Auto Fire

Auto Fire is a transformation of the great auto combat games of the 1980’s:  Car Wars, Autoduel, and Roadwar 2000.  It adds the dynamic world-building, player advancement and careful combat planning of Roguelikes to the rough, outlaw environments of the Mad Max series and classic western films.  Build out your car, dispense vehicular justice, haul some cargo, and build a name for yourself in a world where the only way to thrive is to drive.

Only pay if you want to support the effort...  This is a WORK IN PROGRESS build!  There are a ton of features not yet implemented, but please  try it out free of charge to get a sense of what the game will be like.

The current platforms are 64-bit and 32-bit Windows only (for now).  We totally recommend a non-mobile video card for performance.

Basic Features:

• Overworld allows player to move between cities and outposts, and between sectors.
• Combat driving in either the outposts or ruined cities.             
• Each location has a generated faction controlling it and a boss to go with it.
• Basic quest system will direct you to take out the boss to clear the area.
• Dynamic camera and VFX based on speed.
• The faster you travel, the more turns you get.
• Experiment with grip and skids...  Get comfortable with drifting.
• Bring loot back to garages for repairs or equipment installation.

Soon to come:

• Improved progression arc.  No real balance as of yet.
• More weapons, equipment and enemies.
• Special maneuvers like bootleggers and charge rams.
• Encounters on the overworld map.
• Improved quest system with cargo runs and deeper objectives.
• Citadels as a destination for weapon and vehicle stores, cargo missions, arena duels, and a bar for rumors.
• Fame and skill progression tracking, with media coverage of select combats.
• Target painting, sustained fire, and other ways to increase or decrease the chances of.
