From the Dead Nation/Super Stardust devs. Looks cool.

It does have online co-op. No idea if the levels are any different in co-op though. The demo is pretty short but you get the gist of it. Switch between red and blue to get around and stuff. You need to be the same colour as a platform to stand on it, the opposite colour of an enemy to attack, and the same colour as projectiles to not get hit by them.

Oh, there are special co-op challenges dotted around the levels that you can't access alone.

There aren't any co-op challenges in the demo stage. I hear you can also revive the other person if they die, but I think co-op would be more of a hindrance in this game, outside of the specific challenges.

Are you calling me a hindrance? I'll make sure you die in every level, i play anything with you.

It's a good game by the way. It's kind of a bullet hell platformer in parts. Jumping between platforms while switching colours to avoid the various patterns of red and blue pellets can be fun and a pain. The second boss fight was pretty cool too.

4th boss was quite hard. First part was really fun though.

Final boss was tough. Felt great to win though. Now that I think about it, the beam attack would have helped a lot in that fight, but I completely forgot about it.

My save point just before the final boss has 7 hours on it. I haven't gone back to find all the items though (they only unlock concept art), and there's special areas that can only be done in co-op. There's an arcade mode for time trials and stuff too, which I never touched.

Fucking hell that first boss fight was awesome.
I love how they try to burn the light vs dark, and the game mechanis into your head even on the first boss.
Housemarque is hands down one of the best developers ever. I seriously can't wait till they got more cash to work on some solid full retail games.

The second and final bosses are the best.

Yeah, because it's still a physical enemy. It's only same-color projectiles that don't hurt you.

Co-op would be brilliant without the lag. Still fun though. Co-op story mode should be more of a laugh because there's no time limit.
