Vertex Guard: Early Alpha
The game has 35 unique playbook combinations, that all show a different facet of what it means to not only have the power to stop world ending monsters, but what it's like to be someone in contrast with that.   All of these changes and more are coming!  I've been working on this game for over eight months though, and its there enough for you to look it over, get a feel for the game, and even play it with a little bit of elbow grease! Supporting the game now guarantees access to all future updates as I work to improve and make the game better.   Featuring generational play as your Guardians grow and evolve with each HORROR they kill, and the pilots who take up these mantles of legacy in a desperate hope for another tomorrow; you'll argue for better policies to ensure the long term safety of the individuals you fight to protect, and get behind the controls of larger than life machines to show them it's all gonna be okay.
