Cole Jefferies is currently working on an indie stealth detective game, called Shadows of Doubt. This game is in pre-alpha stage and Cole has just released a video, showing 20 minutes of gameplay footage from it.
Shadows of Doubt is a first-person detective stealth game set in a fully-simulated neo-noir city. In this game, there’s a serial killer on the loose, and it’s up to you to catch him by any means necessary. Players can sneak, tail, hide, hack and lock-pick in order to achieve their goals.
Players can also break into apartments, rifle through secret documents and hack security systems. The entire world will be fully simulated and each citizen will have an apartment, a job, a daily routine, favourite things to do, places to go, and people to interact with.
Shadows of Doubt has graphics that will remind you of both Minecraft and Cube World. My guess is that it’s easier to create a world looking a bit blocky with the emphasis on its atmosphere. Still, it looks really cute and that’s perhaps what really counts at the end of the day.
Below you can find the game’s key features.
Shadows of Doubt Key Features
- Every room in the entire city is able to be explored. Lose yourself in an incredibly detailed sci-fi/noir world.
- Open-ended gameplay: How you achieve your objective is up to you.
- Powerful procedural generation will mean your city, it’s buildings, addresses and citizens will be completely unique to your game experience.
- Events unfold as a result of interaction between the AI citizens. The killer could be anyone, hiding anywhere.
- Locking-picking, hacking, sneaking, climbing. Level up your skills and become a master of stealth.
Enjoy!

“Every room in the entire city is able to be explored. Lose yourself in an incredibly detailed sci-fi/noir world.”
This point alone, screams “avoid”. There is zero chance that this point can have any depth or care involved in it, and will likely be some random generation garbage.
So tired of this “one person” shovelware that over promises, and colossally under delivers.
OMFG EVERY SECOND IS BLUR AND FILTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH INDIES ARE MADE BY CUCKS AND SJW`S WHO ACTUALLY THINK THIS IS GRAPHICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got bored pretty fast, at least release a minecraft texture pack for it so it looks good.
Oh boy, another indie FPS creates by one person. They’re beginning to look like twenty comedians inadvertantly “stealing”, it’s become all the same sh*t st this point.
Who cares.. John I know you either have a liking of these Indie games but god damn, enough is enough. This platform has so many more deserving Indie games that you could be highlighting with a spotlight.
Not this trite awful nonsense.
Looks like it has potential.
