Celebrated indie shooter Intrusion 2 is now on Steam

1:00 PM on 09.14.2012

Celebrated indie shooter Intrusion 2 is now on Steam photo

Celebrated? Well, at least by me. I gave it one of our highest rated reviews of the year and for good reason: IT'S AWESOME! And now that it's on Steam for $7.99. You "Ugh, I only buy Steam games"-people have no excuse not to buy!

A gentleman reviewer never senselessly gushes about a game twice so I'll just quote my old review here:

It is a meeting point between old game design and new, with every other moment punctuated with some of the most thrilling level and boss design to grace the genre. As improbable as it may sound, this game made by one guy not only stands up to the classics, it is every bit as good as Gunstar Heroes and Contra

For you cheapskates, I'll be giving out codes for the game on my Twitter, later today.

Neat. Start spooging those codes at a GMT friendly time good sir and I may see if I can grab it. If not, to payday I shall ride!

Hasney

Well then? START SPOOGING!

PhilKenSebben

Damn right celebrated. Well, it damn well should be.

Dave Oshry

Buy. This. Game.

NikSG

Wow this looks amazing...Man. Will get ASAP.

Nitex

I enjoy Contra. Will check it out.

Script

Just played the demo. It is pretty fun and much improved over the original! It reminded me a bit of Half-Life 2, since physics have an important role on gameplay.

PhilKenSebben

Does it have achievments now? I might double dip. Bought this awhile ago, non steam.

PrinceHeir

definitely a combination of Hard Corps(the PSN/XBLA not Contra) as well as Shinobio's scarf :P

rokNrolenemyNo1

Um, that screenshot happened JUST like that in Contra: Shattered Soldier...I'm assuming it's some poorly veiled homage...? Looks fun, but hopefully there are some original ideas in there too.

Spencer Hayes

Dude, this sounds Bitchin' radical. I can't wait to try this out.

jamesesdad

Played the demo, found the floaty loose controls very unappealing, using mouse&kb, and controller. After having to restart the demo twice because the games physics prevented me from progressing, I uninstalled it. Probably wouldn't play this for free

Lucien Dark

Aw man, I have no Twitter :-( Still, I shall pick this up at some point in the future anyways, it looks awesome.
