Makes with the working
Venn:
- Had to manually set windowed mode via launch options.
- It likes to randomly hang when Steam overlay is enabled.
- Steam controlla flipped out more than once.
- Online multiplayer is a FSM damned nightmare.
- Hell, even my hosted game somehow managed to suffer lag.
Jordan:
- See thursdays stream for online woes causing le chair to be dinged
- Windowed mode worked in the menu for me
Mike:
- Opened in a window and detected my controller

Shiny / Sounds
Venn:
- Hipster-pixel goodness.
- Nothing to really poop on since it’s very well done.
- Character blindness is legit.
- Didn’t really notice if it had a soundtrack.
Jordan:
- Character blindness is a real problem with this game, especially in multiplayer
- That said, all of the character designs are fun little pastiches of known IP
Mike:
- Only 300mb legit hipster pixel
- Not as clean as Metal Slug, but more variety
Total-
Control
Venn:
- “”Works”” with the Steam controlla for the most part.
- Has a tendency to flip the hell out in the overworld map.
- When it’s not being an arse everything is logically laid out and plays well enough.
Jordan:
- No real issues with controls
- Mind you, if you’re using a DS4 paired as a steam controller, you need to keep steam overlay on
Mike:
- X360 worked flawlessly
Total-
FUN
Venn:
- Eh, multiplayer is a bit of alright but spending 20min figuring out how to get everyone connected sucks a LOT of the fun out of it.
- I think this is better suited for local coop.
- Did I have a good time? Eh, didn’t hate it but really does nothing new.
- I like the parody characters and it has a good sense of humour all around.
Jordan:
- I had fun playing it
- The couch co-op experience is pretty solid, and despite the online mode being very buggy
- When network multiplayer works, it is pretty fun
- Even single player isn’t all that bad.
- It’s a megaman style shooter with destructable environments and fun characters. All and all a pretty fun time
Mike:
- I’ll play this for hours
- Forced char switches are annoying
- Explosions blood and gore, what’s not to like?
