After developing the game for 2 years, we present to you: Etetgame.

After countless months of development and minor private playtesting. For once the game is becoming somewhat presentable and ready for public view.

Past

I'm "Etet" and this is my originally named game: Etetgame. I've always been a big fan of Xenonauts, Xcom , Phantom Doctorine and other similar games in the genre, but it was always disappointing how tacked on the multiplayer felt in these games. So many times I wanted to play one of these games with my friends and couldn't. So I have decided to make my own.
I've spent about 6 months working on my own, developing the very basic low level engine components and systems on a custom made engine built upon C#/Monogame, I then had a pixel artist join me and make a couple of sprites and leave the team about 2 months afterwards. Having spent 8 months tirelessly working on the game that only a few people have seen, in addition to lacking any sort of artistic skill the project came very close to being abandoned, but through some luck a pixel artist known as "Red" approached me. The next year was spent polishing the UI, UX, Environments, Characters and a lot of underlying technical changes. Now it's looks presentable and plays well, so we're making a move to be public, show our updates, progress, pitfalls, hopes and dreams.

Present

Currently the build open for download is singlelplayer only for the sake of stability and AI testing, however a multiplayer build will be going up by the start of May, after more stability and playtesting a tournament with cash prizes will be hosted in order to really stress test the balance of the game. The tournament will be hosted over on our discord, so please feel free to join and be the first one to hear about it, along with other tactical game enthusiasts!

Future

Going forward we intend to take the game to steam. As for now the goal is to post devlogs of a similar nature, every 1-3 months to keep everyone updated. For more frequent small updates, screenshots and teases make sure to join our discord and follow us on twitter X

This is a start of a very exciting journey and we're happy to have everyone come along with us on it.
