Behind the Scenes: The Making of Gladius et Scutum Welcome to our blog post where we take you on an exclusive journey through the development process of Gladius et Scutum, the highly anticipated Roman video game by Bldng Blck Studios. As the first game developed by our studio, we are excited to share with you the behind-the-scenes details of this immersive Role Playing Game. One of the key selling points of Gladius et Scutum is its commitment to historical accuracy. We believe that in order to truly transport players to the heart of the Roman Empire, we must pay meticulous attention to detail. From the architecture and clothing to the weapons and combat techniques, every aspect of the game has been carefully researched and designed to reflect the historical context. Take, for example, the intricately designed gladiator combat mechanics. We wanted to create a system that not only captures the intensity and brutality of gladiatorial combat but also stays true to the historical records. Through extensive research and consultation with experts, we have developed a combat system that incorporates different fighting styles, weapons, and tactics used by gladiators during that time period. But Gladius et Scutum is not just about gladiator combat. Players also have the opportunity to choose the path of a legionary or a politician within the Roman Empire. Each role offers a unique experience and set of challenges, allowing players to explore different aspects of Roman society. As a legionary, you will engage in epic battles and defend the empire against its enemies. As a politician, you will navigate the treacherous world of Roman politics, making alliances and decisions that will shape the future of the empire. Throughout the development process, we have been fortunate to have a dedicated community of players who have participated in our closed early access play testing. Their feedback and insights have been invaluable in refining and enhancing the gameplay experience. We are grateful for their support and look forward to continuing to work with them as we bring Gladius et Scutum to its full potential. At Bldng Blck Studios, our team is driven by a passion for creating immersive and engaging gaming experiences. We are committed to delivering a game that will captivate players and transport them to the world of ancient Rome. The development of Gladius et Scutum has been a labor of love, and we are excited to share more updates with you as we continue to bring this epic Roman adventure to life. Stay tuned for more behind-the-scenes insights, gameplay previews, and updates on Gladius et Scutum. We can't wait to embark on this journey with you and invite you to join us in the heart of the Roman Empire.
