![]() Sadly the classes don't really feel like they play off of each other much, so you really just choose the ship with which you're the most comfortable. Picking different ship classes help differentiate players on the screen, but in the chaos, it would have been nice to have player ships be different colors to help tell them apart. There seems to be some minor scaling going on, but for the most part, the gameplay is identical. If you've ever seen physics demos on computers a few years back, it's pretty similar, though much more impressive.Ĭo-Op in Resogun is an online affair as of now, with you and another player playing through the same levels as the single player game. ![]() So as stuff explodes in the game a shower of particles litter the screen. Resogun is built using voxels instead of typical polygons. The levels offer some minor variety in terms of visuals, including lakes, fire, and plenty of stuff that explodes. They aren't overly difficult and the patterns are fairly obvious, but they do add some tension.

The goal of each level is to rescue 10 tiny humans trapped in little square jars. Overdrive is a special attack that deals massive damage (see how I worked a PlayStation 3 launch joke in there?) to enemies and also helps create large scoring chains. While agility governs the speed of the ship, boost is a special move that allows you to quickly move around the level while also being immune to damage. Players can choose from three ships each with their own strengths built around three categories: agility, boost and overdrive. While SS:HD took place on a spherical world, Resogun's levels are cylindrical in nature. Resogun is most similar to Super Stardust HD in that it's a shoot em up arcade game where the goal is to complete levels and gain high scores. ![]() All solid titles, all featuring co-op play in some form or another. Resogun is created by Housemarque, developers of Super Stardust HD, Outland and Dead Nation. Resogun might be in the same boat for the PlayStation 4. For many that was the killer app for Microsoft's console for quite some time. It's hard to talk about Resogun as a "launch title" and not mention Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved on the Xbox 360.
