Title: 'Pixel Noir', a game I'm working on just went up on Kickstarter :)
Post by: Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens on Fri 18/04/2014 08:19:31
Hey, boys and ghouls.  Thought I'd let you know about a game I'm doing the principal artwork and animations (and some of the design work) for called Pixel Noir.  It's a kind of dark detective/mystery/rpg with gameplay similar to the Breath of Fire games but with some twists (like upgradeable weaponry ^_^).

Anyway, if it sounds like something you'd like, the $15 tier to get a copy for pc, mac, or PS4 (yeah, ps4!) is still available:

If you have any questions about the game that I can answer I'd be happy to do so, just drop me a PM, that way I will be email notified and can respond asap.

Thanks for your time!

Ow wow, this looks fantastic!  "Help fund a JRPG-inspired, 16-bit noir detective Role Playing Game!"

I think you had me at "16-bit noir". :-D

Good luck, man! I've always really admired your sprite art, and would love to play a game filled with them. :=

Will definitely pledge for this one. :)

Edit: Any chance of a Linux port?

DeadSuperHero: Linux is definitely listed as one of the available ports.  I think the guy who put together the pledge levels got a bit confused because of all the ports we're doing and left some out (if you look at the $10 pledge it's definitely there) so I'm pretty sure the $15 pledge gets you any ONE port that we are releasing.  I hope that helps, I'm not really dealing with the port side of things :).  If you haven't yet, I also did all of the principal sprite and animations for Resonance and The Blackwell Convergence (on STEAM) as well as battle animations for Quest for Infamy and Lead Artist/Animator on Mages' Initiation: Reign of the Elements, both coming to STEAM.

Everyone else:  Thank you for the kind words!

Wow, that game looks great, and it's for Android! :shocked: I will pledge next month, with my next paycheck.

Actually, after looking at it, it looks like linux support was stripped out :(.  I'll find out why (could be Unity).

Shoot! I just sent out my update on KS! If I saw this I would have thrown it a shout out.
I will try to pimp you out on twitter where I can! Good luck! Looks really nice! Love the sound design and music!

If you guys can, try to put an alpha demo out for the masses. We found that most of our 'word of mouth' came from Lets Plays.
