The game was released worldwide on August 19, 2009. The original script of Shadow Complex was written by comic book writer and Star Trek novelist Peter David.
The game follows Jason Flemming and his new girlfriend Claire, who opts to explore some caverns the two stumble across. When she does not respond to his calls, Jason follows her.

Empire is an hour-long Western television series set on a 1960s 500,000-acre (2,000 km2) ranch in New Mexico, starring Richard Egan, Terry Moore, and Ryan O'Neal. It ran on NBC from September 25, 1962, to May 14, 1963.
In the second abbreviated season, from September 24 to December 31, 1963, it was renamed Redigo after Egan's title character, Jim Redigo, the general manager of the fictitious Garrett ranch in Empire, and reduced to a half-hour.
Egan starred in the series at the age of forty-one, having previously been in the hit film A Summer Place, with the catchy theme song. Redigo was a rare ranch manager, having a Master of Business Administration degree. The ranch was located somewhere in the American Southwest, but the exact location was never pinpointed. The Garretts did have an empire. Besides ranching they were involved in oil, agriculture, and mining. The series has unusually- titled episodes.
Empire also featured 22-year-old Ryan O'Neal, some two years before he gained greater recognition as Rodney Harrington in ABC's Peyton Place. O'Neal, who began acting in 1959, played the son, Tal Garrett. Terry Moore portrayed O'Neal's 33-year-old sister, Connie, who had a romantic interest in Redigo. Their mother and ranch matriarch, Lucia, was played by 53-year-old Anne Seymour (1909–1988).
Empire is the first label release by American metalcore band The Word Alive. It was released on July 21, 2009 on Fearless Records. The album was produced by Andrew Wade and charted at number 15 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers. After this EP, founding drummer Tony Aguilera would be kicked from the band, it is however, the first release with lead vocalist Tyler "Telle" Smith.
The song "Casanova Rodeo" was originally a part of the unreleased The Word Alive EP. After the release of Empire, the track "Battle Royale" became one of The Word Alive's most known and notable songs and was re-recorded for the band's debut full-length album, Deceiver.

Hand or HAND may also refer to:
Hands is the second EP from Brooklyn-based symphonic rock band Emanuel and the Fear and was released via EAT Fear Records in June 2011 following the band's first full-length release, Listen.
The 405 issued a positive review of the band's second EP, declaring "Hands is an EP which demonstrates musicianship at its best...a wonderful mixture of influences, added to its melodies and textures, all add together to create a true good feeling within your heart. Fans of Ben Folds and Nils Lofgren especially should like and admire this record but it has the accessibility for just about anyone to jump in and enjoy – excuse the pun - over and over again." Following the release of the EP, the band toured throughout the UK, including a stop in England to play the End of the Road Festival, where they shared a stage with Joanna Newsom, Lykke Li, Best Coast and Beirut.
"Hands" is a song by English duo The Ting Tings. The song was written by both Katie White and Jules De Martino and mixed by label-mate Calvin Harris. The song has a fast-paced 1980s indie pop sound, similar to the duo's previous songs. The single was released to radio airplay on 18 August 2010 after premiering on the Huw Stephens show on BBC Radio 1 at 9:30 pm; a remix was also be released for free via digital download on 11 October 2010 on the band's Facebook page. The song was performed at the Wireless Festival, as part of the setlist; they were joined with dancers holding signs, saying work, which when flipped around, would say dance. The song debuted at 29 on the UK Singles Chart. The line spoken by Jules at the start of the song, "I don't want to go out. I want to stay in." is a reference to the same line spoken in the David Bowie song "Modern Love".
Speculation about the band's second album began in October 2009, when details were released to the public about the duo writing their next album in Paris, but then moving to an old German Jazz Club to record it. The reason being was that the band wanted a new place to test out what sounded good and what did not: "We did the first album by throwing house parties. We'd try them out on our drunk friends and if they danced we'd go ‘Great, let's carry on!’ We're gonna do the same in Berlin – that's why we've got the jazz club – so we can just stick a big plastic bag over the studio so it doesn't get beer on and experiment on some crazy Berliners."
We come out of the dark
And we hunt for your soul
You can never escape our vampire flair
We will find you in the night
And we show you our world
We bring you immortality
You say you don't believe in a transcental power
You only believe in things that you can see with your own eyes
Believe me, my mortal friend
There's so much more to see
An empire full of pleasures
It's the place for you to be
Don't you want to live forever and don't you want to fly
Like an inocent angel
You will fly up to the sky
You won't grow older and your beauty never fades
Empires will rise and fall
