The release of Sven Co-op version 5.25 marks a very important milestone in the development of the game. As many of you know, Sven Co-op's development started all the way back in 1999 and we would like to honour that legacy by creating a very special COLLECTORS EDITION of our latest instalment! We're proud to present:
Since the game was originally created last century we're going back to the standard IBM compatible-computer medium and release the game on 5.25" floppy disks! You might not know it, but chances are that you are currently reading this news post on an IBM compatible computer! That means you only have to dust off your 5.25" floppy drive, connect it to your Windows 10 PC and you're ready to go!
Of course, we can't be sure which type of drive you own, so users can choose between DS-HD (1,2mb) and DS-DD (360kb) floppies. We're currently gathering up as many floppies as we can find, because a DSHD release alone already needs 1.692 floppies. We're currently in contact with 3M to place orders for LD floppies, since those will require 6.112 disks per user.
We're currently accepting preorders for this amazing collectors edition, so head over to our registration page and pre-order your copy today!
Sven Co-op is a co-operative game originally based around Valve Software's Half-Life. In this game players must work together against computer controlled enemies and solve puzzles as a team.
While Sven Co-op is similar to Half-Life with similar weapons, monsters, and characters, the difficulty has been increased to suit team play.
Sven Co-op's levels are set as missions and are generally separate from each other. Many missions span several maps and some are collected together in a series. The aim of most levels is to reach the end or to achieve an objective -- obtaining a high score is not essential to beat a level, it's just part of the fun.
