Rockin Android Bringing Japanese Shmups to Steam

If you have not heard of Rockin`Android, they like to bring over those crazy hard shmups from Japan to the rest of the world. GDN has reviewed several (Gundemonium Recollection Review (PS3), GundeadliGne Review (PS3))

Now, they have announced that they are bringing the most Japanese of genres to Steam and the PC.

The first titles available for download will be the Gundemonium Collection, a trilogy of arcade-style scrolling shoot-’em-up games, set in a steampunk world of alchemy and demonic invasion. The collection includes three full games: Gundemonium Recollection, GundeadliGne, and Hitogata Happa.

The Steam release of these games will include exclusive new features. First, optional remixed and enhanced in-game soundtracks by DM Ashura (of Dance Dance Revolution fame) and talented up-and-coming artist, Woofle, are now included. The new soundtracks have the enthusiastic approval of the series’s creator, Murasame. Second, Rockin’ Android has upgraded GundeadliGne to include online cooperative play support through Steam, as previous versions only supported local play. Third, Steam achievements will be included with all three games. The Gundemonium Collection will be available for download on Steam on September 27, 2011 for $9.99 USD. It will also be possible to purchase the games individually for $3.99 USD each. More games from Rockin’ Android will be available on Steam at later dates.
