It´s not a “walk in the park” kind of thing to have a successful Kickstarter campaign. As the competition is harder than ever before. And it takes a lot of hard work on the pr-side to even get the word out about your project.

Just ask Adversary. As they tried really hard to get their shoot-em-up/puzzle/arcade game “Red Cobra” (for Windows and MAC OS) funded on Kickstarter last year.

But things diden´t work out that well in the end (“Red Cobra” was cancelled on Kickstarter in October last year).

Will Red Cobra become a bigger success on Steam Greenlight?

However, Adversary chose to try their luck with Steam Greenlight instead. So i wish them the best of luck with that =) As for “Red Cobra” and my thoughts on it so far.

I think the game looks rather cool. But i have to try the game myself before i make any further statements on the matter.

About Red Cobra:
A large organization known as G.R.I.P. (Global Repression and Imprisonment Patrol) has started occupying nations around the world by force. A small group of nations known simply as the Allied Nations, have started to rebel against G.R.I.P.

You play as a pair of elite soldiers as they embark on a suicide mission to stop a nuclear strike before it’s too late.

The core of Red Cobra is shooting 360 degrees in a twin-stick fashion. Sprinkled throughout the game will be “Metroidvania” exploration levels as well as environmental and boss puzzles. Objects can be manipulated by picking them up, dropping them, or shooting them. Red Cobra will be heavy on environmental obstacles as well.
