I’ve been playing a lot of blazing beaks with a friend of mine, and I’ve been interested in other indie games which take this arcade approach of being infinitely replayable whilst still being a multiplayer experience that I can maybe take on a goal to play with a friend
Any recommendations?
- Castle Crashers is a classic multiplayer beat-em-up. Plays great on Proton (if that’s important).
- Lost Castle is in a similar vein, though more roguelike.
- River City Girls (and sequels) is either great arcade brawler.
- Neurovoider
Great indie co-op games:
- Deep Rock Galactic. No split screen, but endlessly repayable with goals and targets in each mission. Also fun in solo.
- Caveblazers
- Guacamelee
- Tunche
Upcoming games to consider:
- Wizard of Legend 2
My partner and I like Boomerang Fu, Stick Fight, and Towerfall. I think there are a few more but can’t think of them right now. There’s not much of a goal other than competing though
If you want to test your friendship you can try 100%ing Super Bunny Man!
Broforce
Clone Drone in the Danger Zone
SpiderHeck
I’ve never played The Binding of Isaac’s multiplayer, but it’s an incredible game, infinitely replayable, and has full co-op now (as in you each have a full character rather than just “little brother mode”)
