I loved playing this game with the couple people that joined from twitch (in thebrickanator on twitch). The only downside was there was no indication on how to skip the cut scenes which makes it difficult to understand, and it needs a button to start a rematch. but the game play and graphics were perfect! I can see this being a really exceptional game given some play testing :)
I had fun playing with thebrickanator and another person from twitch, was a bit confused at first but it became clear soon enough. Seems a bit unbalanced but still enjoyable and looks really great.
I'm very sorry to say but i couldn't play your game! The art looks amazing from the screenshots, and it's incredibly impressive that you put coop and procedural generated levels in, but i just couldn't find a coop partner no matter how long i waited
Loved the intro. Humor and graphics are nice, but the game itself was unlpayable for me for some reson. When it starts, I can see the room and my character, but he doesn't move (lmb does nothing). After a while the screen goes black.

!!! DEV NOTICE !!!
TIPS for players having problems:
- TO PROGRESS DIALOGUE, press on it!!! (ALL players need to do this for the game to continue)
- screen went black (host left the game, you have to restart)
- I've noticed that if you wait long on dialogue, the game tends to bug out, I am investigating. Try to read faster if you can :)
- Also if you have a friend that you play with, please try to play 2-3 times. It's a bit random at times, but it's possible to finish the game, if you follow the tips.
Hope that helps!

Very nice game, only a little bit hard to understand at first.
Can't play it. Either it's a bug or there is no players, tried 3-4 times.

Awesome game. Really cool graphics, good mood and really got gameplay. There's a lot to improve so the game can become even better. Keep up the good work!
Played with Skorpyo and karlipoppins from the irc. It was fun how you could come up with mini strategies and just hope the others did what you wanted haha :D
It could use more content and strategy, but it's impressive that you made multiplayer in only 48 hours! I think you should keep working on this if you want to. Art, sound, music, gameplay, all feels very polished.
Well done, keep it up!
Really cool entry! I absolutely loved the graphics, the music and the level loading where parts are shuffled together. Gameplay was pretty fun at 3 coop, it's super rare in LD. My suggestion would be to get some feedback on when it's your turn (I got skipped a couple of times while looking at some game details) and also making sure the text is rotated to the player's view to make it easier to read. Other than that, top notch :)

Very interesting concept!
Cool cutscene, wish the game still worked :( I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/9I4q6tJ6Ge8
