As 2013 draws to an end and we look ahead to what the new year and next gen consoles will bring, there's plenty that's happened over the past year that's worth a bit of a revisit. Here, then, is a recap of some of the stand out Indie-Ana Co-Op features over the past several months, and my own personal list of favorite indie games I've played in 2013.
In this episode of Indie-Ana Co-Op, we "game with the devs" at Dinosaur Games, developers of MechKnight Chronicles: Knightfall. The co-op side scrolling brawler is reminiscent of Guardian Heroes, Knights of the Round, and many other classics, and is currently in development for PC/Mac. Jesse Sosa, the owner and creative director at Dinosaur Games, talks about the inspiration behind MechKnight Chronicles, the episodic nature of the game, and their plans for what is to come.
One of the more classic forms of co-op games is the brawler/beat-em-up genre. From Streets of Rage to the up-and-coming Dragon's Crown, we all enjoy a solid co-op brawler from time to time. The developers at newly formed Dinosaur share that sentiment are currently developing their first game, MechKnight Chronicles. We only have a little information at this time about the game, but so far, it's looking very promising. Inspirations for the title read like a greatest hits of the brawler and they're currently working to ensure the game has 4-player online, local, and, ideally, LAN, co-op.
