Game Description
HERETICAL is a top-down shoot 'em up with a twist: the two heroes are fighting simultaneously in two places, and it's up to you to keep them alive at the same time!

How does your game tie into the theme?
You play as two characters that are reflections of the other: an angel in hell and a demon in heaven. Furthermore, they are physically and visually symmetric, being at all times in opposite sides of the screen. Gameplay-wise, they each have a gameplay style that's the opposite of the other one

Wow! Cool entry! Really enjoyed the variety of weapons. The music was very intense and the top down shooter mechanic was really well implemented.

Really cool and ambitious game! I really like the concept and the variety of weapons and enemies.

Really like the sound effects but the volume of the sound at the end of each level blew my ears off, haha.

I'd join the others in saying that it would be even cooler if the two characters could influence each other somehow.

Thanks for the feedback!

This game is pretty fun! Though I do think that swapping between the characters could be improved, since it feels like you're just playing two separate games at once.
