It's official: Mars Tactics is coming to Early Access in May 2026!

Will you lead the Capital army for the glory of the shareholders? Or fight for the working man as a Labor revolutionary?

Soon, the choice will be yours.

Project [Omen] Arena X Boost is OUT NOW!!

I've made a lot of small videogames at this point, this one is probably the sickest. For fans of mechs, gundams, virtua on, etc. 3D Mecha battle action up the wazoo

Playtest restarted last week. Things are going very well. Most players (and me too) are finally happy with the strategy layer design. Full speed ahead

Freeing imprisoned workers and escorting them off the battlefield

If your soldiers are captured, they'll end up at enemy labor camps. These are secret locations you can locate and liberate. Tough missions, but good rewards.

During the battle, as you liberate prisoners (green arrows in this screenshot) they become controllable soldiers.

Part 2 about undercover agents. They spawn in battle disguised as civilian workers.

Stealth is not a huge focus of this game, but this is just a little mechanic to further connect strategy layer actions with combat.

First look at Infiltration, a mechanic for both factions. Simulates the clandestine aspects of an insurgency and counter-insurgency.

Sneak in agents, perform ops, get various buffs to help during battle or in the strategy layer.

I want to get back to sharing small things more frequently.

Today's small thing: the tiny unit sprites on the world map match their battle uniforms.

Quick look at unit progression and what each skill does (Aim, Defense and Tactics). I might add a 4th skill (Leadership). Lmk if you have questions!
