Crossed Sword Game Studios
Announcement: New Game
I know I’ve been gone for a while, I’ve been working on some of the other important things in my life, but I am proud to say not only to expect more updates soon (Bad Timing actually since I probably won’t be on here for the next 3 days for personal reasons) but also I am working on a new game!
Most of you guys know what the flowjam is. Some of you were even there for the first, I was. If you’ve been here for at least a year you most likely participated or knew about the Flowjam: Summer Jam, the second flowjam that took place about a year and a bit ago.
For this flowjam the theme was “It’s all about time”, and so I created a game called “Chrono Space”, a time travel puzzle game and submitted it to the flowjam and lost, rightly so. It was top down so the controls were wack and annoying, the story was horrible, I only got around 3 levels done and the best thing about it was the art.
Well, I am proud to say instead of rebooting it or remaking it because honestly the game likely needs fixing more than a remake and I’m doing a lot of those lately I am deciding to give it a soft reboot.
Crossed Sword Game Studios has officially begun work on Chrono Space: Mechanical Mayhem!
The Story:
In 2025 the Aliens known as the Katahn invaded Earth. To help battle against a threat Thomas Blackwell and his corporation was tasked with building a robot army to take care of the aliens, in which they did.
After 5 years of war the robots finally drove the aliens away from Earth. Unfortunately, during the war, Blackwell and his council decided use the robots for world domination.
Using the robots Blackwell and his company took over the world and thus 19 years later the future was a terrible place where Blackwell’s robots roam the streets of every town, keeping everyone trapped in this nightmare society where he contols everything in his ‘perfect’ world.
Despite the dystopian dictator enslaving humanity there was still hope as a resistance, one so big yet still managing to stay off the grid, plotted to undo all of this.
Using Time Travelling technologies the resistance send their best soldier former marine Connor Morgan back to 2029, one year before the war ends to take out all of the members of Blackwell’s inner circle.
The game follows you as Connor as you venture through Earth during one of its greatest conflicts trying to stop Blackwell and his equals from achieving world domination. Its an action pixel platformer shooter game and my attempt to make a game from the 1990’s.
This won’t interrupt my work on the A Tale of Light and Darkness Remake or any other of my projects, this is just a new one. And if this game comes out okay I am planning to do 2 sequels and potentially more!
