I've beaten this game twice. I think this was one of the best uses of a $20 bill I ever had. I played it on release on Steam and gotta say that my first ever run of the game was pure hell. It's a game that will challenge you. The old styled animations and such are a treat to see. The game is pretty straightforward. If you've ever liked Gunstar Heroes or Contra, this game is right up your alley. During it's first release, it had it's glitches but at the same time it was still playable. Recently, during a stream of mine... I think King Dice glitched. How this glitch came about, I wish I knew. But this is still a good purchase and a good time whether you wanna do it all by yourself or with a friend. Be careful though as this game does not have online co-op but good ole couch co-op! For those of you on PC, Parsec is the way to go. For those of you going with console... hopefully your system of choice has share play or you have a sibling or friend nearby. Maybe not in these trying times but Studio MDHR did a swell job with this. Still waiting on my Cuphead cartoon and my sequel...
