    Thanks FireSkullOfDeath. Not in the first release, but we'll have different multiplayer modes added in upcoming updates for Overkill 3.

    Out now in canada & nz

    Overkill 3 is now live in soft-launch.

    There's still a lot of things missing that will be added to the global release (more guns, way more levels, enhanced boss fights and a couple of other details), but you can already expect a few hours of solid gameplay.

    Right now we're craving for feedback! Specific things, general things, whatever you think might get the game better.

    Here goes:

    Could have been great if the animation and voiced actor were great.

    Overkill 3 delayed. Gun Master 2 out now.

    Hello folks and fans,

    we've had to postpone Overkill 3 till February, mostly because we want to have more levels before going live (minimum of 20 hours of campaign mode even for hardcore players) and there are couple more reasons, based on the feedback we got. If you are interested, here's more:

    http://www.overkill3.com/blog/deployment-delayed-eta-february-2015/

    To make up for that, we created Gun Master 2, a gun builder app for all the gun zealots out there. It is a sort of preview of the guns from Overkill 3. Once happy with your gun, you can take it to a shooting range to wreck straw dummies.

    I do not disrespect anybody
    If any indie devs want to be taken seriously they got to stop hiding behind their mask. Pretending that they are expected to produce mediocre product,
    Cut it out.

    I will say it again,
    This game could had been great if the sound effects, and voice acting was at least good.
    Indies are the future of this market, let's not make them lazy with how we juge them.

    Thanks for defending us GreedPhantom.

    To add our side to the story. The animations could be better, sure, but we are quite content with our first time attempt at animations ever - given our motion capture setup consists of 5 Playstation cameras. In any case a lot of feedback revolved around the animations so we did improve them as much as we could for the final version.

    The voiceover - Working with the guy who did the main character for us was amazing. We felt a lot of enthusiasm, professionalism and we do love his voice. Seems to be a matter of preference. We just love to mix seriousness with a bit of silliness, but we know sometimes, for some people, that doesn't work.

    We're month away!

    Hello TA,

    As announced in our latest blog post, there's about a month till Overkill 3 releases.

    We got a lot of feedback during soft-launch, but most of it isn't really actionable, as the fancy word goes. We are looking for thoughts and ideas from people who understand how games work and have had their share of mobile gaming. Can't imagine a better place where to get them.

    We want to hear about features to be added. About which Overkill 3 game mechanics get on your nerves and which are pure gold. Bug reports are always nice, but we'd like to get the bigger picture with this round of playtest.

    Care to join us?

    1)You'll be playing the latest version of Overkill 3 that's not out there yet.

    2) If you come up with something tangible, you have a chance to be included in OVERKILL 3 CREDITS.

    3) We'll be rewarding OVERKILL MEDALS based on your CONTRIBUTION.

    4) Apple made it real easy to join on Testflight, no UDIDs needed - simply PM us your e-mail (that you can access on an iOS device, iPad2+, iPhone 4+).

    Let's keep the feedback out in the open in this thread, so we can compare, discuss and come up with something big together.

    The controls are great that's the first thing that stood out. it's shoot and cover action if someone is reading this and not aware of that. Shoot/Cover really works well when playing on a phone. Very smooth gaming experience and the rewards seem friendly right now. I need to play more to put more into this review but so far so good.

    Good eye there. We knew there'd the right people in here.

    I didn't use it myself and died a lot, so I got to our game designer to grill him about the difficulty only to make a fool of myslef, as he shown me that cover is indeed the bread & butter of the gameplay.

    Sure thing. Hope you can provide some good tips.


    Also added everyone else who PMed us.

    Thanks again for joining!
