Hey, storm chasers! I’ve been working hard to add new features and refine what’s already in place. Let’s dive into the updates!
Features
Multiplayer
Play with your friends or meet new ones! You'll be able to see other chasers' real-time locations on the map in-game, as well as ride along with them if you wish.
Map & Radar System
In each vehicle, you'll have a laptop with access to real-time radar data such as reflectivity, velocity, correlation coefficient (will be added after EA), and other weather warnings.
Character Customization (WIP)
You'll be able to customize your appearance to make a unique character. (Work in progress, not yet implemented)
Vehicle Customization
Use money earned from data collection to upgrade your chase vehicle with cool attachments.
Data Probes & Cameras
Take pictures of weather events or place your data probe in the path of a tornado to collect vital data and earn money in-game.
Drones (WIP)
The sky is the limit! Use drones to get a bird's eye view of the storm and collect data from a safe distance. (Work in progress, not yet implemented)
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a release date yet?
Currently no. As the primary developer of this game, I am currently a student in college and am developing in my available free time.
How realistic will the game be?
While realism is an end-goal, I am currently prioritizing the "fun" over realism for release.
What intercept vehicles will there be?
I want to include various versions of the Dominator/TIV and other intercept vehicles. Currently, for EA, I am planning to have the TIV2 along with another custom intercept vehicle.
What will be the minimum requirements to run the game?
This question will be answered once alpha testing has finished.
