Warlocks 2: God Slayers
Warlocks 2: God Slayers is a humorous action RPG game with online and local co-op. Challenge the vile gods and dethrone them in this action-packed hack’n' slash experience with wizards and meteor showers. God Slayers is a brand new story. Take the role of one of the Warlocks and face the gods themselves, as slashing hordes of shadow monsters in the past have angered them, to say the least. The Order of Warlocks has been called to challenge and dethrone arrogant gods from the thrones – make them pay for their betrayal. Core features: Hilarious pixel art with hand-drawn animations. Dynamic hack 'n slash experience in solo, local and online co-op (up to 4 players). More than 40 types of challenging enemies that work together to take you down, using their unique skill sets. 5 different types of Warlocks to choose, each with their own abilities to unlock throughout the game. Special familiar slot for your character (with evolutions!). 8-10 hours of gameplay to complete the solo adventure with one Warlock. Giant, powerful bosses waiting to get slayed. Extensive maps with tons of randomly generated loot to be picked up. Colorful narration with plenty of jokes and humour.

I don't really understand all the negativity in the reviews on Steam for this game... This game is far from being half as bad as some people pretend it to be. In fact it reminded me a lot of Blades of Vengeance on the sega genesis.
Totally recommend this game even if there are some minor flaws here and there. (I read that not all characters can reach some secret areas but like always I say they're simply not trying hard enough!)

Positives:
Genuinely funny.
Local co-op.
Looks good, excellent pixel art and motif.
Great game for playing with casuals, such as your SO.
Negatives:
Does not run at 4k, need to set desktop to 1080P resolution before playing. (Almost refunded purchase because of this--please fix.)
Sometimes runs less than smooth.
Controls can't be configured anyplace but in the main menu, somewhat inconvenient. Default control schemes aren't so great.
Steam controller needs to be configured, no existing profiles (what else is new).
With a few patches this game would be really awesome, without still very playable.

I really like this game despite its flaws.
Word of warning: Do not play with a controller the aim is to too slow and the lock on is terrible.
Some platforms like the ones in tutorial area and the faun god boss room simply do not stand out are are difficult to notice, thankfully this is not an issue in later levels. This might be resolved by adding a gamma slider but i can not be sure.
Another issue I have is the rapid loss of healing items in the faun god boss fight: Spent 20 healing items just trying to stop his regeneration or to kill those floating enemy resurrecting jerkbags, only to die? Well have fun farming healing items just so you can try again.
Speaking of healing items why do the same stacking items heal for different amounts? example: Healing item A heals for 30% or the next time its 35% and then after that maybe its 24% ect...
The game does not really inform the player of how necessary a ranged attack is until the Faun God, and it does so by killing you. Repeatedly. The same goes with certain bosses and their instant kill attacks. As well as the dash moves and other movement abilities. Not for combat, but just being able to get around the map and find the "secret" set items.
Final edit: Always pick the purple egg.
All in all its a great game that is totally worth its price.

Nice game. I like it retro graphic style and animated movements. Playable characters are very original and fun with lots of skills to discover, stuff to wear and enemy to defeat. Classic 2d rpg with light and humorous plot.

Excellent 2d Action RPG platformer exploring game. The game has various classes to choose from, each with unique skills, and lots of different items and gear to collect and use. I've been playing using the Steam Controller and it works real well. There are a lot of areas to explore and numerous enemies and bosses to fight through, with quests and side quests to complete.
I really like the retro graphics, which are very well done, with some great art, and the randomized loot. I don't have many hours on record yet, although it appears to be the type of game that I could spend many many hours on. The skill tree may appear fairly basic at first, although skills can be upgraded, and in some cases they can be upgraded to modify other skills. This adds a bit more complexity to each characters abilities.
This game reminds me a bit of the great 8-bit game, Nemesis The Warlock, although with more platforming and exploring aspects like Ghosts 'n' Goblins, sort of. Plus the ability to equip different types of armour, and weapons, to suit your chosen class, is really awesome. It's really like a really excellent 8-bit game, with more depth.
The story has good humour, and the sound track is really good too - really beautiful music in some places, with themes arriving at certain points that fit the gameplay really well. The game just feels really well made and has lots of nice surprises and cool features, best left discovered by the player!
A really excellent well made retro style 2d Action RPG platformer. 10/10.

When you play this at first you think of a quirky platformer with action based combat. You are right to think it... But it is more... It's a silly action adventure where you can play as a Goatman riding on a Dwarf-centaur...
Yes you heard me right... a dwarf-centaur... It's an interesting game with the main premise of having fun...
Just don't think the game will hold your hand while playing it. It bloody will not...
You have a small amount of health and each attack has a small cooldown from 0.5 seconds to a 5 second cooldown...
It's brutal, but fair...
Each level has a hidden chest in an "unreachable" place at the start usually requiring a superjump. This usually contains armour/items that give special bonuses making your character stronger so you can do more damage etc.
This is a good game it also has Co-op. I highly recommend this game on the first premise alone. Enjoy :3
