We take cheating very seriously and employ a variety of methods to prevent it. Our aim is to make Indus fun and fair for all players, much like our existing games — MaskGun and Silly Royale, we monitor and act on any unusual activity to ensure the community isn’t impacted in any way.
What engine is Indus running on?
Indus runs on Unity as base engine with a fully custom-built sandbox shooter tech stack called the Indus Engine. Mobile is the biggest segment of the global gaming market by hardware now and we want to treat players on mobile as first-class citizens rather than an after-thought. For us, working with Unity, it’s significantly easier and faster to target mobile devices because of its feature set, toolchain, and relatively lighter runtime footprint compared to some other commercially available game engines. The team has an extensive experience working with Unity over multiple shooter titles. We made a conscious choice going with Unity so that we can leverage our expertise working with it and deliver the game in hands of players as soon as possible.
What type of guns can I use in Indus?
Like most shooters, you can expect a variety of guns at launch. These include — and are not limited to — assault rifles, hand cannons, and even snipers to name a few. Speaking of snipers, we just dropped our first concept art for Ashvini, our double-barrel, burst-fire sniper in our Discord. You can also check it out right here:
