Heavy Gear Assault's Gear Bay Contains Yellow Gear


If you've been paying attention to the latest robot-combat news then you will have noted that the Heavy Gear franchise is being reworked via a Kickstarter. Stompy Bot Productions promises both F2P arena combat and - via popular demand - some episodic single-player. They're showing off the latest part of their project in a new trailer, which illustrates the robots being fitted out in the "Gear Bay", and the player boarding a nice big yellow robot before battle.

Despite these flourishes, the Kickstarter isn't doing particularly well right now, and I would be surprised if it made the $800k finishing line. Although it does have twenty days to go. Quite what will happen if it fails to get funding remains to be seen.
