Hello Survivors!
We have a few fun announcements for you today!
First, we just announced our first ever Visual Novel! It's called Outbreak The FEDORA Files: What Lydia Knows.
Super and extra-natural phenomena around the world are officially disavowed. In the United States, these phenomena are unofficially investigated by an elite squad of agents known as the Federal Disaster Organic Response Agency. These are their stories.
Something isn't right in the city of Cypress Ridge...
In our first file; What Lydia Knows, play as intrepid detective Lydia Daniels as she tries to discover the mystery behind her partner's disappearance. Search for clues, probe allies and enemies, and uncover the mystery of the Jack Street Sewers in this first installment that acts a prequel to Outbreak: Shades of Horror.
Features
Narrative rich visual novel with a deep and engrossing storyline.
Multiple paths and endings to unlock where your choices matter.
Meet, befriend, or alienate a wide cast of characters where your relationships matter.
Solve devious puzzles and navigate crazy minigames as you hunt for the truth.
After the credits roll, fight your way through a replayable and engaging bonus mode.
More specific information on Outbreak The FEDORA Files: What Lydia Knows is coming soon! In the meantime, you can already wishlist it on Steam! Check out the first screenshots for the game there, too!
Next, our BackerKit for Railbreak VR & Tailbreak is still underway!
Thanks to everyone's generosity, we've met the funding goal for the project, so Railbreak VR & the Tailbreak DLC expansion are locked! We've also met our first stretch goal, which will allow us to add dual wielding to Railbreak VR!
Our next stretch goal is to make Railbreak VR possible for PlayStation VR 2! Help us reach it at our BackerKit page today!
Finally, we're going live on TwitchTONIGHT at around 7:15pm ET (that's very soon!) with Resident Evil 2 for the Dreamcast! We'll also be talking all things Outbreak The FEDORA Files and the BackerKit campaign!
Come by and you can even win a copy of DINOBREAK or Railbreak!
That's all for today, Survivors! We look forward to sharing more info with you soon!

Hello Survivors! We have a few announcements and updates for you today!
Legacy Games Reward Distribution
We are happy to announce we will begin shipping the Legacy Games digital rewards to backers starting in the next 10 days! If you pledged for this reward, keep an eye on the email account you used to back this Kickstarter!
Railbreak VR + Tailbreak Funded on BackerKit - Stretch Goals Available Now!
Wow! The campaign for Railbreak VR and Tailbreak is already fully funded! You can expect Railbreak VR and the Tailbreak DLC expansion to launch in October of this year for Steam VR!
We have plenty of awesome stretch goals, including more VR platforms for Railbreak VR (like Meta Quest 3!), an additional story chapter for the Tailbreak DLC expansion, and more!
You can see the BackerKit campaign here:
Special Gleam Giveaway to Celebrate the BackerKit! Win an Xbox Series X and more!
If you check out our BackerKit, you can enter for a chance to win prizes including an Xbox Series X, a Volcanic Red DualSense controller, and more! Just follow the steps on this fancy Gleam, and be sure to refer your friends for more entries!
The first free content update for Railbreak is now live! This update features a new scoring mode and a new playable character! Turn on the Time Korrisis scoring mode to transform Railbreak into a time attack game! Shooting and killing enemies, picking up items, and more all add time to the ticking clock; run out of time and it's going to cost a Continue! Shoot strategically and efficiently to build up your remaining time for the best rank!
Looking for a change of pace? Try out new playable character Korrine! Her plasma cannon weapon is power hungry but deadly, and her Katana blasts out punishing sword beams! When wielding the Katana, you may encounter the new Super Glitch 'Korrine's Blessing.' When this activates, your damage output will soar, but you'll also suffer a massive debuff!
We're LIVE on Twitch NOW Until 12AM ET!
To celebrate the launch and funding of our Railbreak VR + Tailbreak BackerKit campaign, we're going to be LIVE on our Twitch channel showing off the new content update for Railbreak, talking about the campaign, and playing all kinds of retro arcade lightgun goodness!

That's everything for today, Survivors! Until next time, take care!
