Rashid Sayed: Will there be strategic way to take out these Titans or will it be a case of players accumulating powerful weapons or skills to take them out? Rashid Sayed: How many Titans will the final version have? "You don't gain any extra powers, weapons or anything else during the game, you just become more skilled at playing the game so you can execute tougher challenges as you progress." You find out more about the game’s story as you progress through it. Mark Foster: The character is simply an extension of yourself, their personality and motivations are simply your own. How do you plan to give personality and a sense of bad assness about him? Rashid Sayed: Tell us about the playable character. Mark Foster: Yep the game will be cross buy and have cloud saving available. Rashid Sayed: Are you guys planning to include cross buy and cross save for the PS Vita and PS4 versions? Mark Foster: Microsoft’s policies still have parity clauses which mean if we release it on PS4/Vita first, we can’t bring it to their console later so it probably won’t be on Xbox. Is there a specific reason why Titan Souls won’t launch on the Xbox One? After all, Microsoft did revamp their indie policy. Rashid Sayed: I find it rather interesting that Titan Souls is not scheduled for the Xbox One. No fight feels the same in any way and we explore different ways of using the game’s mechanics to get the most out of them. Mark Foster: Each Titan is just entirely different, in visuals, movement, attacks, pacing and weaknesses. Rashid Sayed: How are you making sure that each Titan is unique and challenging at the same time? Will they have a different personality and move set? There’s no grinding down health bars or anything, the game is set on a knife’s edge, one tiny slip and you will die, but the Titans have that same vulnerability. Mark Foster: Each Titan has a weak spot which you need to discover and hit with your arrow to kill. It can either kill the player or the Titan. Rashid Sayed: I am intrigued by the concept of single strike. There's no grinding down health bars or anything, the game is set on a knife's edge." "Each Titan has a weak spot which you need to discover and hit with your arrow to kill. Titan Souls will be out in 2015 for the PS4, Vita and PC via Steam to stay tuned for more details. What sets it apart from the crowd and will it take advantage of the various features between the PS4 and PS Vita? We spoke to designer Mark Foster about the same and also gathered his input on why the game is only releasing for PlayStation consoles. Through various twists and turns, Titan Souls morphed into a full fledged game for the PS4, PS Vita and PC. To even the odds, the Titans also have a single health point but you’ll need to hit their weak spot in order to properly down them. The arrow is indestructible so you’re not completely helpless but you only have one health point. As a concept, Acid Nerve’s Titan Souls began development in December 2013 where the idea was to explore a world full of various dangers – namely from the Titans – armed with only a single arrow.
