The Joystiq Indie Pitch: Steel Storm
Indie developers are the starving artists of the video-game world, often brilliant and innovative, but also misunderstood, underfunded and more prone to writing free-form poetry on their LiveJournals. We at Joystiq believe no one deserves to starve, and many indie developers are entitled to a fridge full of tasty, fulfilling media coverage, right here. This week, Michael Lubker shows us how sweet old-school indie gaming can be when it's transferred to the modern age with Steel Storm: Burning Retribution. What's your game called and what's it about? Our game's title is Steel Storm: Burning Retribution and it's about an extraterrestrial invasion and the struggle you find yourself drawn into, between staying alive and emancipating the area from the conquest.
Humble Indie Bundle throws Steel Storm onto the pile
The five games in the Humble Indie Bundle, plus free limited-time Minecraft access, still aren't enough to entice you to pay literally any amount of money? The bundle just got sweetened again, throwing in a free copy of the hovertank shooter Steel Storm. It's included, of course, with all new purchases; if you already purchased the bundle, you can go load up the download page now and collect your free game! In addition to supporting your massive backlog of unplayed games, the Humble Indie Bundle supports the EFF and Child's Play.
