This is a world you won’t want to leave until you’ve uncovered every secret and followed your destiny to the very end.Įach city offers distinctive ship options and construction paths which will give you the freedom to improve and modify your fleet. The “dieselpunk” visual aesthetic, immersive music and sounds, and underlying mystery of HighFleet combine to create an unforgettable atmosphere. Also engaging in diplomacy with the various factions. Then manage your ships, men, fuel and other resources. You must explore the exotic lands of Gerat. Mastering HighFleet requires much more than winning battles.

Battles are won with skilful maneuvering, targeting and carefully observing the strategic layer of the battle. This is no mindless button mashing, however.

Since the trailer below shows of some very realistic physics based combat.Īt the heart of HighFleet is a unique form of combat in which giant ships bristling with weaponry duel above the desert. But with the developers being so busy, hopefully, we will see a port not long after release. This usually means a further delay in porting the title. Typically when we see a unique game like HighFleet using a custom engine. Although the initial release will almost certainly be on PC only. And yes, we have plans to release the game on Linux. Will it be as narratively rich (and silly) as I want it to be? I suppose I could go find out: there's a demo for download right now on Steam.We use our own engine.

If Townseek has even a bit of that surrounded by some relaxing farming and fishing and trading, rather than wasteland death, then I am fully ready to board its adorable airships. I'm the sort of person who liked Flotilla, or FTL, or Nowhere Prophet, or Highfleet, for the places you could visit and the (sometimes unfulfilled) promise of surprising, delicious story events awaiting inside. That's presumably how you can switch out your dirigible balloon for a shark, or a bunny, or whatever else. While travelling, you'll discover new towns, trade with the local sharkfolk, cats and slimes, and then go fishing or farm fruits.Įach town you find will offer quests to complete which will improve your reputation with the locals and unlock new upgrades and cosmetics. You'll be flying your ship around the world of Explora in order to discover "the lost legacy of Sir Reginald Sharkingston," says the press release about Townseek signing with publisher Super Rare.
