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:

Railbreak Free Content Update ONE: Time Korrisis


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!  Come hang out with us and learn more about the next chapter of Railbreak!


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

Hey gang, it's Evan. I managed to distract CMM and successfully write a Kickstarter update! Lots to talk about so let's jump in!

RailbreakVR & Tailbreak Expansion Pack - Jan 30th 10AM PT on BackerKit Funding!

We're moving our upcoming crowdfunding campaign to BackerKit Crowdfunding as we got a superior deal compared to our original plan. Post campaign funding will still be handled through Indiegogo InDemand, but the main campaign is now on BackerKit!

Out of the loop? RailbreakVR is a native implementation of virtual reality support across the entire Railbreak game! Tailbreak is our Dinobreak-inspired first major expansion pack for both Railbreak & Railbreak VR so everyone can play! New story content, game modes, and more! If our campaign is successful, it's all coming Oct 2024 so make sure to get your pledge in early on Jan 30th! Check the teaser video above!

We even have a giveaway to celebrate the news happening on Twitter right now! 

Sign up here NOW!: 

Railbreak Content Update One (Free)

We're finishing up our work on the first free content update for Railbreak, likely coming on an auspicious date soon! Featuring a massive new game mode that gives you a way to play all the content in the game in a brand new way, plus a new character, new weapons, abilities, glitches, and more! It'll be a rager so stay tuned as it's coming quicker than you may think!

Outbreak: Shades of Horror

We'll be sharing our roadmap for Outbreak: Shades of Horror in March 2024. Stay tuned for all the juicy details!

Next stream w/ CMM & Evan?

Happening next week! Stay tuned for details as I heroically try to continue my onslaught in Resident Evil 4 Remake VR and take all your questions, plus some great giveaways!
