Raising funds to complete our mobile game: Shadowlines. Fun block-breaker style game! Hours of fun, achievements & lots of destruction!

THE GAME : Shadowlines™ is a First Person Shooter style physics-based, block-breaker game. (Try to say that three times fast!) What that means is, you get to shoot various objects with a number of different projectiles. Each projectile has it’s own ability and effects on different objects. The main objective of the game is to kill all the enemies on the screen, destroy as many objects as possible, in as few shots as you can. At the successful completion of each level your score will be added up and a Gold, Silver or Bronze medal will be awarded. There are also several skill testing achievements to unlock as well as Game Center compatibility. Beat your friend’s high score! Unlock more skill testing achievements! All in 60 + levels of addicting block smashing, bad guy exploding fun!

WHAT MAKES SHADOWLINES™ DIFFERENT?

WEAPON OF CHOICE : What makes Shadowlines™ different from other similar style games is the ability to choose your projectile (bullet). Other games force you to use what is next in line. With Shadowlines™ you have the ability to choose which one you would like to fire! Develop your own strategy and plan your shot carefully! Remember, the main objective is to kill all enemies and cause as much damage in the LEAST number of shots!

F . P . S & HORRIZONATAL MOVEMENT : The game is mainly in First Person Shooter style however, there are projectiles that have the ability to move horizontally (left and right). What does that really mean? It means a more diverse and fun style of game play! Not only do you get to strategically choose your shot but you also have to decide whether it is best to blast your target straight on, or from the side. This mix of game play creates an almost endless number of possibilities and outcomes!

CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ! 

Shadolwines™ is not only an great fun & addicting game BUT it is also a critically acclaimed comic book series! It sells on local comic shop’s shelves! (Which is very hard for an indie title to do). Check out more about our comic title that is making noise in the indie scene!

Risks and challenges Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Risks include entering one of the largest growing markets in the World today. The mobile game market. It is never easy entering into a new industry but with hard work, talented individuals and persistence it is very possible to achieve success. One major challenge was finding the team that worked just right and that took months but we got it done. This whole journey has been a great learning experience full up up hill challenges but at this stage and with all we have over-come, we are confidently looking forward to where we are headed!
