Project Aftermath

About

Project Aftermath lets you control up to four squads of soldiers in fast-paced real-time battles set in a retro-futuristic world. Customize each unit with weapons armor and special abilities collected from defeated enemies. Upgrade your gear through a research tree that evolves as you play. The focus is on adapting tactics mid-match whether you prefer brute force stealth or a mix of magic-like powers and heavy firepower. This PAX10 winner stands out for its deep customization and strategic flexibility. Over 100 items let you reshape loadouts in real time creating builds tailored to enemy weaknesses or terrain. While its 2008 release date makes it a niche title fans praise the game's tight gameplay loop and replayability. The single-player campaigns and asymmetric unit designs keep matches feeling fresh despite the lack of multiplayer or modern polish.
