After getting a major update earlier this year adding four player co-op support, Nation Red has received another update adding a new map, more achievements for co-op and various fixes.  The new map is called Oil Platform and the 7 new achievements are only obtainable in online or local co-op.  The tweaks to the game include improved co-op performance for online games and adding an in game text chat option.  After all - communication is key in co-op.

Indie PC twin stick shooter, Nation Red, has just received an update via Steam.  The update adds an additional two players in co-op, bringing the total available to 4, as well as a host of other tweaks and balances.  Along with it comes improved multiplayer support for Steam lobbies, friends list, and server browsing - making it that much easier to find co-op games.  Of course...people need to actually be playing the game, something we had a hard time finding during our tests of the update.

Last year Nation Red was released on Steam, an indie developed title, players were tasked with surviving swarms of zombies in traditional top down shooter gameplay.  I had tried the demo out, and while impressed with it graphically, I felt the one key item missing was co-op play.  Now almost a year later the game has a brand new update adding in numerous co-op modes for two players both locally and online.
