16-bit detective thriller Pixel Noir will feature an integrated cross platform save system, allowing owners to "play it on whatever they want with no shortcomings."
"Cross Save is the reason that when you pledge to our Kickstarter, you will receive the game on TWO platforms—a console/PC platform as well a mobile platform," writes developer Kunal Majmudar on the game's Kickstarter page. "And if you have a mobile lifestyle (which apparently 90+% of you do), this is great news for you."
"The Madrid-based (Spain) indie games publisher BadLand Publishing and Southampton-based (New Jersey, the US) indie games developer SWDTech Games, today announced with great delight and excitement that their hard-boiled 16-bit detective RPG "Pixel Noir" is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles in 2023 (the game will launch for the Nintendo Switch in April 2023, and Xbox One and the PS4 sometime in the summer of 2023)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Although it has finally taken a little longer than expected, SWDTech's retro RPG "Pixel Noir" is now available via the Steam Early Access program.

the quality is there usually these 8/16/32 bit devs games aren't very skilled but the pixels/art here is done well

- Well, the game looks pretty darn well-made imo. So I'll give it a fair chance ;)
The development of Pixel Noir, SWD Tech's long-awaited retro RPG, is progressing and, to prove it, its creators have decided to release a preliminary version of the game (with approximately half the content of the final version) through Steam Early Access system (“Pixel Noir” is coming to Steam Early Access during the first week of April).
That looks fantastic! And it reminds me of the 16Bit Shadowrun Games. Almost as if you used the Shadowrun engine and created Top Secret (the RPG table top from the 1980s).
That is a combination that works for me. I am backing this!
The art style is simple but awesome. Will have to get this sometime.
