The Bottom Line:
"Just plain fun"
This is just awesome. For those of you who remember Alien Hominid we all would know the art in this game right off the bat. I loved Alien Hominid, it is part of my childhood so when I heard about this I could not resist to play this and needless to say I am satisfied.

The gameplay has simple mechanics added that really form to make something pretty enjoyable. It is hack n slash where you have a light attack and strong attack button and you mix it up to form different combos. You can also use magic which is for the most part ok at first but it gets better the more you level up. Its simple but really enjoyable. They added some RPG elements to add more flavor to the hack n slash formula. When you level up you gain skill points that you can use to increase your strength, magic, defense, and agility. When you reach a specific level you can acquire a new combo to spice up the combat even more!...........4.5/5

The music is enjoyable. Most of the songs fit the mood to the level and others just make you feel like you want to bop your head. The variety is just perfect and fits the art style in this game.......5/5

The graphics are incredible art wise. The characters, backgrounds, and practically everything are like from a doodle book come to life! If you knew Alien Hominid then you know how this art is like. Very unique that always put a smile on my face.........5/5

Multiplayer is great locally. You have an awesome campaign where you can play by yourself but it is even greater when you play with a couple a friends. This game has really awesome co-op and is the basis for it. There are some levels where having another player with you is a good idea.....4/5

Overall this game is one of a kind. With its awesome art, music, and simple but enjoyable gameplay with co-op this game is a steal. I loved every single moment of this game.
