Really frustrating in some levels where you will get overrun in the first 2 minutes. This was not the case in the 1st game! I lost multiple levels where I could not get a single unit or building finished because too many enemies spawned right away
Story&Gameplay: There is no story but the key element the character and gun handling is on point and never feels unfair while being demanging at the same time. The gamplay varies from fast paced to tactical and is very challenging if you want to finish the levels with 3 stars. You progress through levels with increasing difficulty and learn while playing. There are several characters such as Assault, Recon, Shield and more. They all have different skils and skilltrees. You will unlock skills and weapons that are only usable for you chraracter but also others that are usable by the other chrarcters. This makes the progression very satisfying since you do not have to start from scratch when starting with a new charracter. Visuals&Sound It has a really awesome soundtrack which puts you right into the 80s kind of vibe. It is the first thing you will notice after starting and already makes sitting in the menu kind of exciting. The graphic style is very fitting and makes for a good athmosphere. If you don't like Pixelart it is nothing for you though. Conclusion The game is great in my opinion, especially with friends in Coop. Gameplay is great and visuals and sound will pull you right in. If you can find anything interesting in Hotline Miami, Broforce, Doorkickers and other Sidescrollers like Mark of the Ninja give this game a shot. You wont regret it.
