Rustbucket Rumble

Reactor Zero’s game Rustbucket Rumble is probably best described as a 2D platform shooter MMO. Players are given the option of selecting from one of six diverse robot classes to battle their enemies with in team-based combat. The robot classes of Rustbucket Rumble include Maverick, Valentina, Bjorn, Kasumi, Daisy, and Clancy who fulfill different roles in their team, including in no particular order the tank, burst damage dealer, sniper, healer/suppressor, an assassin, and sustained damage dealer. As enemies fall, they leave behind scraps which can be used to build “El Gigante Robo Jr.”, which will decimate the enemy team’s base once it is completely built.

Features:

Team-focused Matches: Matches in Rustbucket Rumble are very team focused and cooperation is required if a team wants to leave victorious.

Unique Class Skills: Each of the robot classes in Rustbucket Rumble has a rather unique skill that it can use. For example, Daisy can create turrets, Bjorn can toss any scraps he has picked up to his allies, and Valentina can use a grabber claw to pull scraps to her so she can avoid potentially dangerous combat situations.

Free-to-play and Retail Versions: Rustbucket Rumble is planned to release with both free-to-play and retail versions of the game. Players who opt for the free-to-play version will only be able to use one of the robot classes in the game, while those who purchase the game will have access to all robot classes in the game.

Call of Champions

Breaking into the mobile MOBA genre is Call of Champions, developed by Spacetime Studios who has partnered with professional MOBA players in order to deliver an even better MOBA experience to the mobile MOBA fan-base. Call of Champions has a plethora of champions for the player to choose from and plans to develop even more exciting champions. Spacetime Studios is even letting players choose their favorite champions in the game that they would like the game to launch with! Call of Champions promises to stay a mobile MOBA by offering players short five-minute matches, but it will also include tournament structures and social features for players to integrate with each other.

Features:

Champion Variety: Call of Champions features the standard MOBA player classes of Tank, Mage, Fighter, Assasin and Support, but each of these champion classes feature champions of eight different elements: Shadow, Air, Tech, Earth, Nature, Ice, Fire, and Light.

Pro Player Aided Development The fact that Call of Champions has partnered with professional League of Legends players Snoopeh, Voyboy, and Phantomlord shows that they are truly considering the MOBA fan-base in their development.

Short Match Times Call of Champions’ short match times will be ideal for the mobile MOBA player who doesn’t have the normal half an hour to an hour’s worth of time to devote to a match and be tied to a desktop/laptop.
