Everything is best with mates. Running. Dining. Playing roguelikes with snazzy fight and diverse upgrades, even when they do have bizarrely hateful endings which can be so horrendous I can’t keep away from mentioning them on this first paragraph.
What I imply to say is that Caveblazers now has an internet multiplayer mod, and it’s in all probability nice. The mod additionally permits you to allow 360 diploma aiming (quite than 8-directional), and provides a command that skips the early ranges and plops you straight into a store. Just don’t fuss too laborious about successful.
The mod lets as much as 4 gamers blaze collectively, presuming all of them personal the game and an web connection. It additionally works for two-person native multiplayer, although apparently you’ll want “an ultra-wide monitor or a 4K TV”.
That’s talked about on Vadim’s blog post, the creator of each this and comparable mods for Nuclear Throne and Spelunky. It’s a chunky put up, delving into the highs and lows of a year-long venture.
It’s value a learn even if you happen to don’t care how the multiplayer sausage acquired made, as a result of that’s additionally the place Vadim clues you in to these particular choices. As he says, Caveblazers wasn’t designed with free-aiming in thoughts, however the vidgam police aren’t going to cease you. Being in a position to skip the primary stage as soon as it turns into outdated hat is an choice that every one roguelikes ought to in all probability have by default.
Caveblazers itself is cracking, earlier than it drives off a cliff. Old Adam stated as a lot in his Caveblazers review, although I betcha he didn’t see the final boss.
You can nab Caveblazers Together straight from Steam, no fuss like.
