Arcade sci-fi shoot 'em up for cooperative play
The developers of the sci-fi arcade shooter Sturmjäger have presented a new trailer detailing the single-screen cooperative mode. The game is created for those who enjoy fast-paced action without unnecessary complications: the rule here is simple — shoot everything that moves, and if it doesn't move, shoot it just in case!
Player-friendly co-op
The main feature of local multiplayer is its focus on fun rather than harsh punishment for mistakes. If one of the players loses all their lives, the "Game Over" screen does not appear. It is enough for the partner to survive alone for about 30 seconds, and the downed pilot will automatically return to battle. This allows participants with different skill levels to play together without frustration.
Improvements following feedback
Following the debut announcement, the creators also took community feedback into account and reworked projectile visibility:
- Bullets are now clearly displayed on top of explosions and environmental effects;
- A distinct black outline has been added to projectiles;
- High-contrast cycling pink color is used for better readability against location backgrounds.
The digital release of Sturmjäger for Nintendo Switch is scheduled for January 14, 2027.
