M.A.V. has just hit Kickstarter and Greelight in what looks set to be another interesting addition to the world of mech gaming. Of course there are already a few great mech games out there such as Hawken and Mech Warrior which were developed by huge teams, but M.A.V. is the work of just one man and while there is still a little work to be done, there’s certainly room in the market for one more mech game.
M.A.V. is a 3rd person Mech action game focused on teamwork and tuning your M.A.V. to suit your personal play style. Players take the controls of their personal Modular Assault Vehicle (M.A.V.) and battle it out, fighting a war for freedom throughout several game modes, including the free-for-all Arena mode, the team based Siege Mode, and the much anticipated Campaign Mode.
The campaign mode is the heart of what M.A.V. is about. A persistent battle, with multiple factions fighting it out for complete control. In this mode, everything is on the line and everything can affect the outcome. World events will dramatically change the way the battle plays out. Whether it be that you choose to fight in the daylight, or try to deploy covertly under the darkness of night, or maybe a storm comes in affecting the visibility of the map. Every game will play out differently, every battle will have a story, and every faction will have a struggle to the top.
In M.A.V., there will be thousands of parts to pick from, each with its own stats and appearance. There will be a weapon for every strategy, a cockpit for every style, and an armour plate that always fits just right. And we all know that gamers love to put their personal touch on things, so its always great to see extensive customisation options. There are also lots of cosmetic changes you can make to your M.A.V., from the paint colour of each part, to the camo patterns and colours that the parts have.
Head on over to Kickstarter and Greenlight to show your support.
