ExoSuits

ExoSuits is a multiplayer action first-person shooter game created by Ryan Nurse and Animatron Studios, currently in the early stages of development. In ExoSuits, players utilize one of various Iron Man-style powered exoskeletons, and do battle with other players in a range of randomly-generated environments. The game uses a unique Minecraft-style aesthetic, placing a heavy focus on customization, the use of alternate play styles, and emergent gameplay.

Like many other Animatron projects, ExoSuits has no planned release date. However, Nurse has been working on a pre-alpha build of the game since March 2014, using the Unity Engine.

Gameplay
ExoSuits takes place in the near future, where the world's battles are fought by soldiers and mercenaries wearing the titular ExoSuits, a range of high-tech powered exoskeletons. There are a range of ExoSuits that can be equipped, each with various statistics such as speed, strength, weight, and resistance to cold, heat, drag, and falling.

ExoSuits can in turn be equipped with between two and six weapons or items. Like ExoSuits, these have their own stats, such as range, damage, and cooldown time. Each weapon and item can only be equipped to a specific place on the body: there are two arm slots, two hand slots, a head slot, a back slot, and a legs slot. In addition, each ExoSuit can only equip a certain number of weapons/items. Weapons deal damage directly to opponents, ranging from pistols and shotguns to rocket hammers and electrified boomerangs. Items either help the user or hinder their opponents, such as trapping them in a net, spilling oil that can be ignited, or even turning the user invisible for a brief period.

The game features a range of environments, including Lava Cave, Cryo Lab, and Space Station. Unlike traditional FPS games, maps in each environment are randomly generated every time a match is played, providing near-endless replayability. Each environment contains a number of hazards, destructible objects, and unique elements; for example, "Lava Cave" contains pools of lava that can damage ExoSuits, flammable rope bridges, and rock bridges that will crumble if a heavy ExoSuit steps on them.

So far, only two game modes are known: Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch. In Deathmatch, players compete against each other to rack up the most kills within a certain amount of time. Team Deathmatch is similar, except that players compete together in two teams. The game is currently planned to support up to 16 players per game.
