Korion and Andrade Games join forces to bring „1917 – The Alien Invasion DX“ to Nintendo Switch this week

Ludwigsburg, 18 June, 2018 — Korion Games published the release date for the Nintendo Switch version of Andrade Games‘ genre jewel “1917 – The Alien Invasion DX”

A feast for nostalgics and a furious ride for beginners of the genre: The newest rendition of this memorization “Bullet Hell” shooter presents itself in a completely new light on the Nintendo Switch. With special adaptations for the portable system and the addition of a cooperative multiplayer, it also packs a lot more content than the initial release two years ago. "I am glad to see 1917 DX on Nintendo Switch - the ultimate Shoot 'em Up machine.“, developer Sebastian De Andrade says, hinting at the origins of the genre on Nintendo platforms.
All levels come with increasing difficulty and with a boss fight at the end - the heart of the game. Different airships, weapon types and special attacks are necessary to successfully stop the alien invasion. The more numerous the masses of annihilated alien adversaries are, the more glorious the victory is scored.

This release on Nintendo Switch is now the definitive edition of the game that both challenges hardcore players and, with the help of the coop mode, also helps beginners entering the genre. "It is a challenging game, but with enough patience and level memorization you will beat it", Andrade emphasizes. The NIntendo Switch version will be available in Europe, Australia and North America on 22 June, 2018.

Hello mutant slayers,

the trading cards for "SturmFront - The Mutant War: Übel Edition" are now available and should be unlockable for you.

All the best!
Sebastian de Andrade

First update fixes:

- Typos.
- Gem hit box now bigger.
- Attack button in main menu should be centered.
- Boss 1 collision fixed.
- Chain mechanic.
- New Score balancing.
- New Enemy balancing.

Not done:

- Fps problem when shooting.
- All sounds and songs mixed.

The new mechanic:

In the old version (v 1.2), playing the game defensevly was the best way to survive and get a highscore.

This is a game about ATTACK not about DEFENCE. In the free version there was a "checkpoint system" where the player had to run and collect power ups with energy. By going out of energy, Siegfried exploded.

I didn't want to include this mechanic because it's based on an relic from the arcade days. The timer was needed that if somebody left the arcade cabinet the game automatically refreshes back to the main screen.

Based on this desig I have included now a classic chain mechanic. It was easy to include because i always design my levels with an virtual clock. So i had just combine the clock with the scoring mechanic and now we have a game, where the ATTACK gives you more points then the DEFENCE.

But if you are not a highscore hunter, you can still enjoy the game in an defence oriented playstyle.

The game is out now. We were working really hard to keep the promise by releasing it on August 11th. If you want to purchase the OST, please wait until next week. But if you want just buy the game, you can get it now.

Have fun with the mutant sloughter and i cant wait to get some feedback.

Hello mutant killing fanatics,

this week was a hard crunch time and we are basicly done with the game. But it will take a few days until we can release "SturmFront - The Mutant War: Übel Edition" on Steam.

We are aiming for next week. Until then you can play some classics on mame that were an inspiration for "SturmFront" for example:

- Outzone
- Smash TV
- Ikari Warriors
- Shock Troopers

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

The German Crust Metal band Hellknife releases a new music video in cooperation with the German indie game developer Sebastian de Andrade.

Both are living in the area around Mannheim and both are into uncompromising art. While Hellknife is playing hardcore Heavy Metal, the game studio Andrade Games is producing classic shooting games in the style of the 90s arcade machines.

Indie developer Sebastian de Andrade tells:
"I saw Hellknife at the Rhein Neckar Metal Festival X and was instantly enthusiastic about that we are speaking the same artistic language. Their newest cover artwork shows the Mannheim water tower, skulls and a heavy tank, and I immediately realized that we had to carry out a joint project, because one level of my current game "SturmFront - The Mutant War: Übel Edition" takes place in Mannheim.”

"SturmFront The Mutant War: Übel Edition" is the 2nd game by developer studio Andrade Games, set to release on August 11th. It is a sequel to the 2016 shoot 'em up game "1917 - The Alien Invasion DX", which is also available on Steam.

In addition Hellknife singer Ralf Keitel:
"Arcade action games and Crust / D Beat music match perfectly through the energy and hardness of the two art forms. When Sebastian asked us if we would make our music available for his new game, we were like fire and flame. Our expectations have been surpassed: it is a perfect symbiosis of handmade music and handmade graphics. "

Hellknife is active since 2015 and publish their music on Bandcamp.de. Their newest album is even available as vinyl: https://hellknife.bandcamp.com/

Regarding Heavy Metal, Sebastian de Andrade said:
"I love Heavy Metal and classic action games, but since I do not have the talent to play a guitar, I
am developing my very personal kind of Heavy Metal as a programmer and comic artist."

Hellknife will perform on Sunday the 6th of August with the Grindcore giants "Napalm Death" in Weinheim.
