STEEL STRIDER
Run & gun action from the makers of GIGANTIC ARMY, SATAZIUS, and Supercharged Robot VULKAISER!## Overview:

STEEL STRIDER is the follow up to the acclaimed GIGANTIC ARMY and pays homage to the great run and gun games such as Turrican and Super Contra, but adds mouse / dual analogue stick-operated weapons!

It is the second half of the twentieth century. A long period of galaxy-wide conflict and turmoil is finally drawing to a close, but skirmishes and large scale crime are still commonplace, some criminal operations possess personnel and armaments equivalent to small armies. The official peace-keeping authorities are insufficiently equipped tackle these threats, and the galactic military lacks the flexibility to effectively neutralize them.

There exists, however, a secret organization that secretly strives to preserve peace in the galaxy: ARGO EXPRESS. When ARGO EXPRESS receives word of emergencies such as distress signals or major crime outbreaks, they dispatch a carrier ship disguised as a freighter to rush to the scene and resolve the situation. STEEL STRIDER is the story of an ARGO EXPRESS operative and Gemini-class MCR (Manned Combat Robot) pilot who troubleshoots emergencies in planets around the galaxy.## Features:

• 4 planets of intense mech-shooting action to clear!
• Mid and end level bosses of gargantuan proportions to take down!
• Four difficulty modes from ‘Easy’ to ‘Insane’ to cater for all skill levels!
• 8 upgradeable weapons with which to mete out galactic justice!
• Jetpack to give your mech satisfying maneuverability and defensive options!
• Keyboard and mouse or dual analog stick controls!
• Achievements, online leader boards, trading cards, and more!
• Outstanding value: only $5.99!!
