Duhh, can't believe I missed that. Thanks!

The multiplayer campaign is way shorter than the singleplayer campaign right?

One thing I love, is the timer at the end. You can go slow and steady through the levels, having a blast, but if you attempt to get as low a time as possible... you sort of feel proper 80s action hero as you run and gun.

Great game. Only thing I don't like is the automatic switching of the character when you free someone. I get bummed when it switches me to BroGyver.

I've started speedrunning this game already since it's just too perfect for that not to. You can do some levels ridiculously fast. The only thing kinda sucking about it is the RNG in what bro you get.

Just remember that I found this by accident. So I dunno if it's something planned that they've put the framework in for or if it's some thing was planned but was removed and the framework is still there.

Thank you everyone who purchased our early access game!!! All this money is going straight into luxurious travels oversized TVs beer development of Broforce, and here's the first update (of many).

We got a lot of feedback that the campaign had gotten too long and unmanageable. BROFORCE had to shoot/knife/explode their way through the entire campaign to visit any new locations to liberate.

So we've developed a way to deliver intel on new liberation-ready locations for BROFORCE to fly to in their freedom chopper. We now provide a visualization of the globalization of your democratization!

It's still very early and rough of course. Any feedback is appreciated!

This game is way more fun than it should be. It hits that perfect rhythm of fast carnage and death and experimentation that Hotline Miami did. (I know its not the same devs) It has a similar style too, which while being really lo-fi is pretty stylish.

The bros, the bros are so cool. Some of them are obviously way better than others but that's kinda the point.

This game is so much Super Crate Box meets Hotline Miami and I love it.

Still haven't gotten the hang of all of the melee-oriented bros yet. Regardless, I'm holding out for Broce Lee to enter the arena at some point.

Because the art style is fairly simple and each bro only has a couple mechanics, I'm really hoping they'll just continue to pump out new bros all through development.

After they work out the campaign modes that's all the game needs, just as many bros as possible.

Blade's "grenade" attack is really really good, so that helps for him. I think he's the only melee one I have so far.

You can ride mech suits now

Indiana Brones has had a re-work

You can now save custom levels after playing them

Additive load in the level editor lets you combine campaigns you've created

The Mammoth Kopter boss is slightly less soul destroying... but no less building destroying...

I saw some variant of Chuck Norris with a grenade launcher and a cluster grenade special attack, is he an accidental new one as well? Or a rework of some bro.

Seems to be, only 2 official bros added and now you can't be the Chuck Norris variant anymore.

Do we have the rest of the the expendables yet? Terry Crews and all the rest would be perfect.

We need Jason Brotham, Bro Ludgren, Stone Cold Bro Austin, Jet Bro,

Also where is Bro, James Bro? or Clint Browood?

Weird, I got the alternate Chuck Norris. Forgot to play around with him much, though. My bad, though, it's Missing in Action Chuck (specifically, Braddock: Missing in Action 3 where he had the honkin' big grenade launcher. Brodock?), Invasion USA was the super-phallic rocket launcher.

So far it looks like Time Bro might have a shockwave at the end of his burst fire shots? Can't tell yet.

Indie got his whip and his flare gun changed, and his flare gun is pretty dang different now.

How did they change the whip? I really enjoyed the Worms style ninja rope, although I guess you could potentially skip through a level that way really fast.

Ooh, good catch.

Updated the Guide post. As always, feel free to correct me on anything.

Also I had some weirdness with either Broniversal Soldier or the Boondock Bros, or both. Not sure. I think I hit my revive function as soon as I died and switched to Boondock Bros, and immediately got the spare bro killed. Somehow Broniversal soldier becomes my second, and the concept of Boondock Saints became a lot more rad.
