![]() ![]() It’s not just that it’s an impressive game made by one teenager. It’s ImpressiveĪnd that’s part of why this is so fascinating. There’s a good chance he’s better at marketing games than many other developers are, too. He even has a dedicated audience of fans on platforms like Mobcrush – We’ve streamed the game and gotten some of his fans who have shown up, and seen people excited when he pops into an unrelated stream. Lucas Wilde has all throughout development interacted with players of the beta version of the game on Twitter, regularly crowdsourcing information on desired features, and getting feedback from the crowd on how changes to builds are performing. The other thing that’s fascinating about Bullet Force is the way that social media and streaming plays a role in the game’s development. While programming helps, and any game development is going to impart some understanding of coding, the barrier to entry is not “you need to know how to code.” This game should be inspirational, that anyone can make a promising and fun game, no matter who they are. ![]() We’ve talked to one of the developers at Naquatic who said that he didn’t know how to program when he first started making games in Unity. Especially considering that Unity is free to try out, and is accessible to those who don’t know programming. In fact, the scale has shifted so much that as we see, anyone with enough will to do so can make the online first-person shooter of their dreams. Engines like Unity allow developers to create titles that otherwise would have taken large teams months if not years to create and to do so with less manpower and less work. What this all shows is that game development has come such a long way. It might not win any awards, but the developer won a scholarship to attend Apple’s World Wide Developer Conference in 2016. ![]() The visuals have dramatically improved, and the game feels better with each update. We’ve enjoyed playing it in early builds as it’s come along. It knows what it’s doing and is trying to be a fun game for people who want a fun, standard first-person shooter on mobile. The game is fun, if not a bit standard, but that’s fine. And this all takes place in 20-person matches. Multiplayer is the core game mode here, with team deathmatch, point-control conquest, and gun game modes available. It tackles a lot of the genre standards, with maps that take place outside, with scenarios like offices and prisons that come into play as well. Feel Old Yet?īullet Force is impressive in large part because it’s made in Unity by a teenager, but the game itself is pretty solid. Oh, and this game was made by an 18-year-old who just graduated from high school named Lucas Wilde. This is a modern warfare first-person shooter, on mobile, with full-fledged online play against other players. Heck, the idea of playing a full-fledged first-person shooter with online play on the go was only coming to fruition through the PSP and Nintendo DS, with limited titles available that could do that.įlash forward a decade later, and we have games like Bullet Force. Multiplayer on the previous generation of consoles was not a guarantee because of the difficulty of net code. If you want to know how far along game development has come in the past decade or so, Bullet Force is proof. In 2006, Call of Duty was still a World War II shooter and hadn’t dramatically altered the FPS landscape by going to modern combat.
