PAINT WARS

by BrainDead Studios

Description

In a world full of colour, a corruption spread, turning everything monochromatic and evil. The war started, with all colour beings trying to restore the colours on the world and with them, the peace. The destiny of those in despair is in your hands.

Paint Wars is an isometric single player RTS game featuring a campaign with playable units, buildable structures and manageable resources where the player will have to fight against waves of enemies trying to destroy his base. The game is located in a paint themed world where resources, units and buildings will be related to paint.

DISCLAIMER: This is version v1.0, but we intend to do more in the future!

Current version: v1.0

barracks (built with wood): to create warriors, rangers and knights
titanium extractor (built with metal scrap): to get titanium, used in upgrades/research
