Hooded Horse :
July 12, 2024 - Hooded Horse is excited to announce that Breachway, Edgeflow Studio’s sci-fi roguelike deckbuilding game, will enter into early access for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store on August 30, 2024.
Choose from several ship classes as and assemble a crew, customize the loadout, and prepare to engage in dynamic turn-based space battles. Leverage the deck, ship resources, and abilities to maximum effect, and upgrade equipment to unlock new cards, and discover new combinations to take on ever-growing threats while exploring a volatile galaxy full of competing factions in search of “The Signal.”
Breachway’s initial early access offering will feature:
Four ship types, each with their own layouts, synergies, bonuses, and initial faction standings.
Multiple types of combat systems to wield in tense turn-based combat, from lasers and missiles to flak and railguns, and even hacking!
A large collection of over 200 cards to discover to enhance modules and fine-tune the loadout.
Unique characters to recruit as crew, with special abilities to deploy in combat.
A galaxy map with two regions with their own events, enemy types, and boss encounters. Use the fuel system to reach difficult areas, and be wary of environmental hazards that will affect combat!
Four fully fleshed-out factions, each with their own associated events and allegiances.
Meta progression between runs – unlockable ship bonuses, modules, and ship variants.
Space stations, missions, items, random events, and more!
Breachway had a successful run during the February 2024 edition of Steam Next Fest, becoming one of the top 50 most-played demos in an event that featured over 1,000 games. To date, it’s collected over 150,000 wishlists ahead of its early access release.
Breachway will be localized from English into German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, Ukrainian, Russian, Turkish, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Japanese.
Breachway will release into early access for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store on August 30, 2024. A press kit is available.
