Syder Arcade is a faithful tribute to shmups in general and to the classic Defender in particular. It feels like a lost classic with its challenging oldschool gameplay that impresses with fantastic 2.5D graphics and tight controls. Highly recommended for any shmup nut!

Honestly, who isn’t a fan of some awesome side scrolling space shooter action? I can’t see a reason why it hasn’t been greenlit already!

A chrome-plated supercharged gunship of a shmup, and I can see Syder Arcade remaining on my hard drive indefinitely.

You might be thinking something like ‘Why would I play a game like this?’ Let us answer your question with another question: ‘why the hell not?’

The brutal difficulty of Syder Arcade may put many folks off from it, but those who are familiar with the genre should be no stranger to adversity. The lush visuals, distinct feel to each ship, and variety of missions bring a lot to the table, and make this a solid addition to any gamer’s diet.

Darkzero.co.uk
A staple in the gaming libraries of longtime and recent gamers alike. Syder Arcade is visually incredible and the music and sound effects only add to the atmosphere that it generates.

Studio Evil is able to bring back feelings we thougt possible only through emulators.

Hey Alh45011, we are still alive, and we are doing our best to keep this project going. We are now far from the top, but we have a plan... kind of :D

Hey Guys! Are you still alive? What is status of the project?

peccato ci tenevo ad avere questo gioco, sembra fantastico, per essere perfetto è perchè è localizzato in italiano l'inglese non lo so proprio :( ma se lo volessi prendere da altre parti dove dovrei cercarlo? grazie ! cmq spero tanto che lo mettano su steam ! sarebbe una piattaforma migliore per le vendite ! almeno credo...io lo già votato posso fare altro per vederlo su steam?

Ciao Giangi, In generale il gioco è uscito un anno fa, ma se intendi su Steam ... chi può dirlo. Greenlight non stà andando proprio bene al momento ... ma mai dire mai.

La versione italiana purtroppo non è in programma. Almeno, allo stato attuale del progetto.
giangi7723 Jun 7, 2013 @ 2:21am 
ma quando esce? e una localizazzione in italiano sarà mai fatta?

If you like shoot 'em up you need SYDER ARCADE on your collection: it's AMAZING.
It's also damn hard ^_^ so: be prepared.
...and take a look to the gfx: AWESOME.

Damn DeathSnake, I know ... it sucks :(

If we manage to get the game on steam on our own, trough greenlight, we are able to guarantee that there will be keys for everyone. Well at least everyone we can track, and we are 100% sure we can track purchases from our website :)

Why still no greenlight :/
Question: If I buy it on our page, can I get then later the steamkey?
