GDC 2018: Gunhead at the Indie Megabooth
The Toronto based developer Alientrap Games are at the GDC Indie Megabooth showing off their game, Gunhead. The sequel title to Cryptark, this fast paced, action, FPS shooter puts the player in a pirate mech with a gun for a head.
The core game loop features procedurally generated alien spaceships that the player must board and neutralise. Every ship will bring different challenges and enemies to defeat. Player will need to choose from the 50+ weapons and items to customise their loadout and overcome the ships defence systems.
Fans of Cryptark will be glad to know that the events of Gunhead take place immediately after the first game and that Gunhead’s crew are now on the run and need to explore and gather supplies in order to survive the dangers that the universe harbours.
Gunhead will be available sometime this year on Steam and there is talk from the developer that there may be a PlayStation 4 or Xbox One release at a later date.
