Hello community!

It's been a while since our last announcement, but finally we have a chance to come back and give you an exciting update. As some of you may already know, we recently announced Syder Reloaded, a remastered and improved release of Syder Arcade for Nintendo Switch.

A few years after the initial release of Syder Arcade we had to abandon the project, as the size of our team at the time made almost impossible to split our efforts between many projects. However, even if we couldn't schedule official updates, we never forgot this title and the community behind it. The Syder universe has a special place in our cold and evil developers' hearts, and so we kept slowly and secretly working on this game. Every time one of us had some extra energy, we put it in fixing bugs, upgrading old code and adding new things, between all the projects that keep our company afloat.

It was an unpredictable and unreliable process, but we finally got to a point all our extra work took shape. The stars finally aligned, and Syder Reloaded for Nintendo Switch was born. This is a very good chance for us to go back to our old shmup and make up to you for our absence. Now, we are unable to announce anything official for Steam yet, but we are actively looking at all the options we have to make this happen in the best possible way for all Syder Arcade fans.

So, stay with us a little longer, starfighters!
And thank you for all your continued support over these years. If you are interested in what is new in Syder Reloaded, take a look at the website or follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

We are excited to announce that Syder Arcade is now part of the 9th Humble Bundle for PC and Android! Paying above the average, you will get nine DRM free games for PC and Android. All the games in the bundle are available on Steam and you are free to choose how much you want to pay for all of them.

We also just released a small patch to fix some achievement bugs reported by the users. The patch includes:
- Death Dealer III and Dodge This achievements fix;
- Fixed a bug that was preventing some enemy waves to spawn in Shield Nebula and War Stories levels;
- Unepic baby dragons pods have now slightly less health;
- Overseer wraiths pods now fire orange bullets instead of white bullets;
- The Overseer has now a cast animation when firing its special weapon.

In the next few days, we will finally align Syder Arcade version on all the other platforms to the Steam release. We will release a bigger update that includes new content and fixes very soon, so follow us on Facebook, Twitter to know whats coming next.
