Sci-fi Arcade Runner ZIQ Crosses the Finish Line Onto PC and Mac Today

PORTLAND, OR – 2 August, 2018 – ZIQ, the frenetic sci-fi arcade runner from Midnight Sea and 3D Realms, zooms onto PC and Mac today.

An ancient, malevolent AI named Swarm wages war on all organic life and narrowly escapes his own destruction. To prepare for his revenge, he diverts all resources into the construction of his unstoppable armies, including his latest prototype: Z series IQ nanite (ZIQ). Poor ZIQ exists solely to suffer through Swarm’s constant experimentation in the form of deadly obstacle courses.

Drive ZIQ to perfection through continuous, dangerous tests designed to challenge even the most advanced neural network. More than 25 different obstacles dot his path, creating hundreds of possible configurations through seven themed procedurally-generated stages. Quick reflexes and ZIQ’s ability to switch between two polarities helps him bypass traps specifically designed for his downfall. Swap polarities at just the right moment to avoid destruction by way of threats including deadly pools of acid and tricky pop-up walls.”

The best-performing ZIQs gather charge cores to garner favor with Swarm in the form of extra points. Continue to chain charge cores seven times to become Overcharged, gaining the ability to crash through traps of any polarity for even more points. Show just how good ZIQ is, from good to perfect, by grabbing pickups at the right time to score even more points. Perfect ZIQ and snag a spot on the global leaderboard atop the pile of crushed nanites!

While ZIQ may seek approval from his creator, Swarm doesn’t care. Voiced by YouTube’s Dash Star, Swarm just can’t stop insulting the little guy. One would think Swarm would want ZIQ to do well! But no, if ZIQ performs too well, Swarm cranks up the nanite-squishing powers of his insidious levels! Survive the constant berating with expressive dark synth music and traverse the wondrous, but unforgiving, sci-fi stages.

“In addition to making an addictive runner that was easy to pick up and play, we wanted to create a world that justified the gameplay,” said Josh Ryan, co-founder of Midnight Sea. “We think players will really enjoy ZIQ’s tenacity and Swarm’s propensity for put-downs.”

ZIQ is available digitally in English on Steam for $9.99 USD.

To learn more, please visit ZIQ’s official site, or follow the game on Twitter and Facebook.

GOOD SHEPHERD ENTERTAINMENT AND CREATIVEFORGE GAMES RELEASE NEW GAMEPLAY BREAKDOWN TRAILER FOR PHANTOM DOCTRINE

Your Decisions Matter in This Cold War Strategy Thriller, Coming Aug. 14 to PlayStation®4, Xbox One and Windows PC

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, and WARSAW, Poland – Aug. 1, 2018 – Good Shepherd Entertainment has released a new gameplay breakdown trailer for Phantom Doctrine, the turn-based espionage strategy game from independent developer CreativeForge Games, creators of Hard West. As the leader of a covert organization battling a global conspiracy at the height of the Cold War, you’ll have to master operating in the shadows against overwhelming odds. Train your agents, investigate new cases, and research cutting-edge tech from your base, then infiltrate enemy facilities, eliminate their assets with stealth or brute force, and uncover their schemes.

Phantom Doctrine will launch on Aug. 14, 2018, on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One and Windows PC via Steam and GOG for $39.99. The game will be available with a 10% launch discount across all platforms. PC players can also purchase the Deluxe Version of Phantom Doctrine, which includes the game’s soundtrack and a digital art book (available separately for $9.99), for $45.99.

As part of the game’s special launch campaign, anyone who purchases the game on Steam or GOG.com within two weeks of its release will automatically be upgraded to the game’s Deluxe Version free of charge. In addition, PC players who own Hard West on Steam or GOG.com will receive an additional 5% discount when they buy Phantom Doctrine within the first two weeks after release (which stacks with the launch discount for a combined 15% discount).

Phantom Doctrine’s deep single-player mode offers two different perspectives: experience the story as a KGB counterintelligence operative or a renegade CIA commando. Players can unlock New Game Plus runs of the game’s 40-hour campaign with additional story content, or challenge rivals around the world in ruthless one-on-one online multiplayer matches. Phantom Doctrine captures the subtle tension and intrigue of classic Cold War spy films with atmospheric visuals and an unnerving soundtrack from award-winning composer Marcin Przybylowicz (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt).
