Introducing Railbreak! Special DINOBREAK Steam Tonight With Giveaway!



Today we're announcing Railbreak, a new on-rails arcade shooter that takes place in the world of Outbreak: Shades of Horror.

View the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uDtY1klUnM

Development of Railbreak has taken place alongside Shades of Horror, with each game helping and enhancing the other! Railbreak started as a way to test and build out the co-op functionality in Shades of Horror, and it was so fun that we had to create a full featured experience out of it!

Featuring areas and content from the first act of Shades of Horror, Railbreak is the ultimate sneak peek into how development on SOH is progressing.

If you are an on-rails arcade game fan, you will be as thrilled as we are that the Railbreak features optional support for Sinden Lightguns (Keep your peepers open for a bundle, people!!). The game is fully playable in both single player and optional two player co-op with gamepad, mouse, and lightgun!

You can now check out Railbreak's Steam store page and Epic Games Store page! Please consider wishlisting the game as it helps us out a lot! Stay tuned for more details as Railbreak approaches its Winter release!



Meanwhile, DINOBREAK has met with a wonderful reception since its launch last week. Thank you to everyone who has bought and played the game!

If you enjoyed the game, please consider leaving us a positive review! It really does help us out a lot!

If you haven't yet purchased DINOBREAK, you can find it on most current platforms at an MSRP of $19.99 USD (worldwide pricing may vary). We built this game as a spiritual successor to classic survival horror game Dino Crisis, and we're thrilled with how it's turned out!

You can check out DINOBREAK here:

We'll be doing a special stream tonight 10/13 at 7PM ET on Twitch where we'll be talking about Railbreak and also playing through DINOBREAK's Story Mode! Come and hang out, and feel free to ask us whatever questions you may have! If you come by, we will also be giving away a copy of DINOBREAK to one lucky viewer, so stop in for a chance to win!

That's all for now, Survivors! Stay tuned for more information in the near future!
