All Walls Must Fall is a Tech-Noir Tactics game in Berlin 2089 where the Cold War never ended.
Latest Updates from Our Project:
GREENLIT! New stretch goals: DISCRIMINATION and TOILETS
about 7 years ago

Hello Backers! With only 3 days left on Kickstarter, we've been Greenlit on Steam!
Thanks to everyone who voted! This means we will be able to put the game on Steam! For the last few days, we've decided to announce another two stretch goals:
DISCRIMINATION
Discrimination is bad. But if you have ever tried to get into a club, you know it's real. With this stretch goal we want to improve the diversity of our clubber character cast to reflect this. We'll also make this a feature in conversations you'll have with bouncers to get through the club doors. There will be a new mission and room too!
In winter in Berlin, you need a big heavy jacket. But clubs turn up the heat to get people to relax. You need a Coat Checkroom to change into your party outfit and leave your stuff securely. But maybe someone left something useful in their jacket pocket. If you get their coat check ticket, it can be yours.
You know they're here somewhere - but finding them in the crowd can be tricky. The new Identify Targetmission has you scope out the venue for that very special person.
Some eagle-eyed backers might have noticed that our current clubs are rather male-only. And is it me, or are there only one or two faces that repeat over and over? With this update we'll add many new body types, clothing styles and gender options for our cast of clubbers.
But with diversity comes discrimination. Some clubs are pretty picky about their clientele, and enforce not only a dress code but also a certain level of superiority at the door. Some clubs might be for a specific sub-culture, and if you don't match, you're turned away. We'll add a line at the door of clubbers who want to get in, and if your agent doesn't fit, you might need to get on the guestlist first - or find another way inside.
TOILETS
How have we not introduced toilets to the clubs yet! How unrealistic! Everybody knows a video game's critical acclaim stands and falls with the state of its toilets. So if we reach this stretch goal we will addtoilets to the game and add toilet relevant activities for player agents and clubbers. Extra Janitor staff is needed to keep the place in ordnung, and we'll add a new mission type that requires the privacy of a bathroom stall.
We'll add a new room type to the clubs, toilets, complete with all mod cons - stalls, urinals, sinks and in some specialist establishments, showers. Clubbers will visit these rooms as part of their wanderings around the club. The queue for toilets in clubs is always strangely long. What’s up with that?
For your purposes though, a toilet stall represents a place to conduct business in private. Agents will be able to enter cubles alone or with others, and anything can happen in there, from packages changing hands, to wardrobe adjustments, to just conversation.
The new Janitor NPC has a thankless task - cleaning up after all these crazy people. They're sticklers for the rules, and if you take too long using the facilities they'll bang on the door and throw you out of there. Sometimes they'll shut down the whole room to give it a full wipe-down, conveniently erasing any evidence you might've left behind.
Finally, we'll add a new Identity Swap mission to the game. When two people emerge from the stall, can you be sure they are the same two who went in? A helpful stooge can play the part of a target to fool your pursuers and allow you to exfiltrate with minimal fuss.
Once again thank you all so much for your support! Time for a big finish sprint!

Become a Club Promoter, Minister or Ambassador: New Reward Tiers!
about 7 years ago
– Thu, Apr 13, 2017 at 09:04:44 PM
Dearest Backers! Now we're in the last week of the campaign, it's time to unveil our complete set of Reward tiers!
New €100 tier: CLUB PROMOTER
Who needs guestlist when it’s your own party? As the promoter, you name the party and get to choose the poster design. You also get to bring an extra friend to the party with an extra itch.io and Steam key, and get there in style with an unlockable promo car paint job. Your personalised digital Club Promoter ID will include a passcode to unlock your special content for a playthrough! All previous rewards included! Credit mention upgraded to Club Promoter! And of course, all this is also included in the Celebrity tier and new higher tiers!
New Limited Minister Tiers
Have more influence on the world of Berlin 2089 by accepting a position in a Ministry! As Minister, you can help us design new content that will be lovingly created and put in the game for all to enjoy! All Ministers get access to lower tier rewards, including the lower Minister tiers, and, of course, a special Minister car. Your Ministerial ID will ensure that your content shows up in your campaign playthroughs.
€300: Minister of Culture: Design an object! Tell us what additional object should be in the clubs, and one interaction that should be available. Our artist will create a 3D model of your object and it will show up in the game.
€500: Minister of Defence: Design a weapon! Choose from a number of characteristics, sound effects, and one special effect, and we’ll create and tune a weapon from your specification. And of course, give it a name! Non-lethal weaponry is available!
€750: Minister of Foreign Affairs: Design a boss! Choose from a number of character traits, appearance options, and weapons, and we'll create and tune a Boss character from your specification. Come up with a quest that the Boss can give the character as an potential alternative to combat. And of course, give them a name!
€1000: Minister of Foreign Affairs: Design a room type! Either a public-facing room in the club or a secret, hidden, nefarious backroom! Come up with the room’s purpose and what players can do or find in the room!
We'll create props for the room and a number of variations and it will be included in the procedural club generation!
Ambassador Tiers
You are about to leave the English-speaking sector of Berlin! We want to translate the game into as many languages as possible, and also include content into the game that pays tribute to Berlin as a capital city of embassies and spies from the world all over. So with each of these extremely limited rewards we will introduce the relevant embassy, ambassador (that could be you!) and embassy mission to the game! Note that each of these tiers also includes all rewards up to the Celebrity tier and below! So you will also get your own club, portrait, etc. from the Club Owner and Celebrity tiers as well as all rewards from the tiers below them too! Time to live large as an ambassador in Berlin 2089 and do some good for your fellow compatriots as well by getting the game translated to your own language! We have open positions for German, Spanish, French, Russian, Brazilian, Polish, Japanese and Italian Ambassadors! Don't see your language here? Just get in touch and we'll see if we can open an Embassy for you!

Hey everyone!
1000 Backers! Wooohoo!
We're super happy that we can welcome our 1000th backer on All Walls Must Fall! Thank you all so much for your support! Our 1000th backer was actually Simon Cubash who also makes games himself. So if you're gaming on mobile as well, check out his game 'Chicken Jump'!
Finale livestreams
Join us next week for two Live Streams here on Kickstarter! On Tuesday, we'll be joined by our good friend Riad of Maschinen-Mensch, creators of The Curious Expedition. He'll played the game when it was back in a prototype stage last year, and so we'll see what he thinks of it's progress - and of course, we'll be happy to answer your questions and talk about the game together. Join this facebook event to get reminded when we go live!
Then on Wednesday we're going to host a Finale stream for the final few hours of the campaign! We'll play the game some more and count down to the end together! Join this other facebook event to get reminded about when we go live on Wednesday!
Thunderclap
The most important thing for the campaign as we count down to the end is to reach as many people as possible so they know it's now or never to get into the Closed Alpha with us! For this, please join our Thunderclap campaign and lend your support when we fire off a message on social media at the same time! BOOM!
Thanks, Isaac, Rafal, David and Almut, inbetweengames

Triple Agents get the game on Steam, digital wallpapers, closed alpha access on itch.io, the OST, a credit mention, four different personalized digital IDs, an enemy agent with their name, secret messages from STASIS, CTA and Faceless, three different car paint jobs to choose from, a Club NPC with your name, an anonymizing Facelss mask kit and the digital art book!
Celebrities get the game on Steam, digital wallpapers, closed alpha access on itch.io, the OST, a credit mention, six different personalized digital IDs, an enemy agent with their name, secret messages from STASIS, CTA and Faceless, five different car paint jobs to choose from, a Club NPC with your name, an anonymizing Facelss mask kit, the digital art book, a club with your name, a custom drink with your name, a personal portrait in the style of the game and a celebrity NPC with your name and likeness in the game!

Combat, Part 2 - plus more digital artbook details

Hello backers!
Time Travel, amirite?
Last week we put out an imgur post about our story as inbetweengames. On the same day we also put out a blogpost where we talked about how combat works in the game. The imgur post went viral and got over 80 thousand views! The blog post...not so much.
So for part two of the combat post, we're doing it in imgur form! The post details our more advanced time travel techniques, the REWIND and TRACE-BACK, and how they can lead to some interesting and useful mind-bending combat abilities. As before, we'd really appreciate if you all jumped over to imgur and hit the post with an upvote, as that really seems to help it take off and find lots of new people who haven't heard about the game yet.
AND! Whoever identifies the show above correctly and writes their answer in the comments here first gets a free extra Closed Alpha itch key for a friend (backers only)!
Digital Artbook Details
Back from upvoting? Great! Everybody who backs at the Triple Agent tier or above will be getting a copy of the All Walls Must Fall Digital Artbook. Now we have some details about it for you:
40+ pages in pdf format
Containing Concept Art, Sketches, Character Spritesheets and Storyboards
High-Quality 3D Renders
Development Break-downs
Unused Ideas
Development Commentary
Kickstarter Backer's Yearbook (containing the portraits from the Celebrity tier)
... and more!
That about covers all our current rewards - so it's time to make new ones! We'll have new details about extra reward tiers as we head into the final week of the campaign.
Thanks, Isaac, David, Rafal and Almut, inbetweengames
