The team game demands a good tactical sense, to take full advantage of the effects of the spells, such as the area of effect damage of the fireball, or the stun caused by the thunder clap. Work with your teammates to overcome your enemies, or you will suffer a crushing defeat! Players of all ages and levels, unite, pick up Halzae's essence, break the ultimate crystals, team up, fight for the freedom of your divinities, triumph of your opponents, and win tournaments!

SaltClock Studio was founded by former students from Créajeux, a French school dedicated to video game related jobs. During the last year, the team developed, as an end-of-study project, a multiplayer online battle arena: Halzae: Heroes of Divinity. Following the success of the game with the teachers, the professionals of the industry who came for the presentation of the project, and the students of the school, the team decided to create a new development studio, to transform this student game in a real video game.

To allow them to the quality of their game as much as possible, SaltClock Studio will launch a Halzae: Heroes of Divinity kickstarter campaign on Nov. 13, 2018.

In Halzae: Heroes of Divinity, each player chooses four spells at the beginning of the game, as well as his character, who has a basic attack and a specific capacity. He also chooses a passive before jumping into battle! Once in the game, the players must pick up some Halzae's essence, so they can fire their spells. Some needs a small quantity of it, and are not very powerful. Others will annihilate several opponents, but need a larger amount of Halzae's essence. Be careful when you choose your spells!

The players are fighting in several game modes:

  • In DeathMatch and Team DeathMatch, the goal is to kill as many opponents as possible. If there is a draw when the timer ends, then there is an extra time, until one player, or one team, surpasses his rival!
  • In the game mode HardPoint, two teams fight for the control of strategical areas appearing in different spots in the arena. When a player is in one of these areas, his team scores points. If players of both teams are in the same area, then the area becomes contested, and no points are scored. Don't forget to coordinate with your teammates to leave no chances to your opponents!
  • Then, there is the Capture the Flag, who sees two teams face off, each having a flag in their bases. To score points, and win the game, each team has to capture the enemy's flag, and bring it to their base. If there is a draw at the end of the timer, it's time for the golden flag!

Halzae: Heroes of Divinity is currently in development on PC, scheduled for 2019.
