You’re a cop turned private eye who has just served 10 years in prison for a crime you didn’t commit. An investigation at an abandoned hospital had left your partner dead and the hospital reduced to ashes. You didn’t do it.

You are given an opportunity to clear your name. You jump at it.

A colorful cast of characters will accompany you through Pinnacle City’s diverse territories as you search for the truth. Battle against the criminal underground and summon the courage to face beings beyond the realm of your imagination.

Kunal Majmudar, co-owner, SWDTech Games: We’ve been building Pixel Noir for quite a long time — six years to be exact!” We’ve gone from old, proof-of-concept builds to UX (User Experience) test builds to the current pre-alpha state. We’re hugely excited to not only to announce our deal with BadLand Games, but to also announce the availability of the closed alpha demo to our amazing backers!

Luis Quintans, CEO, BadLand Games: BadLand Games was forged in the fire that drives indie development, and our sole goal is to bring these incredible works of art to every gamer on the planet. Pixel Noir transcends genres to deliver something surprisingly new. Finding a gem like Pixel Noir is more than a mission; it’s in our blood.
