Just found this quality video! These are some of the best gameplay/preview edits I've ever seen in youtube. Will definitely share it with friends once I start nagging them into playing it. Keep it up and see you around on release!

[@franciscovelasco5422]

Could you please do a "best 100 coop games of all time" video please? I'm curious to see any games you know about that I don't plus I want to see the rankings you give to older games that were released before the creation of this channel

[@Nickey90]

100?? You realize how many that is? That's like a year+ long project X)

[@franciscovelasco5422]

@@Nickey90Well they could dedicate 10-15 seconds to each game to make it feasible

[@NegativeROG]

Hell, how about a "Every Single Game Ever Made" video, with each game featured for 1.842 seconds? Sounds reasonable.

[@tytan555]

Glad I could help getting the footage.

[@TheCoOpBros]

Yesss thank you so much!!

[@ronaldwalstad7747]

Thank you sir this looks so much fun

[@fabionunes7081]

game looks very cool. will definitly keep it under my radar

[@KhaosElement]

Loved this demo, it was tons of fun. Can't wait to play the whole thing.

[@kfk4441]

It has been fun, I hope this game gets success...And lore

[@facu8405]

New subscriber here! I was loving rotwood even before knowing that was a co-op but now it will be a MUST for me! do we have any estimated on when it will release oficially?

[@ElieHaykal]

This was one of the best demos I played in the steam next fest

[@ImCptnAwesome]

Cool video guys. This game has a charming art style. Hopefully it has a difficulty select. I honestly can't stand difficult games. Devs think that if you play with friends, you want higher difficulty, this could not be further from the truth for me though. 😅

[@Fleepwn]

I don't have much info about the game, but roguelikes often have "fluid" difficulty. I mean, you're totally exposed to losing to a minor enemy an hour into a run, as well as you're able to defeat the final boss in under half an hour after starting a new save, it really depends, but I haven't seen many that have a difficulty selection. That said, if you master dodge enough, it will definitely make the gameplay much easier for you for sure.

[@qlasalle]

You might like a lot of afk mobile games instead you should stay in your lane... I mean you should try them out!

[@NegativeROG]

I feel like Klei is making games for me, personally. The art style, no matter the game, is just so... COMFORTABLE... even if it's in a terrifying night forest in the Constant, and bats are escaping trees I chop.

[@Haethorr]

the early access is out now!

[@ChronoChristian]

Rotwooooooooood!

[@acesauce_media]

Would be cool to play on ps5. I think I need a steam deck oled…

[@wolfwoof2000]

Texting that from my steam deck, it runs so well on it !

[@jaymanilla289]

is this on PC? ps4?

[@ImCptnAwesome]

It's confirmed for Steam on PC, no release date yet. It is not currently confirmed for console, but hopefully it gets a console release (I think this would be a great Switch game). I've heard that most indie developers launch on PC before launching on console, because when you update a game on console you have to pay the console manufacturer a fee for them to make sure there's no system-damaging malware on it or something to that effect.

[@G1mb3ly]

Is it a thick brute or a THICC brute? 🥵

[@brolloks2600]

Is this a sponsored video?

[@Gomezli16]

Oddly specific talking points overview. Paid video?

[@TheCoOpBros]

Hahah I wish lol Naw we aren’t sponsored, paid or anything. I just genuinely wanted to try and explain why I thought this game is different but needed to get, as you say, oddly specific about it haha

[@Gomezli16]

@@TheCoOpBros ok thanks for answering. Will recommend this to my GF. This is not a scripted reply.

[@DanielXavierDosReis]

This game... Is way too similar to Culf of the Lamb.... Very, very very similar.... Isn't odd?

[@TheCoOpBros]

Eh they have similar art styles and are both roguelikes but I’d say they’re fairly different. Cult Of The Lamb puts more emphasis on the cult sim/animal crossing like gameplay. Rotwood is more focused on the dungeon crawling and the enemies are way more complex. Also just having four player co-op makes it pretty different too

[@DanielXavierDosReis]

​@@TheCoOpBrosI mean more related to the style... .The way of hitting enemies, the style of rooms, the camera POV.... Very similar, almost like... "same structure"

[@TheCoOpBros]

I can see that! It’s hard to explain unless you play it yourself but it plays differently for sure. Almost a bit closer to a beat-em-up. And this coming from someone that’s a big fan of Cult Of The Lamb haha

[@SirAedryn]

@@DanielXavierDosReis This is just Castle Crashers x Binding of Isaac, both of which predate Cult of the Lamb. The art style is classic Newgrounds.

[@DanielXavierDosReis]

@ryn I'm not talking about the gaming mechanics, I'm talking about the design and style. And I dunno if Cult of The Lamb got its style from 'newgrounds"... But that's just me

[@XanGious]

Been playtesting this game since last year. Really in depth combat system for a beat em up. Really fun in coop! During the playtest my gf discovered a busted item combo that reflect 4500 damage whenever she get damaged, killing the tree boss in like 5 hits. It's probably fixed now though xd watch?v=O7v5mnS0XGA

[@molivious]

this still worked in the last playtest lol
