Syder arcade is a "Defender like arcade game". This because it seems that if you say "soot'em up" everyone say "shooters are dead, man".
This is the first game by Studio Evil, a small game studio based in Bologna, Italy. The game was built with the intention of making a space shooter with a old-style flavor with an heavy graphic impact. We came up with a full 3d environment and 2d gameplay.
All you can see in this screenshot is realtime, even the planet with vortex and atmospheric scattering.
The game is in Beta stage, we are close to the final release.
First platforms will be Win/OSX, but we will port the game on IOS and Android after the first release.
Building this game let us dig deep in Unity3D and unfortunately in it's dark side.
We spent a huge amount of time dealing with bugs and trying to figure out how to get things work properly. We found that Unity3D is still a great choice if you are trying to cover more platforms with less effort, but things are never easy as they seems and when you try to bend a game engine to your needs you could get hurt.
Finally, we will be pleased to gather some other testers for the last Beta stage. If you want to join please drop me a pvt message.
