Didn't work for me on Chrome!

samoatesgames 2014-12-08 09:31

@alvarop Works for me (Chrome Version 39.0.2171.71 m).
Make sure you allow the Unity plugin when it pops up.
Also make sure you have the latest Unity webplayer version installed.

Or use a good browser ;) I suggest Firefox, or download one of the several other builds available.

The music blends in well with gameplay

Didn't work for me on chrome either (it didn't even ask for the unity plugin in the first place), but it worked fine in the windows downloaded version.

I like the gameplay, the sounds and graphics are funny (not bad though), I just wish enemies wouldn't spawn right next to my people instant-hitting them so often. XD

Feels like a very high quality game! But doesn't add much to the overcrowded genre of dungeon crawlers.

ps: Works fine in chrome with the unity plugin enabled!

Awesome music and very well fitting sound effects for the game. Really liked that theme!

soron 2014-12-08 09:51

Ah, this is MUCH nicer on the psyche than The Binding of Isaac :).

sh1rogane 2014-12-08 09:54

Fun game and good music that blends well.

spacedoubt 2014-12-08 09:56

I love the music. Shifts the mood well between and during battles. Really fun game, too!

customphase 2014-12-08 09:57

I like the addition of second character and controlling them both at the same time is a cool mechanic. Also pretty big assortment of enemies. But overall it lacks some variability. Great music, btw

tuism 2014-12-08 10:12

86580!! Really well made! The sound is a really really nice touch, well done! I especially like the obstacles of the tombstones and the two player avatars, really adds tension when they get split up. Interesting mechanics!

Firstly I was "Srsly, just a binding of isaac game with one room ?" and then, I replay 4 time reaching level 14 at the best ^^

alter 2014-12-08 13:54

"Psew psew psew" is awesome!
Mages are OP =(

tasteslikefuture 2014-12-08 13:55

Super fun game! Love the music, and gameplay is super fun. The mechanic of having both characters move at once adds a unique challenge. Super awesome work!

sfdnetwork 2014-12-08 13:57

Didn't start up. I'm on Chrome, Windows 7 64Bit.

woodecker 2014-12-08 13:58

Its fun to play with both characters at the same time.
Nice graphics, I like Isaac too :D

hadesfury 2014-12-08 13:59

Score : 16650
Great Idea

mahu 2014-12-08 14:01

nice graphics and animations, the gameplay is simple and intuitive. Lacks of sound and music makes it a bit boring. And that mage is a pain in the ass! =) nice game
Why is there a sound toggle button? There is no sound at all

indiestry 2014-12-08 14:02

Not sure if I missed it, but you should propably add an readme so the player doesn´t have to figure out the controls by himself.

acerunox 2014-12-08 14:06

My highscore was 47286. Great audio. I really like the idea of controlling two characters at once.

maesk 2014-12-08 14:26

Great music! Specially at the start of every round. You can feel Isaac's influence here, nice work!

dyn 2014-12-08 14:28

Feel the inspiration by BoI
Nice idea.

tonypai 2014-12-08 14:39

Nice bgm and sound effect! "Hallelujahhh" made me laugh so hard.

So it needs joystick to control the other player?

eruditespirit 2014-12-08 14:48

Nice music, interesting mechanics wrt moving two people at once and tombstones being obstacles.

sirival 2014-12-08 15:22

Nice! Very nice graphics, music and controls. This is very similar to my game too :D

xenosns 2014-12-08 15:59

Nice variation of Isaac!

domicuc 2014-12-08 16:00

Awesome music,good graphics! :) Check my tower defense too x)

dix 2014-12-08 16:24

Nice graphics and awesome music! I was a bit worried that i lost the guy, but :O

insality 2014-12-08 17:28

im a fan of Isaac game and i love you graphics too ;]
so sweety music +
but seems unfair, when a enemies spawn in you position ;)
nice one!

ultravisitor 2014-12-08 17:46

I love the music/sound effects and the music ques are effectively dramatic. Its weird to have two characters but I find it fun dealing with the issues that ensue. It plays really well and feels very complete. Good show!

sam101 2014-12-08 17:55

Nice action shooter game ! I really really liked the music and the Binding of Isaac feeling and the fact that you control two people.

gamepopper 2014-12-08 22:04

Like the music and the co-op!

lonelytimelord 2014-12-08 23:42

Cute graphics, reminds me a lot of The Binding of Isaac

kunonooni 2014-12-09 04:01

that was a really cool game and I like the art style. Music is good too.

daviosmash 2014-12-09 17:06

The music was a lot of fun. Playing alone was a bit harsh, but I could listen to the music and continue playing and the flow was nice, so there's that.

zimennik 2014-12-09 21:26

I just love this music!

endesga 2014-12-09 23:51

awesome game! :D I love it

mrexcessive 2014-12-10 18:10

Hi there. Lol @ Dolce Gusto tool... yer I used Americano and Mocha... Really like the music, very Dusk-til-Dawn, crossed with El Mariachi... Lovely graphics. Liked the Hallelujah on resurrection. Good job!

themeorch 2014-12-11 06:53

Nicely done! The tombstones providing temporary collision actually influenced the gameplay more than I expected (having 2 characters actually influenced it less than I expected, but is still a very cool twist). It's frustrating to have enemies spawn on my or instantly shooting me. Otherwise, this plays super smoothly, and the graphics and audio combine for a great experience!

codecranker 2014-12-11 18:44

Nice game. Reminds me of Binding of Issac :p. I like how the dead enemies get converted into graves.

I think the speed of player movement and higher level enemy bullets are not quite balanced. The later over run the former making it quite hard to dodge.

jacob-peltola 2014-12-19 17:23

Fun game!, I'm a fan of Binding of Isaac so I appreciate the art style. Having two players to worry about while having crosses of dead enemies prevent their movement was interesting and fun; also Satan OP needs nerf

recursor 2014-12-19 19:26

The game did feel a bit like Isaac but still I did like having 2 people to control/protect. I also like the ability to change their formation by getting one stuck on the crosses and moving the other one a bit. Add in some sound effects, weapon types, power-ups, etc and you have a nice little game.
