A colorful 2D action-platformer that feels grim yet whimsical, with a focus on exploration, combat, and local co-op camaraderie.

What players say
Players praise the bright, trippy visuals but many find the combat controls unresponsive and the stun-lock fighting repetitive. Co-op is a highlight, and the game is seen as good value for its price.
