But since then the developer has made consistent improvements.
#Dysmantle switch code
I originally came across their work back on PS Vita with Crimsonland, a kinda basic twin-stick shooter which I won a code for through a podcast I was listening to at the time. The title comes to us from developer 10tons who have been going from strength to strength in their output of quality video games. From Twin Stick Beginningsĭysmantle is a top-down action game with survival elements. Review code provided with many thanks to 10tons. As you ascend from your shelter after the long long years, a brave new old world awaits you.System: Nintendo Switch (Also on Steam (Windows & macOS)) A world inhabited with nasty and vile creatures. Explore the ruins of the past and discover technology from the hitech era.A world with no other human soul to be seen. Gain technological advantage against the hostile environment. Or go deeper and recover the ancient lost knowledge from the hidden tomb chambers of the old ones. Over 99% of everything can be broken for materials with the right equipment.Acquire materials with almost magic-like properties and use them to craft insanely powerful gear. Do that, and collect the sweet nectar of the old world: plastics, rubber, and metals. There is a reasonable number of different materials to gather. Explore the vast hand-crafted open world and build Outposts to establish your presence.Find Recipes to craft permanent items and upgrades. The world after the end is inhabited by nasty creatures.Find hidden treasures and solve puzzles long ago forgotten. Something vile has affected most of the wildlife and former human inhabitants of the island - turning them into aggressive beast-like creatures. Harvest their organs and provide them eternal rest. Or run away and come back when you're stronger. You will not be fighting just to maintain the status quo.Fight using various melee and ranged weapons. You won't be constantly looking for a tasty cockroach to fill your over-metabolic stomach while waiting for the unavoidable bliss that is death. You will get more powerful, and unlock permanent upgrades. The world is a dangerous place, and you may take a few steps back once in a while, but eventually you will thrive.YSMANTLE started as a rather simple prototype exploring if it’d be possible to make a fun game about breaking stuff, collecting the parts, and building something out of those parts. This thought was hugely inspired by the mining games such as Motherload and Steamworld Dig even though they are 2D platformers and take place in a completely different kind of environment. The scope of the game escalated quickly, but one of the core mechanics in DYSMANTLE is that - with the right tools - you can break more than 99% of the objects you encounter in the game world. (What’s the less than 1 percent then? Well, for obvious reasons we can’t allow the player to break stuff that they’d need to interact with in order to progress in the game.)īreaking stuff (aka. ruining everything) is just one aspect of the game though. The game is categorized as an open world action RPG, which means it also has the regular RPG elements such as fighting, leveling up, crafting better gear, and so forth. A few parts of the game structure and exploration were inspired by games like Zelda Breath of the Wild and Dark Souls. The game can be challenging if you go to an area you’re not supposed to be at, but we’re not targeting Dark Souls difficulty with this game. What’s more essential is making your progress feel great and meaningful. In addition to all that, we decided to throw in all sorts of auxiliary activities such as hunting, fishing, and farming to make sure the player has always something different to progress at. If you’re getting tired of beating the vile creatures (or maybe they are too hard to beat for you), you can plant a few seeds and go fishing which will also provide you experience and better gear (through the materials you get). This in turn will help you beat the monsters more easily. There are also different kinds of puzzles to be solved.
One of the recurring sights you see on the island is the ancient tombs of the old ones (ruins below the ruins of the modern world). Raiding those tombs will reward you with very exotic and powerful materials with magic-like properties.ĭYSMANTLE is built using the latest iteration of 10tons game technology. We had to make some extensive changes to the 3D engine that previously powered Tesla vs Lovecraft. DYSMANTLE is an open world game, which basically means we have to be able to stream one huge map based on where the player is at, is looking at, and is expected to go next.
