The studio behind roguelikelike platformer Rogue Legacy immediately launched their new sport, the cooperative action-RPG beat ’em up Full Metal Furies. It’s so into cooperation–in different native or on-line type for as much as 4 gamers–that even the singleplayer possibility will let Nigel Nae-Pals swap between characters mid-fight for monster combos. Rogue Legacy is a goodun so ooh let’s see about this.
So! There are baddies. They’re unhealthy. You wish to kick the dickens out of them. We play because the Furies, a group of 4–a Fighter, Sniper, Engineer, and Tank–who’ve their very own weapons and talents. Pick your individual, smash enemies, battle bosses, degree up, get neat weapons and powers, and on you go.
Oh, however the sport has an Ikaruga twist. All enemies are colour-coded and may solely be harm by sure colors, so gamers actually might want to watch their mates. (Or your self, Nige – in singleplayer, you decide two lessons to change between on the press of a button.) I’m fairly within the concept of forcing reliance and cooperation, as even co-op video games can undergo from greed and showboating. Oh, and about greed: sure, it additionally shares gold and whatnot with everybody. Be buddies. WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.
Full Metal Furies is out now, priced at £15/€20/$20 on Steam and the Humble Store.
