  • Story/Description:
    Quote:

    At Black Annex, we're in the business of corporate espionage and sabotage - and business is good. Your role here will put you in charge of a number of agents with skill-sets catered from aggressive weapon use to stealth and deception - beyond this, you'll be customizing their ability and weapon load-outs as you see fit to handle the task at hand. Choose any agent to act as your PERSONA at Black Annex and manage the business side of things before taking direct control of a squad and deploying to the mission location.

    An isometric action-fest with a twist of deception and espionage!
    A huge array of missions spanning multiple corporate locations!
    Collect enemy agents during missions to add to your team!
    Discover hidden, unique agents by completing optional tasks!
    Explore "Black Annex" with your persona agent and keep business running smoothly!
    Upgrade weapon and deception abilities over time to further breach target corporations!
    "Rebuild" completed missions indefinitely until you've collected all the agents and assets!
    The missions you'll be deployed to can be carried out in any number of ways, from a silent and stealthy approach to an all-guns-blazing slaughter-fest, or even harness your technical skills to use enemy security and resources against them. Our clients will assign you the problems, it's your job to build the best solution.

    Each mission deployment, every assigned agent, and all of their skills constitute costs to the company, so make sure Black Annex has the funds available to deploy to the job site, if your agents are killed you'll be out of pocket the expenses. We're in this for profit, so consider the costs before deploying. Bring back valuable documents, technology, and even enemy agents to re-deploy in future missions and keep turnover nice and healthy.

I'm astounded nobody is talking about this yet Shocked A Syndicate-esque action game (with some smattering of RPG characteristics) that is being developed in QBASIC .. or, to be more accurate, QB64. It's looking incredible and I can't wait to see more Very Happy

The only thing that turns me off is the look of the game. I'm getting tired of the retro pixel graphic craze to be honest. To me, they all look the same now and I just don't feel like playing them anymore. To me, games like this, Teleglitch, and a few others would be amazing with anything but that old-school look

I agree, the maps / environment is just too uninteresting, i wouldnt mind it if it was just one level... Other than that it seems great Smile
