Day 12 GA added

Hey guys, been a while since I have started a thread. First of all I am not completely sure if it is alright to do promotions like this here, I did go through old threads and found similar ones but if it is not alright I will just close the thread down immediately, stomach any punishment and shamelessly self-promote through public giveaways. =)

I am working at a studio that makes video games for mobile (but not just some casual stuff) and we are nearing the release of our biggest title yet, Shadowgun Legends. Right now we are in a closed BETA stage and as we are operating without any big publisher, we are looking for alternative ways of letting people know of our game and since I have been on Steamgifts for a while now and it is a community of gamers I thought why not, even though our game is for mobile.

Shadowgun Legends is a mobile FPS with RPG elements set in futuristic world where human race has fight off alien threat on different planets. You can play through singleplayer story campaign, venture to dungeons and on raids together with your friends or battle in PvP arenas with up to 7 other players. After mission you can meet other players in Hub and engage in social activities as well as show off your gear (which is very customizable).

The game is free to play and monetization is based on cosmetics -> basically there are no advantages purchasable for real money, just emotes, skin variations for armors, helmets, stickers you can put on them and spray cans to color your equipment to your liking.

Here are some videos with gameplay and whatsnot:

Teaser

That's about it, if it intrugues you even a little I (we) would appreciate if you could take your time to pre-register HERE to get notified when the game releases as well as to get some cool stuff to start you off.

TLDR: We are working on a game and would really appreciate if you could check it out and possibly pre-register for release HERE.

I will be adding new giveaway every day for a while to keep the thread alive, mostly games from past Humble Monthlies:

Being an old geezer, I usually prefer turn-based games and puzzles, especially on the mobile phone. But the game looks like it could be a big thing with the "mobile generation". Best of luck! :)

And thanks for the GAs!

Totally understandable, I am more of a CCG fan (at least on mobile) myself. But yeah, I am sure our game will find its audience. Thanks for your kind words!

The fact that I had to google CCG and deduct you were talking about Collectible Card Games and not the Canadian Coast Guard nor the Control Commission for Germany/British Element (which existed right after WW2) pretty much says it all. :D

Make sure to keep us updated about your game's success in the future. All the best, you guys must have put a tremendous amount of work into that project!

Edit: I also wanted to mention that I really like that you can't buy advantages in the game, merely cosmetics. Too many games are pay-to-win nowadays.

To be honest I had to google the term prior using it as well (knew there is a term like this but was not sure about it). :P

We have been developing this for over two years (with some complete restarts along the way) and we are close to finally coming to an end (or beginning?). Will definitely keep this post alive until (or even after) the release to keep those who are interested involved. :)

Just not that much into HOGs. I spend enough time finding hidden objects in my small flat, don't want to do that virtually as well. :D

Ok I took a look and game looks really nice. Unfortunately, mobile games are not my cup of tea.
I don't care for multiplayer pvp, but I understand there is a singleplayer campaign. I will take this game into consideration if there will be a pc version.
About microtransactions, being a fan of Path of Exile, I simply can't agree more on your system. Keep up the good work!

I have to say this looks looks rather awesome and promising! Since I am a bit out of touch with mobile gaming for the past few years, other than an occasional title here and there, I have to ask - will crossplay between the two platforms be available or would they play on separate servers?

EDIT: Hahahaha, I KNEW the logo seemed familiar! I DID play Shadowgun (just Shadowgun) on my then Tegra powered phone and loved where mobile gaming headed and what some of the companies, including yours, achieved :) I miss Tegra gaming :'( But yes, the game really had a good vibe back then, I'd play it even now, so I am deffo lookin' forward to this new title :)

Awesome to hear that there are people who know us and have fond memories of our previous games! All of our previous multiplayer games were cross-platform (Android x iOS) and Shadowgun Legends is no exception. While tegra is pretty much not a thing in mobile gaming anymore, we do support nVidia Shield TV. ;)

Hehehe, nVidia Shield TV - spot on what I thought :)

Ah, grrrrrrrrreat to hear they are cross-platform! I will look into co-op with my gf, because your newest title really catches an eye! That, and we can never have enough co-op games :D

Oh, man! Just realized that Dead Trigger is also one of your games! That is an awesome game too!
You guys really did bring out the potential of Unity, and made some of the games that amazed me tremendously judging by the mere fact that they were on mobile at that time :D

Already preregistered, played the third person Shadowgun years ago. Interested in the single player, hopefully you guys have an easy mode because I struggle with touch controls. Thumbs up for going with cosmetics only monetization.

The game does support controllers (if that is of any help at all) but hey, the touch controls have gone a long way since first Shadowgun and while it cannot really be compared to mouse and keyboard (as a long time CS player I know that best :P) it has gotten much better. Hoping to meet you in game once it is out!

Your game sounds cool, but I've rarely clicked with mobile games. I also strongly prefer mouse and keyboard for FPS games over touch controls - I find touch controls best suited to turn-based games. Is it something you could port over to PC?

We have ported some of our games over to PC but we are primarily a mobile dev. If the game finds success and we are happy with the state they are in on mobile we might consider bringing them over to PC but that's a distant future right now. :)

Have your games found success on PC after being ported, or is Steam / PC just too busy of a marketplace?

We have pretty much given up on stand alone versions since those were too easy to hack and modify (haven't tried Steam actually) so currently the games we have available on PC are running through Facebook but compared to the mobile versions they are nowhere near as succesfull.

By hack and modify, do you mean pirate, or do you mean change the game's settings / currencies / etc?

In this case it was changing the game's settings to get free currency/unlock skins since the game was free to play.

Ah, I can see how that would be an issue. What are your games coded in, if you don't mind me asking?

All of our games are made in Unity. :)

Sorry about that, we have just found out we are not able to handle increased traffic. Our web guy is currently tackling the issue. :F
