Evaluation

Multibombers launched into Early Access on September 22, 2018. In the weeks that followed, Glorified Studios posted a flurry of updates — bug fixes, a Halloween-themed patch, and optimization work — along with a developer note on October 29, 2018 announcing plans to switch the game to a paid model at $4.99, add dedicated servers, and introduce bots. The store page also lists several features as "planned for the future," including a cosmetics and inventory system, Patreon perks, and a singleplayer mode with a tutorial. However, October 29, 2018 was the last communication ever recorded from the developer. None of the promised features appear to have shipped, and the game is no longer available for purchase on Steam. All of this points to development having quietly stopped years ago, with the game left in an unfinished Early Access state and the original roadmap never fulfilled. Someone interested in this game should be aware that it appears to have been abandoned, with all outstanding promises undelivered and no communication from the studio since late 2018.

About this game

A classic game, reborn.

Multibombers is a multiplayer strategy game by Pig’s Indie Games based upon the classic Bomberman series of games. Players compete based upon a first-person field of view to be the last man standing by using bombs to destroy their competition.

Power-ups scattered around the arena encourage players to move tactically throughout each match - having to decide between making a run to the center where more power-ups are located or heading straight for enemy players - a high risk, high reward decision.

Multiplayer is available for both LAN and online play, so that there is always a way for you to play with your buddies.

In the future, Multibombers will have a cosmetic system and client-side map customization, allowing for you to personalize your own experience in any way you see fit. Steam achievements will also be added to provide extra incentive to play.

What do we have included?

A fledged out powerup system, with an algorithm of luck, bringing more and better powerups closer to the center.
Multiplayer available for you to play online across the world, or locally with your buddies.
Satisfy all your destructive needs with our explosive system.
A bunch of achievements and stat-tracking to keep the game competitive, whilst still being fun.

What are we planning to add in the future?

We are soon going to be adding an inventory system with cosmetics.
Special perks for our Patrons, such as a golden nametag and tags in chat, as well as special cosmetics.
A singleplayer mode, featuring a dynamic tutorial.
