Severed Moon - Main menu title

Severed Moon is a battle arena game focuses on  LAN and Hotseat Co-op or VS battles.

It was inspired by my favorite game from childhood, Future Cop LAPD.

"Story"

The game is set on a distant future where earth has been taken over by flying machines and the remaining humans must escape the terror by moon turned into spaceship.

Features

  • Multiplayer (LAN and Hot-Seat)
  • Co-op vs AI
  • In-game Power Ups
  • Tank modification : Just unlockable weapons and all participating players will have access to the same weapons (unlocked by any players) in multiplayer mode
  • Spawn-able Units (Aircraft*/Hovercrafts*)
  • Capturable Outposts*

[Features marked with * are actually completed, the rest are just plans which can be changed due to my inability or simply if I change my mind. I actually have a shit ton of features to add in my personal list but don't want to add to many incomplete stuff here]

Development

The game is currently being developed by just one person, Ferdowsur Asif (me).  I have been casually practicing game dev for a few years. I have been mostly developing random stuff privately for fun. Now  I just finished my studies and finally want to settle down and start my career as a professional game developer(/programmer).
