However after few years of success, Wetwood started to loose profits and this led to owners of Wetwood coming up with an idea.

Environment/Level:

The game is set in a abandon shopping centre. The centre itself is falling apart and on the verge on collapse. Many of the stores are closed, forced open or broken into. The centre is filled with dead trees, tiles broken, wire hanging out of the wall and is generally unsafe. It's heavily based off Blanchardstown shopping Centre:
