Sneak Peek of Episode 2: Shaking the Hive
We want to give you an update about the second episode of Blues and Bullets, which is coming by the end of this year.
On this second episode, Eliot Ness continues his search for the location of Al Capone’s granddaughter and the rest of the kidnapped children.

Blues and Bullets on sale on July 23!
Starting July 23, 2015, PC Windows users will be able to play the first chapter of Blues And Bullets for $4.99!
Blues And Bullets is one of the most awaited games in the world-wide gaming community. Its story allows you take the role of the famous Eliot Ness, 20 years after he arrested the notorious criminal Al Capone.
The action takes place in the fictional city of Santa Esperanza, where a retired Ness runs a diner where police and other law agents frequent. Aesthetically, Blues And Bullets touts an impressive graphic style based in classic American comics and noir fiction style. The script has been written by Josué Monchán, the same writer that created the script from Runaway and Yesterday, among other great graphical adventures.
The music has been written by the multi awarded compositor Damian Sánchez, from the music studio Sonotrigger, and the main theme has been composed and interpreted by the Spanish singer Ïza. For the voicing talent, the title has used Doug Cockle (Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher 2,3) as Elliot Ness, and Jules de Jongh (Faith from Mirrors Edge), an important character that will appear later in the chapter. This title is our most ambitious game yet, and through storytelling and music, it will take you to the deepest and darkest parts of a tortured soul. Visually it will immerse you in a realistic comic world with a taste of German Expressionism.
We began the project in 2009 at our university, and it received an honorable mention in the student category at IGF 2010. We want that our game to be a title that all the players of the world can play, and for that reason the first chapter will be at the reasonable price of $4.99. Players that would like to play the entire game can pick up the entire season for $19.99, which includes 5 chapters. 10% cheaper the first week on Steam!
