The Riftbreaker News

Hello!

It is time for the last trade show of the year for EXOR Studios! This time we are going to Poznań Game Arena, the biggest game show in Poland. Every year, it attracts thousands of visitors, whose passion is gaming. Among hundreds of other games, they will also get the chance to try out The Riftbreaker!



We are going to have a large booth in the 5A hall. It will feature two game stations, where you will be able to take Mr. Riggs for a test drive on Galatea 37. After you’re done playing, you can spin the wheel of fortune for a chance to win some EXOR Studios merch. You will also have the chance to take a picture with a 2.5m tall statue of Mr. Riggs. Oh, and the whole EXOR team is going to be there, too! We’re going to wear our unified EXOR hoodies, so we will be easy to spot. Come and say hi if you find us!



An awards show is hosted during PGA, recognizing the best games of the show. We’re happy to announce that The Riftbreaker has been qualified for awards in two categories - Best Indie Game and Best Game Video (for the teaser trailer). Keep your fingers crossed Saturday evening!

If you can’t visit us in Poznań, join our Discord server, where we will post things from behind the scenes all weekend long. www.discord.gg/exorstudios

Hello!

If you are a fan of explosions like we are, you've come to the right place! One of our newest additions to the Riftbreaker arsenal is slow, expansive, and costs a lot of ammo to use... But it's so fun! World, meet the portable Nuclear Cannon!



The Nuclear Cannon can be equipped by Mr. Riggs just like any other weapon. It fires a single, low-powered nuclear missile that explodes on contact with any solid matter. The explosion radius is quite big for a handheld weapon and the shockwave can be felt hundreds of meters away. Due to developments in nuclear power technology, it does not produce any nuclear waste or fallout. You can use it without much consequence.



The obvious drawback of this weapon is the fire rate. It will not save you when your base is being attacked by thousands of enemies at a time. While it might take down some part of the group, more will come and immediately replace their fallen brethren, leaving you defenseless. Always have an alternative weapon on hand! Remember to also stockpile on ammunition, you're going to need a lot of it.

Do you think this kind of weapon is a bit too much? Or perhaps we should add even more powerful and expensive items to the game? Let us know here and on www.discord.gg/exorstudios

Hi there!

At this point, you know EXOR Studios pretty well. You might have even played some of our previous games (and if you haven't, check them out! We have free demos available). One of the common things among them all is a variety of weapons. Today we will take a look at a weapon some of us are particularly fond of - the Railgun.

This weapon is very similar to the Railgun Tower. In fact, it is a little less powerful, but more portable version of that building. The Railgun is not available to you from the start - you have to download the blueprints and craft it yourself, but the effects are great!



The beam of energy fired from the railgun pierces through everything in its range, dealing massive amounts of damage even to the toughest enemies. In order to do that, it consumes power cells, which are manufactured in the Riftbreaker's Armory. Using the Railgun is quite tricky, as you need to line up the enemies to take down as many of them in one shot, but when you do, it is glorious.

The rate of fire on this gun is very slow, so it is best to use it in conjunction with a weapon that is less powerful, but less demanding when it comes to operations. The railgun is not the best at dealing with hordes of smaller enemies, either, because of the narrow beam. We're sure you'll find the ways to use it effectively, though!



What other kinds of weapons would you like us to implement in the game? Both melee weapons and firearms are fair game! Tell us in the comments down below or on our Discord server - www.discord.gg/exorstudios

See you soon!
