Set 100 years in the future, players must battle inter-dimensional flesh spawn across the solar system and defend Earth’s colonies from complete annihilation.
The pace is steady, but the stakes are high as the relentless hordes amass in an effort to overrun the player’s mobile command centre.
Unlike traditional games in the genre, the player will be relying heavily on micro-managing dynamic action-based abilities. As they progress deeper into the campaign airstrikes, charged attacks, fortification walls and the tactical drone will become increasingly vital and deploying them strategically will be paramount.
Mistakes won’t go unpunished so the player must stay frosty, learn from their blunders and endure to fight another day. Without pain there can be no gain!
Throughout development, Immersion has always been at the top of the team’s priority list. Every feature and mechanic was conceptualized with the intention of keeping the player fully engaged in the battlefield.
The audio and graphics have all been built from the ground up, handcrafted by the art team to capture the games aesthetic and setting. The artistic style of 2112TD will induce intense hits of nostalgia into the minds of veteran RTS players of the 90s and early 2000s.
GAME OVERVIEW
BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED ENVIRONMENTS AND GRAPHICS
2112TD’s artistic style is founded on the nostalgia of the RTS golden era, paying homage to games like Command and Conquer and StarCraft.
A CAMPAIGN TO TEST YOUR SKILLS
The battlefield is an unforgiving landscape and every second counts. Beginners will find forgiveness on normal mode while veterans will be drawn to the brutal challenge of hard. When you’re ready it’s time to put your skills to the test in survival. How long can you hold back the hordes?
BURN, BLAST AND OBLITERATE
Deploy the machine gun, flame thrower, artillery and plasma turrets to destroy your foes. Upgrade your towers to their experimental stages packing serious firepower and charged attacks.
DEATH FROM ABOVE
When the situation gets too hairy you’ll be relying on air support. The airstrike and tactical drone deliver the big BOOM as well as defensive abilities.
RESEARCH TO VICTORY
Earth’s egg heads are working tirelessly to gain the upper hand against the new enemy. Unlock new abilities and weapons as you progress.
DISCOVER AND DOMINATE
They call it the soldier’s dictionary. The tactical database gathers data on the battlefield about your arsenal and enemies alike. Be sure to check it often as it will be critical to your triumph against the hordes.
2112TD
Earth is suffering the aftermath of a devastating fifty-year conflict known as the Terminal War. Over half of the global population was obliterated in unprecedented mass genocides. Entire nations were left barren with natural resources depleted and nuclear fall out decimating what was left. In this desperate climate, the Advanced Technologies Corporation thrived. As an independent arms dealer the ATech made unimaginable profits and became the only remaining super power with jurisdiction in what is left of the world. Their private security forces and monopoly of wealth have allowed them to dominate the planet in what can only be described as the largest coup in the history of mankind. After the war, the ATech formed the United Earth and emerged as the leaders of the new world. They hid their military operations in industrial departments and concentrated their wealth in space exploration. The people of Earth had no choice but to rely upon the very company that engineered their destruction. ATech currently run large scale mining operations across the breadth of the solar system, increasing their stakes in both power and territory.
But, this is 2112AD and everything is about to change…
Around the end of the war UE scientist’s detected gravitational anomalies in the planetary orbits of our solar system. Each planet’s orbital alignment had started to become increasingly unstable resulting in a mysterious ‘wobbling’ effect.
This effect has become so strong that it threatens to throw our solar system into complete chaos by propelling each planet out of orbit. Even with the most advanced technologies and the presence of human colonies throughout the solar system, scientists have been unable to identify the cause of this bizarre anomaly and where it is coming from. Until now…
23rd December 2112.
Scientists at the United Earth Research Initiative (UERI) have been monitoring Voyager 2, a space satellite launched by NASA in 1977. Communication with V2 was lost when it became the only spacecraft to leave our solar system. On the 21st December 2112, after 84 years of silence, the satellite began sending signals back to Earth.
The UERI analysed the data and made a shocking discovery. V2 had recorded what was first believed to be the formation of a new planet. Its appearance coincided with an incredible temporal distortion in the region of space it seemed to enter. However, upon closer inspection this spherical object appeared to be anything but an inanimate ball of rock. It was moving and its trajectory was headed straight towards our solar system, fast.
6 hours ago contact was lost with a UERI vessel conducting studies in the outer orbit of Pluto. Just before the silence, we received several disturbing messages. Reports started coming through of crew members behaving increasingly erratically. The crew was nearing rotation and this behavior was attributed to cabin fever and nothing more. Then came the violence. Images of brutality that made the atrocities of the war seem like play-fights in comparison. So much blood. Figures emerged from the screams and laughter echoing through the corridors. Inhuman, distorted figures that tore in a frenzied blood lust through the ship.
Through the portholes of the bloodied cabins an enormous sphere could be seen pulsating its way through space. Through UERI remote imaging software we were able to make out it’s fleshy surface. It is organic and it is ejecting millions of hostile organisms into our solar system. Visual communication was lost.
As commander of the United Earth Defense Initiative it will be your duty to defend our colonies and home world and save us from what might be the extinction of man kind. We have automated defense systems ready to be deployed in order to hold back the hell spawn.
