@aaronsullivan Thank you! Yes I think it will be a great co-op experience with your son. Controls are left right and you can change layers (foreground/background) + use special attacks. Sprites are also not auto-running anymore. It's optimized for controllers compared to Slayin 1 which was optimized for Touch controls
@DrDaisy Nintendolife misread our Tweet, Slayin 2 is not an endless action RPG and they just used our old 2013 App Store description of Slayin 1. Here's the official description for Slayin 2 which is going to be released in the coming days so you're properly informed:
"Slayin returns and this time you can bring a friend!
Engage endless hordes of monsters up close as a valiant knight, or shower them with arrows, bombs and spells using 8 unlockable heroes with completely different skillsets and playstyles.
Face the forces of darkness alone or team up with a friend in local co-op with a drop-in multiplayer feature.
Watch each others backs, hoard treasures, revive your fallen teammate and keep up your combos in your endless pursuit of fame and fortune.
Unravel ancient mysteries, defeat legendary bosses and discover hidden areas while you explore the world of Slayin 2.
8 characters with individual weapons and playstyles (Knight, Archer, Sorceress and many more)
@DockEllisD Yes it's an FDG published game. All opinions welcome, I always love to comb through the internet and check the temperature. Good or bad it's always helpful ^_^
@WickedUnicarnBoi Slayin 2 is much bigger, yup. Did you play the V2.0 update on mobile? That added more heroes and was a very popular free content update.
Woah, some really harsh comments This is a quality game and the description for Slayin 1 isn't a good fit for Slayin 2 as the console sequel goes way beyond part 1. Also, only part 1 was the 'first endless action rpg'.
@Panopticon It's a complicated matter but I don't know why Monster World wasn't included in Genesis classics on Switch. As for Monster Boy vs. Wonder Boy: The 'Wonder Boy' trademark is indeed complicated to obtain nowadays because Sega initially didn't extend the worldwide registration and a Korean company was also involved. We chose to reduce the risk by picking a different name and we liked it anyway. Still, Monster Boy is content-wise an official sequel to the Monster World series of games.
@zool OMG! I don't like your comment but can't help to still love y'all. we're very grateful for many Nintendo fans who supported this game despite the high price! It's justified though, as its a long game with a lot of variety.
@NintendoPete Thank you for playing! Yeah it's difficult to do a Metroidvania demo without spoiling late game, some may get the impression it's platformer only. We decided to put out a demo anyway so players can check the tech and playability.
@Omega: The game has 6 chapters (=1 world) Each chapter has 12 levels, which is a total of 72 levels per World You have to complete world 1 to see the ending. The additional DLC offers 5 more worlds for 500 Wii Points each. Each DLC for 500 Wii Points contains 72 more levels. The total playtime of the game including all DLC´s is 90 hours... WoOT?!
@Henmii: When the game released on iPhone it was $7.99. The game is not available for iPad and the current price on the App Store is $3.99. Furthermore I wouldn´t compare App Store pricing with Nintendo Releases as it´s a totally different story to release a game on the App Store compared to get a game ready and approved for the WiiWare service. Not even talking about the rev. share, user-count, etc.

Re: Slayin 2 Will Bring "The World's First Endless Action RPG" To Switch
@Henmii The 'endless' only applies to Slayin 1, not Slayin 2

@DrDaisy There's no permadeath in Slayin 2, progress will be saved.
Re: Slayin 2 Will Bring "The World's First Endless Action RPG" To Switch
@Bunkerneath It'll have quests and you move on a world map to select stages with different goals. Also has a town where you buy things and upgrades.
Re: Slayin 2 Will Bring "The World's First Endless Action RPG" To Switch
@DockEllisD So mean! But at least a creative 'pass' xD! Game is good though, wouldn't be surprised to see you as player later
