Hellmouth

Hellmouth was officially the first base to ship and served as the prototype for all future bases. It established the metric standard that all bases would follow going forward.

It was preceded by roughly fifty other prototypes, each of which provided lessons about what the team wanted from base combat and what we did not. The first major takeaway was that the base layout needed to fit within a defined radius. From this came the nature of the dome, as well as the core guidelines for plant points and the level of destruction we could achieve and wanted from a gameplay standpoint.
