ridiculously violent, just like the 80s action movies -- from which most of the playable characters originate...

Think Metal Slug meets the 80s/90s over-the-top America@%&#Yeah action heroes.

Cool pixelated explodey goodness, allowing not just co-op, but up to 4 ~~players~~bros!

found via an epic Markiplier LP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_mX0Qh_3-A

ALSO there's apparently a web-playable version here or here (Unity Player required)

It's pretty insane yeah, I've actually had Mercenary Kings (along a similar line) in Steam waiting for me to play it for a while (though with less direct parodies for sure) it still looks like a fun arcade-y shooter

Tried the web version and 2 minutes in I was like WHOA* this baby is utterly addictive. The MacGyver is kinda lame but the rest are fantastic; unlocking Bro-Blade was just like he said in the Markiplier video WOW COOL I didn't want to play any other character... Until I unlocked the Judge Dredd one -- his special weapon (aka "grenade" for most) is an over-sized guided missile! Over The Top Explodey Fun!

*yes, there's a Mr. Bronderson aka Nee-Bro..
