THREAKS

Developer THREAKS will be introducing Battle Planet — Judgment Day to the Playstation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC this October. It’s an arcade shooter where you’ll be traveling to many planets…but not staying long. Just long enough to blast everything in sight. You’re a wanted criminal (possibly for shooting everything all the time) and you’ve got to keep moving. Robots, aliens and a large military army will all hunt you down relentlessly on every planet. But that treasure’s not gonna collect itself, so you gotta shoot shoot shoot! Thanks to random generator algorithms, each planet you visit in Battle Planet — Judgment Day will be different. “In order to create these unusual, spherical levels in the Unity engine,” says THREAKS, “the development team had to test a variety of custom approaches to physics, lighting and shading to make sure they created the right atmosphere for different events, enemies and biomes.” You can hear more from the dev team by watching this behind-the-scenes video below.
