Have you ever wondered what it would be like to run your very own criminal syndicate, but were too afraid to do the time for the crime?
Do you find the idea of breaking bad and making a killing off an illicit blue substance appealing, but are scared your rivals might take you on a one way trip to the desert?
With its golden beaches and luxurious hotels Crime Coast might look like paradise on earth, but beneath the surface lies a world of criminal intrigue where underworld bosses go head to head for total control.
Pixel Squad invites you to join the fray in June 2015 on iOS, Windows Phone, and Android to see if you have what it takes to beat the competition and emerge as king of the gangsters. With a variety of specially-trained henchmen under your command and an arsenal of the most powerful weapons on the black market to deploy, you too could build a criminal empire to be proud of.
Who says crime doesn't pay?

Crime Coast began life in 2013 as the pet project of Will Mallouk after he became intrigued by the idea of making a gangster-themed tower defense strategy game. Soon realising that this was a job for more than one person, he pestered his friend and former colleague Krzysztof Nowak to come on board and take on the artistic duties. Before long they were joined by another artist industry veteran Paul Trenchard, completing the core team.
After successfully bidding for financial assistance from Creative England and getting support from Microsoft, Pixel Squad proudly transformed itself from a hobby project into a bona fide independent video game production.
Having grown up next door to one of Brazil's notorious slums and even been kidnapped, it's safe to say Will knows a thing or two about crime. When he isn't busy programming he's hard at work as the co-founder of app developers Wet Productions, Fungameco, and now Pixel Squad.
Krzysztof started dreaming about working in the games industry when he got his hands on an Atari 128 XL and hasn't looked back. He's been following this dream for over 9 years and has been lucky enough to work with some of the most talented people in the UK. Oh, and he does some 3D art as well. When he's not working on games Krzysztof enjoys dabbling as a hobbyist chef and dog trainer, although never at the same time
Paul Trenchard's first entrepreneurial enterprise came as a young boy when he collaborated with his brother on a Discworld-related “play by mail” game. Terry Pratchett praised them for their ingenuity but soon put the project to rest to protect his copyright, so Paul decided to clock up hundreds of hours on Age Of Empires instead. 12 years later and after working on a diverse range of titles including Crysis 3 he's making games of his own.
After working in the games industry for 12 years Andy Dilks moved into freelance writing, contributing articles to a variety of websites. He also appeared in a film with Jean-Claude Van Damme and believes that life probably does get better than that, although Dolph Lundgren still hasn't returned any of his calls.
