Hey, I’m Luke—lifelong gamer, midnight-coder and the one-man whirlwind behind Vortex Pixel Gaming. After years of modding Bethesda titles and sketching out wild ideas on napkins, I finally committed to building my own sandbox RPG, City of Shadows—a living metropolis where an adaptive AI villain bends the story to your choices, allies can truly betray you, and every quest line branches like a spider-web. While the game’s still deep in Unreal Engine trenches, I opened this store as both a funding lifeline and a testing ground: every desk mat, RGB headset stand and collectible you see here is gear I personally abuse during 4 a.m. dev sessions. If it survives me, it’ll survive anything on your battlestation.

We’re still a tiny Brisbane outfit—just me, a couple of contract artists and one very opinionated AI prototype I call “V0RT3X” (spoiler: it may end up the game’s final boss). Because every single order helps push City of Shadows closer to launch, I’ve slashed the entire catalogue 50 % off—no timers, no gimmicks, just a thank-you for backing an indie dream before the trailers drop. Grab something today, put it through its paces, and if it doesn’t level up your setup within 30 days, I’ll refund you faster than a stealth archer spamming quick-save.

P.S. Stick around—owners get first-look Alpha keys, exclusive villain lore drops and the chance to name an NPC who might stab unsuspecting players in the back (in-game, of course). Welcome to Vortex Pixel Gaming; let’s build something legendary together.
