You mean it's kinda bad without it? ;)
Anyway, no, there will not be online multiplayer in Sky Force Reloaded.

That's for sure. Unfortunatelly it's a really difficult task for a game of this kind (with such a high number of moving objects on the screen), even more so since the game wasn't designed for this in the first place.

I'm pretty sure a certain person will soon visit this thread and recommend you his shmup game with online multiplayer ;)

Best regards,
Peter.

Hello Peter,

Have you seen "Hawk: Freedom Squadron" ? They copied a lot of features form SFR, added some variety for drones, and a coop multiplayer. Their game is full of bugs, hundreds of players complain about it, but they are thriving and making a lot of money.

Please, think again about coop multiplayer. It seems that ugly "Hawk" is the only game in this niche (online coop plane-based vertical SHMUP), and I'm sure a lot of us would love to support a "Sky Force online".

Hi, no need to report this on more than one thread. I'm sure if we added online multiplayer we'd have hundreds of complaints too ;) As for Hawk itself, it's a pretty solid shoot'em up. No need for hate.

Thanks for the fast reply.

Actually, I'm not a Hawk hater. I've been playing that game for a few months after having completed everything in SFR mobile. At that time I was looking for something like SFR, and there were in-game Hawk ads quite often, then I gave it a try and it was a good surprise.

As you said, Hawk is doing fine. The point here is: Hawk is making a considerable sucess being a game with a lot of features copied directly from the Sky Force series (many planes, drones, rescues, power ups, cards, etc). The "similarities" are everywhere. Unfortunately, they don't offer the same quality as SFR (by far).

I have been talking for months with players form the Hawk community (discord/reddit/fb). Not surprisingly, the majority of such players have played one or more games from the Sky Force series. All of these guys agreed that they only left Sky Force because there was nothing else to accomplish after getting all medals. Also, we always agreed that Sky Force could be the ultimate SHMUP if it could offer an online coop multiplayer, and an "infinite progression system", like Hawk.

From what I have seen, there are hundreds of players that would love to spend their money in a quality game like Sky Force if it could have the same features offered by Hawk today (yes, I'm talking about in-game purchases). I know lots of players that spend tens of USD monthly buying in-game stuff in Hawk....and I assure you they would love to bring that money to a Sky Force online. A lot of people complain about Hawk because the company behind it (my.com) has being doing a terrible job with their customer support. Also, they have changed key features of the game and/or removed content players paid real money for. It's a long story... all the details are available at Hawk's subreddit.

In short, what I'm telling you is that there is a niche for an online coop plane-based shmup (with an infinite story and progression system, like Hawk) being explored by a game company that has copied plenty of Sky Force features.... and that there are hundreds of players out there that would love to quit Hawk and come back to a "Sky Force online". .I am not making any money out of it, but your company certainly would. Infinite Dreams is well know between shmup players, and this "Sky Force online" could very likely be an instant sucess.

Maybe you could give the idea a second thought.

Best regards,
