The developers at Perhelion Interactive have put a lot of thought into their upcoming tactical RPG/space RTS, The Mandate, clearly true fans of the science fiction genre, television and film, and video games. Along with a range of screenshots, gamers can take a look at the mechanics and story that make up the game, and the ideas and influences that inspired it.
Despite significant delays and dropped features, Perihelion is scaling back their vision for The Mandate even further. Kickstarter backers have had enough.
Felix Wong writes: "The funniest comment on the Kickstarter page of The Mandate, a sci-fi RPG that raised a whopping $700K via Kickstarter back in 2013, was written by a guy who posted a Youtube link to the Pocket God update song. For those unfamiliar with this hilarious clip—provided it’s used in the right context—the lyrics go something like, “Update, update, update, update, where is the update, give us the update.”
GameDynamo - "The Ubisoft hate train continues. When the studio explained last month that the reason no female characters were included in the multiplayer for Assassin's Creed Unity was the result of budget constraints, it offered no solution. It merely made the excuse.
Indie studio Perhelion Interactive - developers behind the recently funded Kickstarter title The Mandate- has announced that it knows how to fix the problem."
Ubisoft decided not to bring playable women.It's their decision and their rules.I don't see why so much criticisms can come due to this?
I've Never Heard Of The Mandate But I Will Now Look Into It. Sounds Interesting Indeed. I Love The Picture As Well.
I'm living everything about this game, especially the mechanics and art. It's fantastic.
