History
Major7th Games is a South African indie startup founded by freelance developer Kyle Lautenbach. Kyle has over 7 years of experience in the industry as a lead writer, narrative designer, and copywriter (marketing, PR, etc). Wait, is he a disgruntled writer who spent years learning the intricacies of UE4 and multiplayer just to potentially earn enough money to survive? Yeah, sounds about right. There’s been plenty of learning, trying, failing, and getting back up again to get here today.
Features
- Seamless transitions between ground and space combat.
- Zero-g Combat
- Multiple classes with varying abilities, characteristics, and playstyles.
- Exciting game modes that offer unique twists on fan favourites and pave the way for numerous experimental additions.
- A universe brimming with personality, stories, and fascinating technology.
- Mod support (still in the planning stages, release date unknown).
