PANTROPY Sci-Fi Mech/FPS Hybrid Heading to Kickstarter and Steam

A sci-fi faction multiplayer shooter with mechs and focus on building and crafting

Pantropy – a Sci-fi Mech/FPS Hybrid with RPG elements along with strong PVE and PVP gameplay. The game is officially launching on Kickstarter Feb 6, 2018, and is slated to release on Steam PC in Early Access 2H of 2018 post-crowdfunding. The game transports players into an alien rich where they’ll experience exciting FPS gameplay allowing them to compete with each other or band together in factions to endure the difficult challenges that may unfold.

“We added this faction system to reduce frustration and to increase the cooperative gameplay experience for our players, we strongly felt a clear 2-Faction system was not present enough in other games out there on the marketplace today.”, says Sebastian Kaulitzki, Executive Producer

Pantropy has no micro-transactions or in-game purchases. It returns to the roots of online gaming where players earn rewards through skill and determination, not dollars. In order to gear up, players must scavenge for resources to craft tools, weapons, armor, vehicles, and buildings to protect themselves from the vicious alien fauna.

Pantropy takes place on a post spacecraft, hostile alien world around the year 2100 AD. Cooperative gameplay allows players to explore, gather resources, create custom bases, build mighty mechs individually or with others simultaneously, research new equipment, develop new technologies with an in-depth crafting system (almost everything in Pantropy needs to be crafted). Missions assigned in the game are designed to dynamically react to the player and influence the world around them.

Pantropy is set to hit Kickstarter February 6, 2018, and has an active campaign on Thunderclap reaching over 1.3 million reach thus far:https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/62125-pantropy-game-on-kickstarter
