges the other nice thing about |
142s | cut and conquer it is that you can not |
144s | only play solo play you can play |
146s | cooperatively as well with a friend or a |
148s | stranger you can match make and find a |
150s | stranger to play with the two players |
151s | can play together and play against |
154s | even worse waves than the solo version |
157s | they are much more powerful they'll come |
160s | from multiple directions at once very |
162s | early so it'll take all both of you |
165s | working together to survive one of the |
167s | most exciting things that players can |
169s | experience is the multiplayer aspect of |
171s | Kona an unconquered we thought that was |
173s | a great opportunity to give fans kind of |
176s | a different way to play a survival RTS |
178s | game it's just fun to kind of share the |
180s | challenge it is so much fun to share |
181s | that victory you know with somebody and |
183s | it's also nice too because one person |
185s | could manage one thing was somebody else |
186s | manages something else I think that the |
188s | main impetus for making this game was |
192s | our love for other experiments are going |
195s | on in the RTS genre right now I am a big |
198s | fan of frost punk we all fell in love |
200s | with their billions I want to make a |
202s | game that has some some of the elements |
204s | that that this has because it's really |
207s | fun to you know like build and survive |
210s | these are great games and they're great |
212s | examples of a survival strategic game |
216s | that that we thought me and that's |
218s | that's really good what else could we do |
220s | with that taking their billions means |
223s | stronghold and then putting it in that |
225s | mode Colossus storyline from Robert |
228s | Howard you know that's well known from |
229s | you know the old Conan comic books and |
231s | eBooks yeah it's very savage and brutal |
234s | just like I take Conan look like oh yeah |
236s | Conan what is best in life you see your |
239s | enemies driven before you and to play |
242s | the strategy that's right |
