Our community is amazing.
Project Wraith will be our labour of love – together.
Thanks to backers on Kickstarter and subsequent Epic MegaGrant award – we aim to a deliver a fun game. It won’t be perfect, but we will strive to improve it. An indie experience made by a small team of passionate hobbyists.
Gameplay 1st
If the core gameplay loop isn’t fun, then the foundation is weak. We are focusing on fluid controls and gameplay, easy to learn but hard to master. Rewarding players with a sense of achievement for mastering the game. Learning nade spots, jump boosts and every little angle they can to gain an advantage. Think of classics like CoD4’s Promod reimagined in 2020, with netcode favouring the defender, running at a solid 90Hz tickrate. All in a fast-TTK package – your mistakes will be punished, a tactical experience.
A new home
Solo ranked matchmaking, team scrims, leaderboards and tournaments is our final goal. We want to create a home for Competitive players of skill levels. But casual is equally as important, trying to force everyone to play under one banner will result in alienation of your playerbase. Let players decide and host their own servers and communities with complete autonomy. We will support you, and not abandon you like the AAA games, by artificially segmenting our player-base with yearly releases and pay-walls.
Our promise!
New maps and weapons will always be free. No pay to win, ever. Just cosmetics only. This is what it means to care for your players – not treat them like $$$, but human beings. Remember, we are gamers too. So that means NO to predatory practices, or unfair grind/paywalls. You pay once and that’s it. You can choose to further support us with cosmetic purchases that have zero effect on gameplay. Project Wraith will be supported for as long as possible, and not abandoned. We truly believe in the live service model and will try our best to do so.
Uncompromising quality
We’re a passion project with no funding as of now, yet we hold ourselves to high standards and we’re proud of what we’re doing. We do it with a smile. If we ever do become successful, we won’t forget where we started. A grass roots endeavour.
We’re looking for talent
Intrigued? Grassrootz Studios is growing fast. We have talented animators, sound designers, programmers, artists and more. We’re the definition of a true grassroots gaming movement. Everyone is working on Project Wraith whilst having full-time jobs and lives, commitment and passion to make a great game first, we are tired of asset-flips and our only goal is to create a satisfying, skilful FPS game. Our scope is simple and realistic, not another Battle Royale or the ‘next big thing’ – we are not here to promise the world to everyone. How about a well-made game with a focus on gameplay?
