Exactly what I needed, a fun coop game. It does what it says on the tin, its fun, its Double Dragon, it has a few rogue-lite elements and while not the hardest game its certainly challenging enough for a run with a friend and the best kind of coop experience. The music is great, making good use of the classic Double Dragon theme songs, nice variety and quite a few things to unlock to make it re-playable and more enjoyable. Certainly recommended

Initially felt a bit meh about it but as I played I got more and more into it. Gameplay feels super tight once you learn some good combos, plus it's a lot of fun to try out all the different story endings, game modes and unlockable characters/stages. Grab it on sale and it's a solid beat 'em up!

thank you for making this game, i played a lot of Double Dragon II: The Revenge on my dads NES. and although i was trash, i still had fun. coming to the franchise again YEARS later and seeing it modern day has filled me with nothing but enjoyment and fun. this game is really awesome and pure fun, its devil may cry but 2d beat em up. GREAT GAME, VERY FUN, GREAT COMBOS, GAME FEELS FLUID TOO.

I highly recommend this game to old-school brawler fans. It's phenomenal. The way they made combos and health and energy and coins and all that flow into one seamless resource... it's just elegant in a way I've not seen before. I'm 50 and have played a lot of brawlers. This one does a lot of things I wish had been implemented long ago. For example... if you combo a big finishing move against 3 enemies at the same time (which means you got their health down to a dangerous level, positioned them, have the required energy for the special move and hit them all at the same time) you'll be rewarded with a small meal that boosts your health. Catch 4, get a bigger meal. I think 5 is the biggest. They stay on the ground for you or your teammate (or your tag character) to eat as needed. This allows them to throw in endless mooks during boss fights for you to setup as health banks while also focusing on beating down the boss. This multi tasking adds a lot of excitement to what might otherwise be a repetitive experience once you'd memorized the boss' patterns. You also have to maneuver around them while attacking the boss so you don't squander their health resources by killing them too early. The fact that an unskilled player can still play the game by mindlessly killing all the enemies in 1's and 2's and getting no benefits but that someone who takes care and plans can benefit greatly from their patience and skill makes for a 'play as you like' sort of experience. As you raise the difficulty, the skill and planning becomes a necessity. It's depth that most brawlers lack. There is also the level selection order mattering greatly, but I'll just say that of the 4 options, the first one you choose will last one of it's potentially 4 max levels. The second 2, and so on to the last zone being the one you go all the way through to the final boss at it's maximum difficulty. So you have a lot of replay just to see the entirety of all 4 zones. If you really hate one, go their first. There are a ton of special characters to unlock with the coins you get from the combos. Those coins also buy you character upgrades allowing you to focus on upgrading the moves and stats that appeal to your play style. This becomes very handy in Survival mode, which is awesome. I will say that my favorite character, Abobo, is beyond broken in SM. You can get him to the point where he cannot lose and goes indefinitely. I eventually just had to give up because he was never going to lose. But still a lot of fun getting there. That's the thing. On top of everything else, the gameplay is just a lot of fun all along. Give it some time though. At first I didn't know what the hell I was doing and it seemed awkward and confusing. When it clicks, it all makes sense.

Criminally underrated. One of the better beat 'em ups in recent years. Hope more people discover it.
