Made by the people who made Swords and Soldiers, this is supposed to be a side-scrolling MOBA(DoTA-type) game for XBLA and PSN. Looks interesting to me, and the music is awesome, but I'm worried about there being enough people playing it. I'll have to wait on the price for it to see if I'll buy it.

Here's a link a hands-on impression from E3 : http://indiegames.com/2011/06/e3_2011_hands-on_impressions_o_2.html

Ya. Imagine it would do good on PC, due to the fact that you can type to each other, and it's light on the graphics enough to where anyone could run it.

I played this yesterday and all I can say is that i enjoyed it very much. It's very refreshing to the MOBA genre, since you can dodge attacks and it just feels more free.

Lovin' it

It's a MOBA and it costs money, so not only am I not going to buy it, it's not going to take off, that's a promise.

I know $10 is ridiculous, I wish it was like LoL where I had the option of paying hundreds of dollars or playing thousands of hours to unlock stuff. This is just a slap in the face!

Or you just play Dota 2 where you get all the heroes, which are over 100 when done, for free. Which also happens to be a FAR better game than any other moba.

moba discussion is boring guys. Its all subjective and 10 million people wouldnt play LoL if they thought the other games were better.

But with a handful of good moba games thzat are free, most people will have no interest in this game.
Im interested in it, but im hestitant to spend so much on a indie game that probably has no player base.

Tried it, it was okay. I had fun ganking noobs with the assassin lizard guy. The cast is not very large, and the fact that every game is 3v3 with mostly small maps feels a bit limiting in terms of strategy. Comparing it to DotA or even LoL really isn't fair, they are far deeper games. I think this game is closer to Smash Bros/Lost Saga than it is to DotA.

I bought this today, and it is pretty fun. Not much more than you'd expect out of $10. I wouldn't compare it to League of Legends or DotA or DotA 2. It is fairly simple, each Hero (I guess that is what you'd call them) only has two real abilities in addition to jump and the basic attack. There is only one turret too and the shop doesn't have too many items. It definitely feels more like Super Smash Bros as mentioned above. There aren't really any lanes aside from the main one with the turret, but it does have platforms and layers. I think there is a Jungle-esque thing but I didn't really look into it. I'm not really sure how unlocking Heroes works either, as I only had a few available to me.
If you have some friends who are looking for something new to play together I'd definitely consider this.

It's a casual moba, with a small player base, i never played much lol and have no patience to get into the meta game and all that crap, so i really like playing this!

Is the player base disappointing?

I was excited when I saw it on Steam because it reminded me of Altitude. I pretty much hate MOBA games but the 2d aspect intrigues me.

I will buy it if the player base isn't a joke.

I can play this game for hours on end. It's so much fun it's a platformer MOBA so you can dodge attacks, instead of in top down Moba/RTS where shots always hit.

Trust me it's a lot of fun and the skill ceiling is very very high imho.

Love this game

And I always find players to play against/with. With a friend or two you can play arranged team too which is a lot of fun.

So this game is confirmed awesome.

I usually can't stand MOBA games but this one is amazing. I was immediately drawn in by the exciting gameplay. The 2d platformer style really adds an element of skill to the game.

Also, the visual style and music in the game are surprisingly captivating. When I saw the video preview I thought it would be lame and childish, but I have been thoroughly impressed.

Definitely worth it if you want to try a different MOBA that is unlike anything on the market currently. Or if you are a fan of 2d games like Altitude or Gang Garrison.
