Engage in Large Scale Vehicular Warfare in Medievalpunk Title War of Wheels

[TheLostSwede]

Bologna-based independent developer Dreambits Studio are pleased to unveil their Medievalpunk demolition derby game War of Wheels, coming soon to Steam. Explore the destructible environments of the realm and smash through automobile armies in this epic single-player experience, with a new demo available now!

In War of Wheels, speed through fierce battles in the kingdom of Zeranthia as you fight opposing armies, while building your own, as you attempt to gain control of Aether, the kingdom's powerful source of magic. Discover multiple realms, filled with arctic glaciers and scorching volcanoes, as well as cities, dense forests and vast plains. Discover hidden secrets, outposts and Aether mines, as well as huge pitched battles to test the capabilities of your combat car.




With large scale battlefields to fight in, combining long range and close quarters weapons, alongside unique class skills, are essential to your strategy to conquer the different terrains and enemies you'll encounter. Choose from the Knight, Ranger, Assassin and Barbarian classes, each offering different abilities, strengths and weaknesses as you pursue the Aether.

In addition to the battlefield, players can prove who is the ultimate war driver in gladiatorial games - timed tests of skill found throughout the empire. These games are played in epic arenas full of traps, obstacles and destructible environments as you fight against seven opponents in a battle to decide the overall champion.

"Myself and the rest of the team are incredibly proud to finally announce War of Wheels," said Luca Appio, founder of Dreambits Studio. "In creating a single-player, role playing experience with a rarely seen Medievalpunk setting, we've come up with a different kind of vehicular combat game, and we can't wait to see the reaction to it when people play the demo."

While you wait for the full release, lead your automobile army to battle in the Steam demo, available now!

Not the same thing but it made me think of Carmageddon. One of the most psychotic games I've ever played. Get bonus funds from running over old women using a walker and blind people on sidewalks.

I would play this game if it turns out good.

Looks really "meh" to be honest.

I'm closely following this game instead:

A lot has already changed since that trailer, just hasn't made it to the Demo. It's worth hopping onto their Discord, the devs are really engaged with the crowd.

These guys are high. Really high, like the phone is ringing when it isn't kind of high.

I LOVED twisted metal as a kid. Sweet Tooth, the clown car, was my absolute favourite. This could just let me relive that youthful glee again.

Warthog was best in original game. Those heat seekers if you knew where power locations made that vehicle pretty much untouchable. You just lead them around on a chess match of hide and seek from one power up location to the next while firing heat seekers and chip away at their health. That's probably why Huntress in Risk of Rain 2 is so good as well it's the same idea.

This game has no old women with walkers, auto fail.

It looks decidedly dead inside if you ask me. No soul. Carmageddon took things to 11 in its own way, it had a soul. This? Slap some assets in a game engine, add logo and so-so mechanics and release. Where's the humor, a touch of flair, I don't know something.

This is not that. It tries to, but its so far from it, you can see from the screenshots already this has avoid plastered all over.

When I first read the title I was excited but when I watched the trailer physics and damage appears to be poorly executed. Shame

Typical Unity Game Poor physics Poor assets
