Timeslip Softworks who created the cool space themed shooter Deadstone has just released its new game Vigilantes Alpha which is a crime themed, turn based RPG. You can check out the game’s current state in the videos below and better yet try out the alpha for yourselves free of charge over at Indie DB.

About Vigilantes:

The city’s going to hell. On the streets and behind closed doors, the Mafia infiltrates and corrupts the civic power structure. Gun crazy paramilitary Survivalists wreak havoc, while flat out crazy Church of the Final Exodus acolytes roam, stealing anything that isn’t bolted down, and burning anything that is. Enter Sam Contino.

Run surveillance to locate the criminal threat, and launch tense, tactical operations against the criminal underworld. Take down criminals with fluidly animated hand to hand combat, a variety of close combat weapons, firearms, and explosives. Forge Sam Contino into the ultimate vigilante with the deep UPLIFT character development system, and call in other vigilantes for backup. Purchase or craft a variety of weapons and equipment, and enjoy a carefully crafted story supported by first rate artwork and quality voice acting.

Vigilantes is currently available as a free alpha offering a slice of polished gameplay. Vigilantes is currently available for Windows on Indie DB; Mac and Linux versions will be released at a later date.
