It's awesome when you can make some product for people. Something that others can test, explore and enjoy. Computer game is a sort of such product and we are well experienced to create one.
We are independent developers, so nobody tells us what and how we should create, except our fans. It allows us to test and implement new ideas, rely on opinion and advice of our future players.
So, we have started this project on Indiegogo with a few goals:
- To make a game funded by it's future players/fans
- To get feedback from community
- To stay independent
"Bad Weekend" is the computer game with old-school atmosphere of old horror movies/games.
The hero, an ordinary man, fights against mysterious creatures of darkness, alone in the woods. Sounds familiar? Yeah, our project is inspired by Evil Dead movie, Heart Of Darkness game and other similar things!
The game will feature a mix of tactics, action and tower defence with black humor, crazy sound and gameplay-dependant music!

We are working on the game in our free time. We need your support to make a good game.
With your help, we will make high quality graphics and models. We will also buy some content (music, sound) and software, pay for site and game content servers. If you think that our goal - 6 666 - is too low for a high quality, don't worry: most of our project is based on our priceless, so we will not ask money for our own skills.
Our primary platform is PC (Microsoft Windows), but we want to make a version for Mac OS too. In case of over-funding, we will consider it as a primary goal after game release.
There are some ways you can help us:
- Fund the project
- Use our game site and forum to express your ideas, propose game features, vote for features proposed by other people if you like it
- Tell other people about our project, maybe they can help us too! Indiegogo share tools are great for this.
Your help will be rewarded! There are some perks for you!
This includes your name on credits screen, access to private part of developer's forum, game soundtrack, special game modes, your photo in game, special gift editions of the game (with your text for your friend and ingame cake)! Just get perks you like. You can even design your own game mode and we will implement it!
At the global scale, your contribution is a step towards alternative game funding, where players affect and support developers at the stage of development. We think it's a correct way and it should become more popular.
In case of successful funding, we will implement the best game feature proposed by contributors. Those who supported this idea will be mentioned in a special list on game credits screen. Plus, we will make a cool musical video with game characters who thank all the contributors! The video will end up with a list of contributors and will be published on the title page of game site.
