Fans of retro games will want to check out 1993, a game first created by four friends in Sweden circa… 1993, and now up for release in 2014 on Steam Greenlight.
You can check out the trailer here, which promises classic side-scrolling shooter gameplay and some impressively lovely retro graphics.
”All graphics was done, and it was only code that was missing. That made it possible to keep the game 100% original.” says Krister Karlsson, Game Designer at Modesty, and continues ”The only thing added to the game is an engine that works on today’s systems and a title that we felt made better sense.”
According to the official website:
”The game play is straight on - action packed shoot ‘em up filled with shiny metal gear to grab and explore. Here’s what’s in store:
* 12 Ships to choose from
* 25 Different weapons
* 3 Power levels for each of them
* 5 Different worlds
* 7 Bosses
* Designed for up to 4 simultaneuos players on screen"
