Games like Bloodstained and Yokee Layle are spiritual successors. I feel like I'm beating a dead horse with this so I'll just say that once again, Gunslugs 2 feels like a downgraded copy of Broforce. I enjoyed having this discussion with both you and @Mookums
Thank you!

Me as well. I enjoyed having a differing of opinions that lead to an intelligent conversation instead of a downright argument as most places of the internet would lead too. Thanks for this! Have a goodnight!

While it is always impressive when games are made by one person, the comparisons to Broforce are clear as day. Before I delve into why, let me state that Broforce began development at a 2012 Game Jam, well before Gunslugs 2 showed a trailer.

The comparisons to Broforce can be made when noticing how Gunslugs 2 has spoofs of action heroes (which has admittedly been done before). However, these heroes are obtained in cages in enemy bases. Additionally, the heroes and weapons able to be used in the game are the same as the ones in Broforce. Worst of all, is how Gunslugs 2 removes destructible environments.

Gunslugs 2 is a downgraded copy of Broforce and adds nothing to the formula of which it copies.

Toby Fox said that Undertale was inspired by Earthbound. He adds in new elements while keeping some factors from his stated inspiration.

Gunslugs 2 has not stated its inspired by anything, but is easily comparable to better games such as Broforce that came before it. In fact, its a downgrade from games like Broforce.

Undertale has little to nothing to do with the comparison of Gunslugs 2 to Broforce. It is inspired by something. It doesn't copy a formula of another game and downgrade it in the process.

Gunslugs 2 released in October and Broforce released in April. They both released in the year 2015. Broforce began development in 2012. I don't know when Gunslugs 2 began development, however...

@Alexsora89

I do admit that games should not normally be compared to each other if you enjoy them. But, since I played Broforce first and have yet to be proven wrong about it being developed later than GunSlugs 2, Gunslugs 2 feels like a stripped down rip off of Broforce.

Somewhat agreed, but I still had hindered enjoyment with Gunslugs 2 because I kept realizing/thinking that. I just wish the game had more to offer as I can see the potential it had to be better.

Re: Renegade Kid Has Kindly Offered To Port Sonic Mania To Nintendo 3DS

I believe it should be put on the 3DS for a chance at a descent profit plus the ability to have people play it on the go. The NX is a give-in for having it as its a new console. The WiiU is a maybe as it would give a mild profit with the small amount of units sold. I think it could be added to the WiiU if its put on the 3DS. Its been done with Revelations and MH3U. I hope it gets ported to at least one console.

I find this highly stupid. All games have similarities. For God's sake just look at all the Minecraft clones on 3DS and WiiU. I hope this situation comes to a conclusion where your game remains (or returns if it has already been removed) on the Eshop. Best of luck!
