EmberVein Pre Alpha

What is EmberVein? 

EmberVein is a third person action game. Each game, you will play as an experiment infused with a powerful serum. Survive against waves of enemies for as long as possible and level up your experiments to gain new and exciting powers to last even longer. 

What is the gameplay like? 

Each game you will select from a cast of unique experiments with different play styles and roles. Maybe you favour playing up close and personal or you like to attack from a distance! Our Experiments loosely follow damage, tank, and support roles. Every Experiment has a unique kit of abilities at their disposal. As Experiments level up you will unlock mutations. These mutations allow you to alter your experiment’s attacks and abilities to better fit your play style. Do you love playing as the support experiment, but wish you could deal more damage? Create a strain of mutations that allows you to hit the enemies harder and with more damage! You and up to 3 other players will take on the Cxar security forces hired by EmberX; the company that created you. Survive as long as possible as you and your friends take on a myriad of different enemy types! You will face everything from basic riflemen to heavily armored veterans yielding flamethrowers. Defeat enemies, survive waves, and complete milestones and challenges to gain experience and level up your Experiments! Once all players are dead, it’s game over and hopefully you earned a place on the leaderboards. If you didn’t, change some things up and try again! Your goal is simple: survive as long as possible, unlock new playstyles as you level up, and prove you’re the best at punishing your captors! 

What is the story of the game?

EmberVein takes place in an alternate reality of our own world, in a Victorian Sci-Fi setting. Our story starts with a biotech company called EmberX. EmberX has built a massive corporate empire by engineering medicines and serums for several militaries around the world. In an attempt to complete a serum that could help create “super soldiers” EmberX misled several people, some in desperate life situations, to come to their facility to be test subjects for the new serum. As the trials began to change the subjects, EmberX decided to hold them against their will. However, with some help from someone on the inside they were able to break out of the facility. Now they must survive and fight against a security force, Cxar, who was paid off by EmberX to retrieve them. How long can they hold out?
