The game is an arcade-style 2D side-scrolling shooter and will be developed using\u00a0Unity. It will initially be published for\u00a0PC with a possible release on\u00a0mobile devices. Depending on interest in the project, developing the game in Unity could allow for eventual release on other platforms as well.<\/p>\n<p>This game\u00a0will be a reimagining of a project\u00a0that was in development a few years ago that was never completed or released. It is being recreated from scratch using new assets based on the attempted <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eskimobob.com\/2013\/12\/23\/eskimo-bob-kickstarter-campaign\/\">Kickstarter relaunch<\/a> of Eskimo Bob from last year.
