Our weekly news blast is back, bringing you all the latest from the world of Broken Lines!
Sandbox Adventures
The reaction that we had to our Sandbox scenes have been very interesting to see as many people were genuinely surprised to see level design carried out in this way.
As each photo we took tells a story, each week we’re going to take one of the photos and explain what is going on in it.
In this scenario, the black figure on top of the hill is covering the area with a large machine gun. The green guy had been attracting attention from the gunfire behind cover, but the cover, unfortunately, broke down under the pressure from the machine gun, so he is now lying on the floor wounded.
However, his efforts were enough to divert attention away from the blue/ grey guy (with the movement line) who had snuck forward and is now close enough to toss a grenade at the machine gunner.
Broken Lines Dev Diaries
Are you interested in learning how we’ve created Broken Lines? If so, you’re in luck! We’ve been working on creating a few dev diary videos that we’ve uploaded on Youtube, and currently, we have two videos for you to watch.
The first of our dev diaries gives you an overview into the gameplay found in Broken Lines
Our second video looks at how we’ve worked with shooting in our game
Broken Lines Community and Beta
We are looking for beta testers to play through the game, find bugs and tell us what you feel needs improving.
If you think you are up to the task, sign up here for a chance to get into the beta program!
Please note, signing up does not guarantee a beta position as the spaces are limited.
Furthermore, if you want to talk to the developers, get to know the other people playing Broken Lines, or simply want to learn more about the game, join us on Discord today!
Game Development Fun
If you’ve been following us for a while, you may have noticed that we’re firm believers of having fun while we create our game.
Keeping true to our beliefs, we’ve created some more unique designs for some of our characters, like this ‘silly’ version of Avery!
When testing Broken Lines, we recently came across what can only be explained as a member of the Monty Python Ministry of Silly Walks.
This enemy soldier, though under heavy fire, has decided to practice his silly walk and share it with the world.
And that’s it for this week’s news blast, we hope that you’ve enjoyed it! If you have, please consider following us on our Social Media platforms for more Broken Lines content:
