12 itemsAbout the Game
Landsword is a top-down mecha shooter with a heavy emphasis on destruction and gameplay that combines elements from classic shoot 'em ups with contemporary action-stealth games while retaining an arcade feeling.
Combat
Engagements are fast-paced and action-packed, balancing aggressive shooting with strategic dodging of enemy fire. Enemies all have distinct attack patterns and behaviors, prompting players to consider how to best approach and destroy each threat.
Terrain destruction
Players are free to revel in large-scale collateral damage as they carve a path through each level. Every stage has fully destructible environments, including vehicles, props, and structures that persist throughout a mission. What begins as a dense urban battlefield may become a smoldering ruin by the mission’s end.
Customization
Equip and upgrade your maneuver crawler with a wide variety of different parts and weapons before each mission. Different loadouts compliment different missions and environments, changing the style of combat and movement.
