"Stormgate: A Stellar RTS Crafted by Ex-StarCraft Developers"
Stormgate, an upcoming RTS game developed by Frost Giant, a team of ex-StarCraft developers, offers a gameplay experience reminiscent of StarCraft. The game features the Infernal Host faction, which spreads corruption across the map using a new mechanic called Shroud. Units standing on Shroud gain extra health, creating a natural deterrent to early harassment. The faction collects a unique resource called Animus from fallen units, allowing players to perform special rituals. The Infernal Host encourages wave tactics and doesn't prioritize the survival of individual units. The faction includes units like the Brute, Gaunt, Weaver, Magmadon, and Doombringer. The pre-launch page for the Stormgate Kickstarter is now live.
