Traction Edge is a story driven, turn based strategy game set in a Steampunk Victorian England. Gameplay is similar to the Gollop Brothers UFO or Lasersquad series in that you have "Action Points" to spend during your turn. The game also borrows heavily from roguelikes in both look and feel.
Traction Edge is currently under development and is considered alpha software. It is playable but limited. v0.2 was released for the Annual Roguelike Release Party 2011. It is distributed as source only and requires SFML 1.6 (not 2.0) and cmake to build.
Current Features:Planned Features:
- Turn based gameplay
- 2-4 member squad teams
- Destructable terrain
- Victorian Steampunk setting
- SFML based, rescalable on the fly, 16x16 graphical tiles.
- 16-20 static levels with full story arc
- Random content, procedural maps
- Procedural tech tree
- Civilians
- Z-levels
