Originally released in June 2011, Shadows of the Damned invited gamers to assume the role of Garcia, a hard-as-nails, leather-clad, motorcycle-riding professional demon hunter who finds his true love kidnapped by vengeance-seeking demons. As he explores the furthest reaches of the netherworld, Garcia battles through Hell and back, with danger and turmoil around every corner. Gamers will find themselves challenged by demented puzzles and thrust into gruesome battles with vile and deformed creatures that can only come from the darkest recesses of Hell.

In addition to the Shadows of the Damned cosplay contest, Grasshopper Manufacture recently released a six-and-a-half-minute vlog highlighting their adventures at this year's PAX West in Seattle. Join Grasshopper James and the team as they brave the massive convention halls to play rad games, meet with awesome fans, and eat expensive-ass burgers – all in the name of SCIENCE! (Definitely not to screw around on a free trip overseas...)
