Chaos Pattern

Chaos Pattern is an online multiplayer cooperative action/strategy hybrid game where each player assumes the role of a Guardian who is schooled in the rescue, training, and care of a wide variety of companions that they affectionately call Monsters. Together the Guardian and their Monster work to free their world of a mysterious menace secretly tracking most aspects of their lives.

Chaos Pattern is powered by Unreal Engine 5 and is a blend of detailed 3D pixel art and modern rendering techniques, along with lots of things to blow up with dynamic destruction.FEEL THE CHAOS

The core of the game is fast-paced action as you control your Guardian, traversing the levels with your Monster and facing off against the Synthel.

CREATE A PATTERN

You can also quickly lay down commands for your Monster to unleash their most potent abilities onto the battlefield. In this clip, the robot companion XJ97 is instructed to lay down a drone to distract the enemy, send a rocket barrage toward the most powerful enemy turret in the current skirmish, then fall back to begin sniping targets of opportunity with his powerful and accurate rifle.

DISCOVER THE BATTLEFIELD

When a player freezes time, control changes to a roaming camera that you can use to inspect the battlefield. Hovering over discovered enemies can give you more information about them, including their field of view, how they’re powered, and any movement plans they’ve made so far. Use this information to help craft your plans. For example, knocking out a power source may disable an enemy, but it can also render doors or respawn locations inoperable.

LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES

Sometimes even the most carefully laid plans can go awry when the action starts flowing!

ADJUST YOUR PLANS

Fortunately the Guardians have the ability to quickly replace their plans with a simple click on a location to move to, attack, or interact with.

BETTER WITH FRIENDS

As with many of our favorite games, they’re always more fun with friends! Increase the number of abilities your team has access to by playing with others, and combine those powers to create new and powerful combos. Sometimes throwing up a shield in the right spot can allow you to setup a strong attack from an otherwise untenable position!

PIXEL ART AND UNREAL 5

Chaos Pattern uses a retro 3D art style rendered with the most modern techniques in Unreal Engine 5.

BACKGROUND STORY

Chaos Pattern is set on another world with some echoes of our own, known as Agria. Their technology is more primitive than ours in some ways, and more advanced in others. There is magic in this world, although distrusted by many who prefer their reliable technology.

The game is set just as our protagonists are discovering that the world is not what they thought, and that there is an alien presence, the Synthel, that influence most aspects of everyday life. The Synthel control countless worlds, subtly manipulating events to meet their own needs. On most sites they go undetected. On the rare occasion when a world discovers they are being manipulated, the planet is slated for a “Reset”, the total wiping of the existing life-forms so the Synthel can start over. Chaos Pattern begins as a reset request has been relayed back to the Synthel home world as they start preparing the world for destruction.

There is a mixture of different types of lifeforms on Agria, including the newly discovered Monsters that each Guardian is bound to. Each type of sentient life can be broadly categorized into four categories: Life, Death, Magic, and Technology.

The magic found on Agria somehow found a way to bind to the creations of the Synthel, to create new powerful mutations from each type of native life form. Normally if creatures pop up that aren’t to the exact plan of the Synthel, they dispatch forces to destroy them, as they find them abhorrent monsters. But one of these “monsters” was found and cared for by a student of the Life School, Chuck Vanderbee, and his friends. A bond was formed, and our story begins.
