Lancer Tactics
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
A full port of the Lancer TTRPG to a mecha tactics game. Build your squad with some of the best damn customization options ever seen in a tactics RPG & blow up some space cops.
This started as a small excuse for me to learn Godot and feed my love of the Lancer system & universe, but is spiraling out into a full game. I hope you have fun!
This page is for post-Kickstarter early access builds. You can find the original in-browser prototype here:

[Aug 2025] Warning: AMD recently released a graphics driver update that has broken many 3D games made in the Godot engine. Update: you should now be able to download a driver patch from AMD that fixes the issue.
