Shadowgrounds Survivor

About This Game

Surviving is only half the game.
The award-winning atmosphere and gameplay mechanics of the original Shadowgrounds make a triumphant return in this spin off/sequel armed with a slick new feature set!
Shadowgrounds Survivor tells the story of the last remaining humans on Jupiter’s moon Ganymede, where the alien onslaught is in full force.

• RPG-like upgrade system for weapons and characters – including special attacks such as the all-engrossing Napalm Flame and the mighty Brute Slayer.
• Campaign mode deepens the Shadowgrounds story and expands it to new locations, including snow and ice environments, an abandoned cargo tunnel and the suffering New Atlantis colony.
• Survival mode focuses on all-out alien slaughtering action – choose a character to suit your playing style and blast the aliens back to outer space!
• New gameplay features such as the Sentry Turret and the powerful Mech!
• New graphics enhancements including raging snowstorm effects, new weapon effects and much more.
• AGEIA PhysX brings the world alive with hundreds of physics objects that take the destruction to the next level.

Reviews

“I greatly enjoyed the unending masses of aliens which I splattered all over the landscape with pistol, machine gun, and flame thrower.”

“[The] developers decided to “remix” this game and release a hybrid expansion/follow-up. The result is Shadowgrounds Survivor, and it’s every bit as good as the first release. Survivor, the extended remix of Shadowgrounds, is a must-have for any fans of action-horror.”

“FrozenByte definitely has a winner on its hand. If you have the hankering to play an action top down shooter that looks good and has addictive gameplay, look no further than Shadowgrounds: Survivor.”

“I don’t know of any other top-down shooters for the PC which are done as well, or look as good or cost $20. You also receive the tools to completely mod the game and create additional maps. Generally my rule is that if I feel like replaying a game right after I finish it, that’s a good enough indication of its worth, and Survivor is definitely worth it.”
