Shadow of Nebula Kickstarter, Screens, Trailers & More

Here at Gamerz Unite, we have discussed many Space Sim and Space Strategy related games so we felt it would be good to keep that trend going with the most recent Kickstarter funded game called Shadow of Nebula, a Sci Fi point and click adventure game.

The game is interesting in that it has a hand drawn artistic style with pre-rendered characters. It's being billed as being a deep emotional Sci Fi story about a science expedition that got lost on its way home in that it crashed on an abandoned planet. If you survive you'll discover something that will threaten all of humanity!



Check out the copy of the Shadow of the Nebula synopsis below;

The Year 3102. Humanity has reached a level of technology that has allowed them to spread through the entire galaxy. For the galactic government, such a large population was very difficult to control. They wanted to invent a system that would control people more directly.

In the far corners of the Milky Way, an expedition of scientists got lost on its way home. What they found was something not made by humans. The ship looked like an organic root. Aliens who lived on it had been dead for a long time. It had hung in space and waited for its moment in time. Technology not of this world.

There was a man who managed to decipher a large part of the technology left behind by the aliens, the genius Alfred Nebula. He developed specialized nanobots that not only knew the human body perfectly and could heal it, but also affect its moods and thoughts. Alfred was horrified by how powerful his invention was, and destroyed the results of his studies and the prototypes of nanobots. However, he did not destroy everything.

Thirty years have since passed, and the danger is closer than ever. Our hero, a stalwart space courier, has just fought off an attack by murderous space pirates. Damages to his ship have forced him to land on Venice Blue, a planet that should be an abandoned rock in the dark of the void, with the goal to get off this damn planet ASAP. But he can't help reflect on the recent battle, and the discovery that he is somehow involved in a vast intrigue which can threaten and change the whole of the human race. As much as he feels that the chances of such a thing happening were so cosmically small, he knows that not only is it true, but that he has already been changed by it.

The producers of the game claim it to be quite mature with a dynamic and changing story line. The goal was to give it a soul that makes you have a hard time forgetting the game. They want users to really engage with it. Some of this will probably be seen in the music and humor.

The Shadow of Nebula Kickstarter campaign is still small and at $2,430 at the moment. It's goal is to hit $50,000 in order to begin development. Check out their Kickstarter Pitch video below;
