Official Description (Ad Blurb)

Armed to the Gears combines strategy and territory domination into a top-down shooter with mechs, cyborgs and complete destruction.

In a dystopian future where a totalitarian regime, under the flag of the Ministry, dominated the whole world and enslaved billions of people, an underground resistance fights for freedom.

You are regarded their most skilled engineer, who's able to hack into the Ministry's Infantry Class robots and control their weapons, turning these war machines against their makers.

Your Mission:
Capture every Neutrium Reactor by reaching proximity;
Secure the reactor's perimeter to avoid enemy takeover;
Supress the enemy's presence in the area.

Despite the current Early Access status, Armed to the Gears already has a full-featured gameplay:

. Total of 4 playable maps, being one tutorial and 3 campaign maps with increasing difficulty and complexity. These are the Training fields, Lower Downtown, Desert Base and Ammo Factory. 5 new maps are planned to be added during the next few months: Maincity Center, Neutrium Silos, No Man’s Land, Across the Line and Lower Orbit. Details on these updates can be found on the Early Access information.

. Navigate your war robot around the maps to destroy enemies and capture reactors. Features a breakable armor, jet thrusters, primary weapons and secondary launchers;

. Captured reactors will grant Energy points, used to teleport turrets, call air support into the battle field and repair your robot, enabling a temporary protection for a base or offensive weapons to decimate the enemy's stronghold.

. The game already contains 11 deployment options - 6 turret types, landmines, barricades, repair station, carpet bombing and neutrium ballistic missile. Upgrade turrets and generators to maximize the defensive capacity of your bases;

. Multiple weapon types, including machine guns, lasers, plasma and electron cannons, grenades and missile launchers;

. Defeat the enemy’s army of cyborgs and mutants, war drones, robotic infantry units, giant mechs, with 7 different types ready for action and 5 more to come;

. Credits collected in battle can later be used in the main base’s Workshop to buy parts, ammo and fuel for your robot;

. Complete Main Menu where you can chose the game mode, access the workshop, web link, settings and save / exit;

. The General Settings has some basic options for main audio volume, graphics quality and resolution, background music, gameplay configuration and developer credits implemented.
