Mech Encounter

Mech Encounter is an action mech combat game inspired by Mechwarrior.

This is an EARLY ALPHA version of Mech Encounter.
Everything you see is subject to change. I really appreciate feedback in all forms!

In this limited early alpha version you can:
- Fight 1v1 (or up to 2v2 with an experimental setting) against enemy mechs or mech variants of your own design!

- Design equipment and weapon loadouts and tweak performance by modifying engine, structure and armor types on the Orion chassis (more chassis coming later)

HOW TO PLAY

On the main menu, click 'instant action', assign a mech type to yourself and your opponent, and press play.

To win, destroy either your opponent's legs, center torso, or cockpit.

A more in-depth tutorial will be added to this page soon.

THE MECHBAY

To learn how to customize mech variants in the mechbay, click 'mechbay' on the main menu and press the 'help' button in the bottom left.

You may use these customized mech variants in the game, assigning it to yourself or your opponent.

A more in-depth tutorial will be added to this page soon.
