Remember the old-school days where Action RPG’s ruled the gaming world? Well this game aims to bring that back with some modern day swag. Indie developer Pixel Ferret’s new title, Secrets of Grindea, looks to make a name for itself in the gaming scene through Steam Greenlight and Desura PC platforms.
As of right now you can pre-order SCHAR: Blue Shield Alliance on PC digital distribution service Desura. The game is available in two flavors - Standard Edition and Digital Special Edition. The Special Edition of the game includes the soundtrack, printable manual, ship blue prints, crew logs, and concept art. SCHAR: BSA is a co-op twin stick shooter created with involvement from current and former Co-Optimus staff members. It's also available on Xbox Live Indie Games.
