Yesterday we've been contacted by a long-time Bear's Pit follower, Henry Vuontisjärvi, who is going public with a very interesting new project. A counter-terrorism themed game inspired by Jagged Alliance, XCOM and also tactical shooters like the original Rainbow Six and the SWAT-series. The game is on Steam Greenlight now and these guys seem to have the heart in the right place when it comes to to what we love in a TBS. Their game is called "End State" and promises to feature:

- Turn-based tactical combat, with action points and interruptions.
- Interactive levels with different types of cover, peeking around corners, climbing through windows, destuctable walls and objects and more.
- Stealth options with advanced visibility and hearing systems.
- Range of modern weapons from pistols to sniper rifles with varying accuracy, reaction, damage, penetration and more.
- Varying mission types capture intel, eliminate high-value targets, rescue hostages and more.
- Strategic layer where you manage your operatives, skills, equipment, leads and missions.

If you wish to read more about Henry and his dream to make a JA2 inspired game, here's the story on their website:

I know everyone atm is kinda bummed out due to JA:F failure, but looks like at least we might get a decent turn-based tactical squad game based on Unity, even though it's not called Jagged anything.
