A simple mod featuring a couple of tweaks and partially remastered GUI.
Two small (texture replacement and/or with small gameplay tweaks) mods for Shadowgrounds are now supported on Desura. In fact, these two are the only released ones - although both installments of Shadowgrounds have an extensive modding support, there's very little modding activity from the community itself, and more SG levels than mods saw daylight.
Shadowgrounds is easily moddable, all you need is to copy appropriate game files to your own directory in "Mods" folder and start changing textures, scripts, etc. There's also one hidden flaw - there are no model exporters/importers released.

This is great, Shadowgrounds needs more mods, it's too bad that every other one seems to have gone under.
damn I love top down games, only if I had the engine! tracking for good measure :)
Shadowgrounds source code (of the executable file) is already available.
At least you can download it through Humble Bundle, dunno if they shipped it with other versions.
So you can use even their engine, only their licence disallows any commercial use of it. Shouldn't be any problems with using their source code in noncommercial projects though - and if you are successful, maybe you could strike a deal with them, too. :-)
