Play Pteroglider for free

Pteroglider in play
You can now download Codeminion’s space shoot ‘em up game Pteroglider for free. Whether this is good news or not is debatable. The co-owner of Codeminion, Maciej Biedrzycki, is offering the full retail version of the game for download through the Codeminion Casual Game Harmony blog. The game was originally released in April, 2004 and sold a whopping 32 copies worldwide.

Biedrzycki also talks a bit about Pteroglider in the blog entry, discussing why it failed. He states that the DirectX 9 driver requirement, high difficulty level, awkward level design and controls that Biedrzycki even admits take hours to master are just some of the reasons why people didn’t take to the shooter. He also mentions the game’s few good points (it was released on time and looks pretty) and offers instructions for getting started if you download.
