Steambirds Alliance

Steambirds Alliance was a free-to-play, 100%-cooperative bullet-hell MMO from Spry Fox, the studio that co-created Realm of the Mad God. Set in a steampunk world of anthropomorphic birds fighting an empire of cats, it left beta and launched fully on Steam in August 2019 after nearly six years of development. Despite two major content updates, Spry Fox could not sustain a large enough player base and shut the game down, delisting it from Steam on February 19, 2021.
