Whalebox Studios has announced that a KickStarter initiative for Goliath, its "open world ARPG robot-crafting game". Goliath is looking to raise $50,000 to add new features to the core game that has been shown to the world prior to this point.
Goliath Features:
- Build A ‘Bot Factory: Learn how to create dozens of robotic Goliath suits from a variety of materials, including wood, stone, metal and more. Each Goliath can be customized and equipped with a variety of weapons – after you’ve learned how to craft them, of course.
- Survive A Savage Land: Gather materials to build the tools you need to survive, including healing salves, protective fortresses and more. As you explore the world, you’ll learn more complex recipes for more advanced tools and weaponry.
- Choose A Side: The world of Goliath is populated with several factions that vie for control of resources and territory. These factions include humans, the sentient robotic beings The Created, the demon-like Daemonari, and the elusive Forest Folk. Each faction can offer you different weapon and robot schematics, and you must choose which factions to align yourself with. Try to broker peace or rally your faction to accelerate the war!
- Procedurally Generate World: Explore a unique world with every game, thanks to a procedurally generated world.
- A Living World: Explore prairies, forests, swamps, tundras and more, all with a complete dynamic day/night cycle and weather. Weather and terrain affect your robots, so make sure you have the right machine for the job!
- Co-Op and Competitive Multiplayer: Play through Goliath’s campaign together with a friend, or go head-to-head in arena PvP combat! In co-op mode, players drop into the host player's version of the world. They can work together on the main quest, or tackle the game's procedurally generated side quests. Since every player's game world is different, players will encounter new quests that don't exist in their version of the game every time they join another player's world. Any rewards earned transfer back to their version of the game!
