Week 11 developer update vlog for Pixel Rush: RTS - Campaign mode is nearing completion!
These last two weeks (and the previous two, and probably the next two as well) were focused on a massive overhaul to the Player vs Engine ("single player") campaign experience. The campaign mode launches players into semi-scripted unique challenges that offer players the ability to earn "Stars" depending on their performance in the battle.
Campaign Mode
Three new biomes were introduced to the free roam world - Beach, Cave and Dungeon, packed with all new levels. There are now 34 unique levels implemented across the four available biomes. I show you a quick topological and thematic view of some of the new campaign levels implemented, and we roam around the level select world a little bit showing off the new textures and theming.
Boss Battles
Each biome comes loaded with 2 new boss battles implemented that challenge the players ability to diversify their deck and adjust to unique challenges.
Tutorial Mode
In addition to the campaign updates; a tutorial mode was introduced, that walks the player through the basic game mechanics such as playing monsters, evolving monsters, capturing towers, playing spells and how to maximize value and last but not least winning the game!
Spell card art
Last but not least, spell cards also received a custom texture this update as well, to distinguish them from regular monster cards.
Watch the demo below:
The game is planned to release exactly 41 weeks from today, on June 22 2027, and in this video I go over the content improvements made over the last two weeks.
Pixel Rush: RTS is a 3D real-time strategy deck builder coming to Steam for PC. Pixel Rush: RTS is an upcoming indie game, with early access available on my website (and soon to be demo on steam). I’ll be posting weekly or at least biweekly dev updates covering development progress, gameplay changes, new features, balance updates, visuals, and everything else leading up to launch. Thanks again for following the project this early. There’s a lot more Pixel Rush: RTS on the way. #PixelRushRTS #PixelRush #RTS #IndieGame #GameDev #Devlog #StrategyGame #DeckBuilder #Godot #SteamGames
