WELCOME TO OUR KICKSTARTER PROJECT!
We are looking for your support to get our little indie game ‘Derrick the Deathfin’ on to mobile!
Derrick is a fast-paced arcade action sideways scroller set in a unique aquatic world entirely made out of paper and card. Derrick and his underwater home was hand crafted by street artist Ronzo, with an army of helpers through hundreds of hours of painstaking paper folding, cutting and gluing. Together with Indie developer gordon from Different Cloth a truly exciting video game was created. It launched on the Playstation Network (2012) and later on Steam (2014), but now he’s swimming menacingly towards a mobile app release.
With your backing, together we can create an incredible mobile version for Derrick - specifically for iOS and Android phones & tablets. We would be truly grateful for your support - and we have great rewards to give out too. Please see below. What are you waiting for? Let's #SaveTheShark.

Derrick and his friends were all cut out and folded by hand from cardboard and paper. With an army of helpers we spend hundreds of hours of painstaking paper folding, cutting and gluing. Besides all the creatures, we built rocks, plants, caves, oil rigs, tanker ships and many other objects feature in the game. We assembled little model sets and underwater sceneries, which we filmed and turned (with help from our computer wizards Ten24) into an actual playable game.

Derrick the Deathfin is the world’s first underwater paper craft video game. It’s a fast-paced arcade action title set in a unique aquatic world made entirely out of paper & card. In the game Derrick rampages around the globe munching on paper creatures and destroying everything he sees under the guise of avenging the death of his parents. Derrick’s quest takes him all around the globe, through 3 types of level, 4 different continents, 11 vibrant environments and 32 challenging levels featuring 'Survival Mode','Time Challenges','Puzzle Levels' and 'Boss Battles'.

The vast majority of your donation will go to game design & development by me - gordon (hello!) - to give me the chance to continue working on the mobile version until it's as perfect as can be. We already invested countless hours of work into this but have now reached a crucial stage where funding is required to help us achieve the best possible result. We really want to do Derrick on mobile justice, not just quickly whack out a whack version :) So please give generously - we really appreciate your support!

Risks and challenges
Obviously recreating the game for mobile platforms is not without it's challenges, particularly in terms of the controls - which we are currently iterating over to get right.
We don't anticipate too many blockers on the project technically, since we originally launched on PS3 & have an efficient and well optimised game that runs well on latest generation mobile devices in it's current form.
Creatively the biggest risk that Derrick (& any game!) faces is overrun on timings - but we will do our best here! That said if we need to work on it more than envisaged to make sure it's top quality we'd rather do that and overrun a bit :)
