Hear that rumbling, coming from the horizon? The Ogre approaches:
Ogre, the classic game of future tank warfare, will come to PC via Steam next year in a hex/turn based adaptation by experienced Steam developer and publisher Auroch Digital. Ogre raised nearly a million dollars on Kickstarter for its giant Designer’s Edition, and one of the stretch-goal promises was “We will do a computer game.” Here it comes. Work on the project will begin immediately, and the game should be released in late 2017.
Not a real-time game, then. But, you know? It might work out, at that. If it was a RTS I’d be spending most of the game firing blindly at everything at once and then flipping my Ogre into a ditch. Whether the game would let me do that, or not.
Fingers crossed! Turn based is definitely the way to go. I still hold out hope for a proper modern Car Wars game. *sigh*
I really want a new Interstate ’76.
I’m glad that this is coming. I hate that it’s PC only.
I’m going to have to get a Steam account, aren’t I?
It is… your destiny.
