This week's CORA features less subscriptions and more co-op. Always more co-op.

Jamestown Plus, the PS4 version of co-op shmup Jamestown, is dropping on PS4 today, months earlier than originally anticipated. Not to be confused with a simple console port, Jamestown Plus is introducing new content to the game so both veterans and newcomers can all find something new to enjoy.

We loved Jamestown when it was released on PC back in 2011. The indie shooter by developer Final Form Games absolutely emodied co-op gameplay through and through.

Remember, remember the fifth of... well, you know the rest. Indie developer Final Form Games, designer of the spectacular four player co-op 'shmup Jamestown, certainly does. They've announced today on their website that the first DLC for the game will be hitting soon, and it brings with it a new ship and perhap a few other surprises based around the historical event of November 5th...

This week in Indie-Ana Co-Op, we sit down with Tim, Mike, and Hal from Final Form Games to play through their 4 player co-op PC 'shmup, Jamestown.
