@BigMaraIppo He might need to make a deal with DuPont to be able to use their Kevlar trademark in such a manner. But I personally prefer the name he's got rn.
After having had a go at the playtest, I can happily affirm that you once again have come up with some seriously good shit. Not that there was any doubt. Mechanics are tight, art style is clean, and the writing is bloody hilarious. Also, you should put your name in the title, just to make a Tom Clancy joke.
I feel like the seal over the doors should look more like a magical seal - even if all that was added was a pentagram over the planks that disappears after a second.
Love the rewind mechanic (assuming that is staying in, and isn’t just to make it easier to demo). Also love the bit of them chatting on the tube, I miss the tube
bright is a low-magic setting, and the way theyve executed that is making the fantasy elements absolutely never come up in any meaningful way. tactical breach wizards dares to be silly and creative with who gets magic and how
Hey Tom, first of all, the game looks amazing, I can't wait to play it! Second of all, I just wanted to tell you that years ago I started game development on your gamemaker noxp tutorials, and recently I have landed a design job at a game studio. I am super inspired by your work, and thank you for starting me down the path.
It's looking awesome! It's been on my wishlist for quite some time, I hope I can get in the beta. I love all your games and i'm sure i'm going to love this one too, keep up the good work :)
Duuuude I commented on your video 2 years ago about the possible ideas for units (mine was firefighter pyromancer) it's great to see all the improvement you've made, keep it up!
I've never played a game of this genre, and I was skeptical until I saw this video. The rewind feature seems to be a really good way to try things out, making it seem more accessible to me as someone who has never played e.g. Invisible Inc I'm really excited to play it!
I searched for this game like a year ago cause I saw a video at that time and I didn't found it bc I searched in Liked and fav videos... Today I was clearing the channels that I follow and found this channel and the game. I signed for the beta and im happy now
Ever since I watched the first video on this game, I have been interested. I wish you best, and hope this game lives up to not just your expectations, but ours too.
Having played the previous beta I'm super glad they've been waiting to release more. I honestly enjoyed the beta though I felt like it was almost a bit too grounded and not magical (as in that the magic just felt like reskinned guns) but the little hints about the worldbuilding and dialog are crazy exciting and the combos being shown off here (as well as the ability to seal the reinforcement doors) are all very encouraging. Take your time with this one Tom! Can feel the makings of a classic!
I can understand the reason behind the change of Jen’s character design and backstory, but i really hope that the old design, or at least the witch hat with the sillitoe tartan is available as a skin
The screenshake on that lightning effect is unpleasant; it's so wide and slow that my eyes lose their tracking on the scene. Tight and fast would be better imo Definitely looks like a cool game! As a fan of Invisible Inc and Into the Breach, I'm going to keep an eye on this!
See earlier dev videos. There was at least one boss-level treat - an enemy Traffic Mage who can summon three lanes of ghost cars and had a very big healthbar.
looking pretty polished already! Any chance this is coming to Switch? I re-bought invisible inc for it, it's such a great way to play this kind of small-scale tactics game...
So I loved the preview. Any chance this will come to the Switch? *(unlike the previous game this could fairly easy be ported from a control scheme point of veiw.)
5:35 I suposse by that empty slot at the left that there will be more characters, am I right? Any hints on what could an hypotethical 3rd class would be?
When Tom Francis makes a game, you know someone is going out the window. Someone is always going out the window.
Dude now that I think about it, it's true.
On Steam this game is listed with Gunpoint and Heat Signature as the 'Defenestration Trilogy'; referencing that very fact.
The 'Defenestration Trilogy' absolutely deserves to be the primary way these games are referred to.
if it wasn't for floating point, I'd definitely agree xD
@@Tavor57 Just wait for the prequel where we find out the reason the Point is in free fall to begin with :D
"He is a Navy S.E.E.R."
Welp, I'm sold.
"Wizards in kevlar" is a pretty rad ragline
ngl, that phrase straight up sold me
Also "casters in kevlar" if you want to go for the rhyme

I whole-heartedly concur
Too excited for this next entry in the Defenestration Saga
I feel like the seal over the doors should look more like a magical seal - even if all that was added was a pentagram over the planks that disappears after a second.
I swear Tom Francis is one of the best indie developers gaming has been graced with
"Zan's in a bit of trouble" seems to be coming up a lot over the course of this video...
Love the rewind mechanic (assuming that is staying in, and isn’t just to make it easier to demo). Also love the bit of them chatting on the tube, I miss the tube
He said early on that the rewind mechanic would be a feature, because it was something he wished he could do in some similar tactics games.
Just now realizing you've kinda made "what if the Netflix movie Bright, but it's a game and also GOOD."

I feel very excited for this! "Tactical Breach Wizards" sounds like the perfect name for a Shadowrun team.
It's looking awesome! It's been on my wishlist for quite some time, I hope I can get in the beta.
I love all your games and i'm sure i'm going to love this one too, keep up the good work :)
So stoked for this and have been ever since you first mentioned the concept!
Duuuude I commented on your video 2 years ago about the possible ideas for units (mine was firefighter pyromancer) it's great to see all the improvement you've made, keep it up!
So cool, Tom!
Awesome to see this game really coming together.
Great choices and tactics in there. Nice! :)

This has been in my wishlist since the Before Times. Progress looks great.
Ever since I watched the first video on this game, I have been interested. I wish you best, and hope this game lives up to not just your expectations, but ours too.
This is awesome. Added to wishlist. I LOVE the idea of "if we really had magic, we'd have magical swat teams"
Those transitions are so simple and so good!
Hell, yeah. I have been waiting for this
Having played the previous beta I'm super glad they've been waiting to release more.

hope this game comes out soon, been watching it for awhile. Heat Signature had such an awesome soundtrack, hope they get the same musician
I can understand the reason behind the change of Jen’s character design and backstory, but i really hope that the old design, or at least the witch hat with the sillitoe tartan is available as a skin
I am really excited for this game! I found one of your vids about it like a year ago and have had it on my wishlist ever since
Looks great, been patiently waiting for this for a long time. Very much looking forward to the beta!
Tom you such a great guy :) Watching you with your creations fills my mana bar.
I've been waiting for this for a while I'm really excited
Really really like the changes to reinforcement doors, I played an earlier test and this looks better. The game looks fantastic, great job as usual
My new fashion icon is whoever that medic looking character is
Been following this project for so long, every time I see an update I get exctatic!
Been fan of your work since you started working on Gunpoint. This is awesome.
Love it from the concept art stage. Hopefully we can see the sniper staff soon :))
"Navy Seer"
BRILLIANT!
Looks awesome. Navy Seer is also fantastic.
Okay you had me with the concept and art style, but the gameplay has me itching to play this!
Navy seer bahaha your writing is always so charming
This art style is so clean, love it!
I just hear that you make this game
OMG nicely done!!!!!
I love it. Nice work. Excited to play.
Idk how but I predicted that a new trailer of this game would come soon
I was sold on "Navy Seer."
looks great
Can't wait for this game. 🙌
Been waiting so long for this! :D
Really enjoyed the first beta, can't wait for the game :)
Hell yeahhhh, im so much in love with that concept gotta get this beta
I was just thinking about this game; I still have the last early access build downloaded on Steam. Very hype!
Reminds me of Klei's Invisible inc. Good times.
The screenshake on that lightning effect is unpleasant; it's so wide and slow that my eyes lose their tracking on the scene. Tight and fast would be better imo
Definitely looks like a cool game! As a fan of Invisible Inc and Into the Breach, I'm going to keep an eye on this!
YES ITS TIME TO HYPE
this looks amazing.
This is really cool, I love it!
Out of curiousity, why did you make taking cover a separate action?
Great job, Tom! Looking forward to getting it on Linux.
This looks so nice
This looks tremendously fun
I'm so excited for this game. 🤞 for beta access
Love everything about it.
Reminds me of Into The Breach! Super excited for this game
I'm curious if the enemies will ever be magical? That would make the end game pretty bonkers!
See earlier dev videos. There was at least one boss-level treat - an enemy Traffic Mage who can summon three lanes of ghost cars and had a very big healthbar.
@@detrimidexta Sounds awesome. Thx
looking pretty polished already! Any chance this is coming to Switch? I re-bought invisible inc for it, it's such a great way to play this kind of small-scale tactics game...
This looks so fucking good dude
This look great!
Oh hell yeah! Finally!
This looks awesome!
Hell yes.
This looks really promising and interesting. Is this the only project you're working on, or are you working on several projects in parallel?
Awesome!
Are you making this game yourself or did you get a contract with big companies?
Some of those that work forces,
Are the same that cast hexes
I'm so excited!!
Psyched for this game. I love magical spec ops.
I can't watch this because I want no spoilers etc. But god damned I can't wait.
So I loved the preview.
Any chance this will come to the Switch? *(unlike the previous game this could fairly easy be ported from a control scheme point of veiw.)
o foc, u got me hyped
Can't wait!
shut up and take my money!
Hopefully I'll get picked, but regardless I'm looking forward to more gameplay.
Lovely aesthetics
Man this is great 👍
Very cool
Dalek voice: DEFENESTRATE!
Any progress? Any release date yet?
5:35
I suposse by that empty slot at the left that there will be more characters, am I right?
Any hints on what could an hypotethical 3rd class would be?
navy seer sold me on the game
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO
Love IT!
This wizard SWAT team definitely looks and feels badass, especially in action! Kinda OP, but very, very badass!
"Navy Seer" lol
Now throwing people out of windows in 3D!
So when I design a level it might get into the game?
nice video game, tom. looking forward to throwing people out of windows in this one.
You gotta defenestrate to accumulate.
Interesting...
are the ambiguous skin colors a tactical marketing choice to try to appeal to all demographics
All windows must perish!
I wanna cosplay as one of these...
