Syder Reloaded is a furious shoot 'em up inspired by side-scrolling European classics from the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Syder Reloaded revives the Syder series in this love-letter to 90s Amiga shmups with upgraded graphics and refined gameplay. Challenging levels, a fleet of ships and a motherload of alien invaders. Get back to your roots and curse at your monitor in this skills-first shooter.

The game features 8 playable ships, a 6-level campaign mode, and 3 survival and challenge levels. Syder Reloaded is an enhanced version of Studio Evil's first title, Syder Arcade, and includes an improved arsenal of weapons, revamped visuals, re-designed levels and a new scoring system. The game stays true to its old-school roots, with 20 retro graphic filters inspired by C64, ZX Spectrum, Amiga HAM and EGA, and an Amiga-style soundtrack.

Syder Reloaded comes after years of stealth improvements, and to celebrate all the long-standing fans of Syder Arcade the team is planning a very special offer, dedicated to them.

The event will take place from 7th to 13th October, during which it will be possible to engage in one of the Challenge levels with 5 of the playable ships.
