Edit: Sudden death has been removed, I've put another edit below talking about the new revenge mode that replaced it. Thanks so much to the devs for listening to the community's feedback! Sorry if I was a bit harsh I was definitely upset while writing this review after coming off a few failed multiplayer runs in public lobbies Please note: this portion of my review are about the state of the game in its 0.1 early access state: I really do love this game, even in its early access state. The gameplay is highly responsive and fluid, the mechanics involving the use of two weapons, in particular alterattacks, lead to an engaging loop of dodging and getting off high damage combos. The bosses are challenging while still feeling fair with the dodge being rather forgiving allowing you to avoid attacks possibly even while panic dashing and ensuring that you never take a hit if you play defensively and pay attention. I enjoyed this game thoroughly throughout its singleplayer experience and looked forward to trying some public lobbies for co-op since none of my friends have the game. This is where the few gripes I have with the game come in, I take severe issue with the mechanic of sudden death, and I think that it should absolutely be removed from the game, no questions asked. At the very least give us the option to turn it off. The balancing factor of scaling health to multiplayer feels to be already enough in my opinion, to punish all players when one goes down by nullifying any health they had left feels extremely unfair. It is frustrating at best and renders builds unplayable at worst. Many builds at best such as regen or tank builds are completely ruined by this mechanic. I don't understand the point in co-op when you essentially only have one life given if one person goes down everyone else is one shot (particularly on bosses where you cant remove the debuff unless you kill the boss). The scaling of enemy health already makes it hard enough for one player to carry, and I think its not a bad thing for one player to be able to take down a boss with potentially tripled health if they have the skill (not exactly sure if multiplayer health scaling is purely multiplicative based off how many players you have but I assume that is how it works). What I don't think is reasonable is forcing the player to not take a single hit while doing so, to punish a player who's already in a rough situation even further feels insane to me. An option like this in any other game would be an unlockable difficulty modifier, but it being on by default feels so insanely unfair to me. I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to touch the multiplayer until this issue is fixed. Despite the huge rant, I really do love this game, its core gameplay is great. Its just the multiplayer feels like its been ruined. And for sure this is not as much of an issue (though still an issue) in private lobbies where you can communicate with your buddies to play careful and get back, but public lobbies feel like a nightmare with this mechanic. Version 0.2 Edit (minor boss spoilers): Sudden death has been replaced with revenge mode! I like this system a lot better as it no longer punishes you for building health in multiplayer, though it still invalidates certain boons like lifesteal flasks that makes perfect sense to me when due to the 100% damage buff in this mode not being entirely compatible with a buff like that. You can also revive teammates during bosses now! I went into a public lobby and played a game with somebody who went down during headbanger and to my surprise they revived!. It would seem that killing pillars pulls off 4 stacks and killing a brother in the final boss immediately ends revenge mode. The flat 100% increased damage taken feels a lot better than the previous system, as it was confusing that the damage would increase further when multiple teammates go down (makes a lot more sense that I would get one shot sometimes in sudden death but others I would be able to take a hit or two). There seems to be some divide on how exactly everyone feels about it with some believing that it makes the game too easy but I for one definitely find the multiplayer way more fun with this change. Correct me if I'm wrong but I assume that multiplayer scales enemy health by +100% per player added, so to those who say that it feels too easy the damage buff per downed player is essentially just buffing you to counteract the number of missing players, so you are doing as much damage as you would in single-player/two player, except you are taking double the damage as you would in single/two player (so still a straight debuff). I do not think that is overpowered at all and find it to be a far more fair and fun to play with system! If you want the game to be more punishing there are difficulty modifiers for that, and having played and won on each one in singleplayer I believe those are far better ways of introducing difficulty and challenge rather than the rather harsh former system of sudden death (you also get cool skins when completing higher difficulties now!) . Multiplayer to me was a major selling point to me, and while I'm not gonna (and probably wouldn't be able to) convince my buddies to buy the game until full release, before the revenge update multiplayer felt like an afterthought, with only enemy scaling and what felt to me like an unfair underdeveloped system (sudden death). Thanks again to the devs for the changes, I'm excited for the future updates.

It's like Dead Cells, but top down and with co-op. What else is there to say? It's early access, and content is somewhat limited, but foundation is more then solid and there's already plenty of toys to play with. Devs supported their previous game for 7 years both with free small and major updates as well as 4 DLCs. If they can put half as much effort in this game, it would be top tier.

I absolutely love this game, especially with the new beta of the first big batch patch update. I almost wish this rogue-like die-and-retry game was made in an open-world setting, so that I could explore the biomes and learn all of the lore behind who we meet at the start, dive deeper into the character's stories atop the ARk, and find out who - or what - decided to create the biome. The characters to unlock are all adorable, and their designs give off a lot of individuality and character. The difficulty increases at a just slightly harder than you'd hope pace, which makes it challenging and enjoyable to continue to level up, unlock new gifts, trinkets, and weapons, and finally get that boss! I've enjoyed and been frustrated with my defeats playing this game solo, and I've had just as much fun and frustration playing along with my friends these past couple of months. The creators of this game should be so proud of themselves - you can tell they deeply love their idea and what they have created. The individuality of the playable characters; the emotes of some of the biggest bads; the fact that one of the little enemies spins too much and falls down; little treats in the background art that tell you more about the world - all this and more make it so easy to tell how much love and care went into creating such an enjoyable experience. I can't say THANK YOU! enough for this game's existence, and I cannot wait to keep playing in the future! I recommend this game!

Its like Hades but with friends. P.S. The intro trailer has no reason to hit as hard as it does. Well done!

this game is great, if it will get same or even near level of support like dead cells its gonna be crazy fun when more biomes, weapons and gifts come out.
