Berlin, Germany – Berlin based and venture capital funded mobile gaming studio Hardscore Games today announces the release of update 1.10 for their strategic multiplayer game Star Admiral. This version includes a rare feature in the mobile world, a direct integration of the Twitch SDK, which allows every player with a Twitch account to stream their gameplay to a worldwide audience, using their built-in microphone and camera. The update also features ten new units, which introduce completely new mechanics into the game. Hardscore Games also has been busy polishing the whole experience, introducing new sound effects, improved graphics and better performance especially on older devices like iPhone 4 and iPad 2.
Highlights of version 1.10:
* Twitch integration – live gameplay streams from everywhere
* In-app browser to see other players streams

By building on well established card game mechanics and adapting them to the mobile platform, Star Admiral creates a new class of competitive games for smartphones. By combining deep strategic freedom, stunning 3D art and a little bit of luck every battle fought in “Star Admiral” becomes a hugely satisfying experience. Star Admiral is Free To Play, but more importantly it’s also Free To Win. “Players will not hit a pay wall or be able to buy units other users can’t.
