Early Access

Release Date: June 3, 2025 Early Access

A unique RTS, in which instead of traditional units we control various parts of the body of a growing alien. Moduwar forces us to manage resources and the "organ tree". We can use the organs remotely to implement tactics such as flanking, distraction or quick position change.

Story
Engine and FMVs

Moduwar is an independent project by Biohex Studios that has been in development for a decade. In this real-time strategy game with FMV recordings, we command Modu, an alien life form resembling a squid.

Gameplay

The alien controlled in Moduwar is simultaneously a unit, an army, and a base. Expansion begins from the heart, which is the creature's core. Growing in water, we cultivate new organs, such as acid-spitting glands, electric or freezing ones, eye bulb stems or cutting tentacles. These bodily modules can be combined and divided into many units by us, without ceasing to constitute one living organism.

We fight against technologically advanced humans and cruel aliens called Chimeras. Instead of "producing" new combat units in our base and sending them, we literally regenerate parts of Modu's body on the battlefield. We equip the segments with mouths for melee attacks, turrets for ranged combat, or brains for reinforcements. We use remotely controlled devices to implement complex tactics, such as flanking, distraction, or rapid position change.

The size and shape of Modu affects the speed, attack bonuses, and other attributes. Given that each new body part costs resources, we need to balance expansion with efficiency. The "organ tree" includes 25 , allowing for the use of various combinations.

Multiplayer

In addition to the campaign mode, Moduwar also offers a multiplayer mode ing up to four players in a PvP match, as well as a skirmish variant and a monster arena.

Story

Originating from Arkadia, Modu had been living in peace for centuries, evolving as needed. But this peace was shattered by two warring factions, using Modu as a biological weapon. In Moduwar, as one of the humans, we lead an alien on the planet Arkadia, where we ultimately face the Chimera, an enemy alien race.
