An initial look into Leptons VR, the first game on the Isotopic Store
Leptons VR, a VR fantasy sandbox multiplayer PVP game, featuring melee, ranged, and magic combat in a fast-paced strategic battle scenario. In Leptons VR, players can fully customize their character and weapons with combinations of NFT gear and skins. Skills and abilities in Leptons VR are also NFTs, and all items are balanced to keep the gameplay skill based.
Leptons will be the very first official Isotopic game to be published on the store.
So what is Leptons really about? What can you expect from our first game?
Gamemodes
Leptons will primarily feature multiplayer Player versus Player battles in the forms of:
- Team Deathmatch
- Free-for-all
In Team Deathmatch, the players will be split into two teams. Each team will have to gather kills on the players of the other team, in order to gain score. Players will be able to use their weapons and abilities to push the fight on the enemy team, and defend their own.
In Free-for-all games though, the fight is different. Players will have to constantly be on guard of attacks from all sides, as enemies will spawn all around the map, and everyone will be on their own.
Game Mechanics
Players will be able to use a variety of base methods to attack each other, and strategic combinations and combos of those will allow for unique combat styles.
Melee Combat
The primary weapons that players can carry include medieval-style melee weapons that include but are not limited to:
- Axes
- Swords
- Maces
- Daggers
- Shields
These weapons will be usable in close-range combat, by directly approaching enemies and swinging at them.
Ranged Combat
Another kind of weapon that can be primarily used are medieval ranged weapons.
These weapons will include:
- Bow
- Crossbow
- Spears (can also be used in melee combat)
Although these theoretically have a large potential against players with melee weapons, they will be developed in a way as to not offer an unfair advantage to their users. Instead, players will be able to quickly and easily switch between melee and ranged weapons as they are playing.
It is also important to note that one important mechanic in game will be the ability to throw weapons, which means all melee weapons will be capable of inflicting damage at long range when thrown.
Magic Combat
Currently in development, the most unique mechanics in game will come from using magic abilities. These will offer an extraordinary take on multiplayer combat, which will make the whole gaming experience much more… Chaotic!
Capable of dealing massive damage, but each with its own negatives, spells will be the primary source of the learning curve in game.
Telekinesis is the first ability to arrive to Leptons, but many more will follow. Our development team is working hard on creating more unique mechanics that will make Leptons a first-of-a-kind VR Multiplayer experience.
