The publisher, "Activision" (we've never heard of them – probably a really artsy two-man studio in Canada somewhere) needs a little more exposure for this game, so the multiplayer features will be free to download and play (http://store.steampowered.com/news/7820/) starting this Thursday, April 26, through the rest of the weekend, for anyone with a Steam account.

So if you've got some free time this weekend, maybe give the game a download (http://store.steampowered.com/app/115300/)and give some struggling indie developers a little bit of your attention for once. Who knows – maybe if the weekend goes well, this "Activision" will be encouraged to enter a competition or two. It could be the next Independent Games Competition (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/10/03/activision-teams-with-indiecade-for-second-independent-games-com/) finalist in waiting!
