Zeebarf and Riftmaster's 2009 adventure game series A Small Favor is being rebooted in 2013 with reimagined art, much longer content, and for the first time in the series, side-scrolling navigation, allowing you to delve deeper into the world, exploring off the beaten path and finding secrets and side quests. But we can't make it without your support, so please check out our Kickstarter and consider giving a pledge (every dollar helps!): http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/clickshake/a -small-favor-2d-side-scrolling-adventure-game

It will still be a story-based adventure game which won't require fast reflexes, but we feel that instead of restricting you to a linear path, side-scrolling allows you to climb, dig, and go into tunnels and houses and generally open up the world.

Here are the originals which were point and click:

ClickShake is a 2-man game dev team formed in 2010 by Jay "Zeebarf" Ziebarth and Steve "EntropicOrder" Castro.

Steam Greenlight is a new service that allows indie game developers to get a shot at being included on Steam, if they get enough thumbs up from the community. It's pretty neat, just went live yesterday. There are already a lot of games on there, it'll be interesting to see how it plays out and which games get picked up from it.

We're hoping to get our first commercial game Ballads of Reemus included on Steam, but we need some up votes to get there. You can sheck it out here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetail s/?id=93093387

In case you haven't heard of Ballads of Reemus, it's based on Zeebarf's Several Journeys of Reemus series, but has fully animated cutscenes, voice acting and is much bigger. Featuring Josh Tomar as the voice of Reemus! It just released this year. Sheck it here: http://www.balladsofreemus.com.

Our most requested sequel will become a reality this Halloween with The Visitor Returns, taking the death slug back to Zeebarf's original point and click adventure style, with all the horror of the original and bloodier than ever!

Play as the alien monster as you devour and assimilate your prey, becoming more powerful with each kill. The Visitor Returns is now available for sponsorship on FlashGameLicense.com.
