General Tips:
- Playing in a dark room (with no glare on your monitor) will make these games a lot easier to see as well as adding to the atmosphere!
- Remember to save regularly as you never know what could be lurking around the next corner...

Troubleshooting:
The following have all been tested on a Windows 8.1 x64 machine and ran without a problem. If you are experiencing any problems, firstly make sure your graphics/DirectX drivers are up to date. If an error message appears stating that you are missing a file then download this pack and follow the included instructions.

TechCrunch

Based on an enhanced level design of LUCKY#13 I bring you the edgy first person zombie shooter TechCrunch! It is your mission to find and kill every last one of the infected humans that used to work in the factory over 50 years ago! Now these mutants roam the abandoned, gradually flooding facility in search of fresh flesh. Can you survive and eradicate the threat before the infection spreads to the rest of humanity..?

Tips:
- The level subtly interlinks which means you're likely to visit the same area more than once; the factory is colour-coded to help you keep your bearings.
- If an enemy seems too difficult or even impossible to kill, wait until you find a better/different type of weapon and return there later as you will need to kill everything.
- Remember to constantly monitor your pulse (bottom left). If you find yourself running low on health/ammo, there is a lot hidden around the factory - it's worth taking the time to explore around you.

Version 0.9 - Known Bugs:
Occasionally the game will not register as complete even when you have killed all enemies in the level
Glowing entities (such as doors/ammo/health packs & a few enemies)

 

LUCKY#13

A tale of exploration and courage, can you locate the 13 hidden demon skulls in the abandoned TechCrunch factory? The most gruesome of tales can start in the most innocent of ways...

Initially released as a preview to TechCrunch, it now provides a relaxed alternative as well as a chance to get to know the factory without the fear of death!

If you can't find all the skulls, there is a video guide below:

 

Leo Fitzgerald - Chapter 2: The Forgotten Basement

Leo couldn't turn back now, he heeded the words of the mysterious note. Disposing of his guns, knowing that keeping as quiet as possible would be imperative, Leo broke through the concealed rusted door to the basement, and commenced his search for the ancient family heirloom...

Tip: Try quickly moving backwards just after using a melee weapon to avoid your opponents retaliation.

 

Leo Fitzgerald - Chapter 1:The Haunted Mansion

Leo’s mother had died giving birth to him so he’d been raised by his oft-absent father and various nannies. Leo was given official evidence that his father had been killed fighting in battle a week before his 18th birthday. On the day of his birthday he was handed a worn letter by a mysterious stranger. It contained little content but was signed by his estranged grandfather and stated that he had some vital information about the family to pass onto Leo, and that he should meet with him as soon as possible at his residence.
Leo immediately set off on the lengthy journey. It was the dead of night when his worn-out car broke down close to his destination. Using his car fob as a light he continued his journey…

Tip:- There are two keys hidden in the game and both are required so make sure you look around carefully!

 

Lost Arenas

These are two of the countless online area maps I created at the same time as the published Gen 2 shooters. Unfortunately the gameplay was far too buggy due to the software I was using and I was therefore unable to release them. As such there is no gameplay in these versions, but I created the maps to be full of secret rooms and hiding places so they should still be fun to explore! I hope to be able to use these designs in future projects one day.
