Our stream from Hex Gambit‘s Early Access launch day! Wherein our accountant asks us tax return questions just before we need to start, so we have to skip our mic check and Adam is very loud. It’s an intense match, though, as Adam somehow dismantles the march of the brutes!

The time has come! Everyone can get their hands on our new turn-based strategy game, Hex Gambit, RIGHT NOW on Steam. The very first league season of our beta is just getting started, so choose a faction and make your mark in a community-wide turf war, the Apex Cup. Anyone looking to mingle with other hexagonal strategists should look no further than the Hex Gambit discord server, where our veteran testers have been hanging out since the early days of the alpha version.
There are two great reasons to dive in during this beta: you’ll get 10% off the launch price for helping us test (snag a second copy at 20% off with the 2 Pack available here), and your feedback (sent to contact at onemanleft.com) will influence what kind of changes are made as we bring the remaining features online for launch.
What you can play today:
- Test your mettle in 1v1, or join a friend for 2v2 co-op
- Six unlockable captains
- Choose a faction and fight for territory in the Apex Cup
- Transition seamlessly between real-time and asynchronous play online
Features we’ll add in the coming months:
- Two new minions: the Sniper and Pacifist
- Select a captain and five minion classes to craft a personal playstyle. Tons of ways to combine moves and characters!
- Have a game night with couch multiplayer
- Tackle our single player challenge mode: the Blitz Royale
See you in the arena!
Got my center piece all modeled and unwrapped.
Hex Gambit will finally be open for anyone to play next Tuesday, April 17th! You can get ready by wishlisting us on Steam right now. We’ll also be streaming the game on launch day on our Twitch channel at 1pm Central time.
Both the Sniper and Pacifist are animated with their special effects ready, so they’ll just need some sound and code once we’re ready for them. With all the launch minion art settled (we’ll be showing them off as they get implemented a little later on), my next big ticket item is a modified arena for Blitz Royale, our single player mode.
The main reason we didn’t include an artbook as a Kickstarter reward is that my preproduction work is SUPER utilitarian. Half of it doesn’t even get saved. Some of the concept makes it onto the paper, a lot of it stays in my brain or gets labelled “figure it out later”, and then I start making stuff. So here’s my scribbles below to give you a sense of it, and I’ll post my progress as things get prettier.
Scribbles that only really make sense to me.
Blocking in placeholder models.
