14 DAY TRIAL // Indie studio Woo Games has just announced that its top-down multiplayer space shooter game for Android platform, “ErnCon” has just gone gold.
After only one month of open beta, Woo Games releases this “epic multiplayer combat” game, which is aimed at Battlefield fans.
Although the testing period might sound a bit short for some, devs have been able to introduce several gameplay and interface improvements, new content, lag-free servers with improved stability.
The game is free to play, but players will have to pay real money in order to unlock new missions and weapons.
However, to celebrate the launch, the developers are kind enough to give away $1 in ErnCoins, to all those who download the game within the next two weeks.
There’s more to it, as Woo Games confirmed that starting on April 4, new ErnCon players will get $0.50 in ErnCoins with every install.
At launch, the game will feature 5 playable multiplayer missions, 4 new weapons, 6 new “Elite” fighters and robots for expert players. For other features like custom-colored fighters and robots, players will need to make in-app purchases via Google Play.
Other highlights of the game include: Achievements, One-player Survival Mode, Survival Mode leaderboards and more.
It is also worth mentioning that while the initial mission lengths was 10 minutes, Woo Games decided to reduce them to 4 minutes in the latest build, but future mission lengths will be in the 3-5 minute range.
“ErnCon” is now available as a free download via Google Play store and it should be available for all devices running Android 2.2 and up.
“Unleashing beta testers on the production environment uncovered numerous issues that internal QA would never have found - allowing a small developer like me to deliver a polished multiplayer shooter on Android. Furthermore, carefully listening to everyone’s feedback made ErnCon into a much better game - an indie shooter the entire community can be proud of,” said Ernest Woo, founder and CEO, Woo Games.
